They do seem to be working well with a lot of indie devs this gen

I personally think it's a perception issue, and not one that is mostly true today, Minecraft devs because of their success may expect more from Nintendo, but it appears that in general many other indie devs are happy working with Nintendo
Gamasutra asked Indie devs about how they felt working with Nintendo was like, general consensus below
"All developers we spoke with were happy with their experience in working with Nintendo. The company has apparently been generous with loaner development kits and general developer support. According to developers we spoke with, Nintendo has been responsive to the needs of the free-to-play business model as well."... Gamasutra
Still the Minecraft devs are in a position to ask for more and Nintendo may not be offering anything more than what they provide other devs, and a stalemate is the only result
