^ Yes, and there were a few indie games available at or near-launch for Wii U, too, which suggests Nintendo probably did the same thing and reached out to a few indies really early, including ones who they hadn't worked with previously.
I imagine they'll do the same thing this time, but if it's devs they haven't worked with before, it's more of a "don't call us, we'll call you" thing. They'll reach out to devs early on if they feel it's necessary or important.
