I've gotta say many smaller studios or studios that make downloadable games don't support Nintendo. I have heard they are pretty pricey to develop for and that Nintendo's quality standards are very high. This makes it difficult for smaller studios to launch new downloadable titles.
Double Fine is a pretty good studio I am sure their titles would meet Nintendo's quality standards. However Dec costs are far higher for Nintendo hardware then iOS, Android, steam and Linux. I am guessing it would cost 800k or so to make a decent WiiWare or 3DSWare title based on Double Fines statement that a good iOS title would cost 400k.
Here's hoping Nintendo can start attracting more developers with WiiU. Nintendo could do something like give a free kit to an established developer in exchange for at least three titles. Imagine Nintendo gave smaller studios that met Nintendo's quality standards free kits.
Nintendo needs quality online software.
