If it isn't one of Nintendo's big IPs' (Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, etc) mainline games then I'm pretty sure we'll see more partnerships coming up. They've been doing it for a while. It just seems like they're taking advantage of those partnerships more lately.
I'd be surprised if they don't get Sega to make another F-Zero game. There's been plenty of outcry for it, enough for Miyamoto to comment on the fact that people want another, so they'd be crazy to ignore it for another generation.
I just hope for a healthy balance between having 3rd parties work on Nintendo IPs and wrapping up 3rd party exclusives for their systems.
