My bad, you're right. I misread the headlines of your post.
That being said, I would still count some of the indie titles, even if they weren't *officially* published by Nintendo. I know they've done quite a lot to promote anything that they've had a significant degree of exclusivity with.
There is also the long-established point that new IP =/= better. Mario's games are generally very fresh and original even if they use the same mascot. The same might not necessarily be said of a lot of new IPs.
