Will Xenoblade X for Wii U be the first (Edit- Second party...my gawd People!!)third party game on the Wii U to break a million in sales?

It's first party. It doesn't matter who made it. Nintendo owns the IP. That's like saying minish cap or w101 are third/second party games.

But... they are...

Minish Cap is 2nd party and Wonderful 101 is 3rd.  Owning an IP doesn't necessarily make a game 1st party, and publishing a game doesn't necessarily make it 2nd.

I think the only "gray area" concerning whats 1st, 2nd, or 3rd party with Nintendo is Pokemon.  The Pokemon Company is owned by Nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures in equal thirds, but Nintendo also owns Creatures and has majority stake in Game Freak.  So Pokemon is like... 1.5th Party?

No, they aren't. Owning an IP absolutely makes a game 1st party. That's like saying that because I let you ride my bike for a day, it's suddenly partly your bike. Minish Cap and W101 are both 1st party games. No gray area there. Pokemon is a first party game.
