If Pokemon romhacks were published by Nintendo on the eShop, would they benefit Nintendo?

Since Polygon apparently brought a couple ROMHacks to my attention, this got me wondering: if Nintendo published them in the eShop (preferably on the Wii U, of course), what would happen?

I personally think that while it would be awesome for Nintendo to recognize the Pokemon fanbase, and would end up being commercial successes, it may end up just diluting the Pokemon brand.

It ought to be cool having "official" Pokemon games that broke the mold, though.
