Are we one year removed from a small horde of new Nintendo titles?

You are partially right. The drought started at around 2008. 3rd parites started to fill the gap a little after that. However I am not sure if people would include that in the drought or not. If you do then the drought ends at 2010 instead which is the 2nd half of the Wii's life. Nintendo did good in 2007 but after that not so much. 

In 2007 Nintendo released 12 titles. 
In 2008 it was 4. 
In 2009 it was 5 
In 2010 it was 10
In 2011 it was 6
In 2012 it was 5 (two were ports kinda)

Honestly they only got like two good years in terms of numbers. Anyway I remeber the drought in 2008,2009,2011 and 2012. They had more bad years than good years. So the wii at times did avoid the drought but not for most of its life. 3rd parties did good from 2009 to 2010 from what I remeber but nothing ground breaking.

 

Huh, thought they did better, my bads. 3rd party games are still games so they should definitely be counted. Must be why I didn't feel like there was ever really a drought, and the first 18 months for the console were just overflowing with games. Well still, I think it's safe to say Nintendo knows making games for two different systems is not gonna work anymore, hence unified library, which should guarantee third party support from atleast the Japanese.
