They don't own the IP but they do own a minority stake in GameFreak who happens to develop the Pokemon games. The fact that Pokemon isn't more "hardcore" or in HD on the WiiU or anything else is not a choice made by Nintendo but by Gamefreak.

if you can't stand it then don't play 10 hours of it next time.

Nintendo owns the IP, game freak develops it. do you think Game freak wouldn't make the game for PSP/iPhone if they owned the rights? it's a money maker.

and they develop exclusively for Nintendo because other than Pokemon, they can only make Soretei horse and Harmoknight. no offence to Game Freak.
