The Nintendo remakes are undoubtedly being handled by second-party studios for the sake of fleshingo ut the library. Nintendo themselves will not be directly involved in any remakes.

Generally remakes are handled by the same group that does the original, though i'll grant the only examples i can think of are Metroid Prime Trilogy which was more of a quick-and-dirty job, and Mario 64 DS, which was back in 2004, right when they restructured the whole company.

Actually Mario 64 DS was done by EAD4, which used to be R&D2, so not really the same team that did Mario 64 way back.  They did all the Mario Advance games as well, and Mario DX on GBC.  They also did BS Zelda, Link's Awakening DX and ALTTP GBA.  

DK Jungle Beat being done by EAD Tokyo for both GC and Wii would count though imo.  Or (more dramatic) R&D1 doing both the original Metroid and Zero Mission.  Or even EAD doing Mario All-Stars.  And besides, it's already been confirmed Konno's team (EAD1) is doing SF64 3D and Aonuma's team (EAD3) is doing OOT 3D, so many of the same staff there.
