To the OP ....

No they probably won't ever again.

Nintendo was dumb enough to allow Sony and MS to gain a virtual monopoly on this audience, and they don't have the marketing acumen to now get said audience back as Sony/MS are too formidable for Nintendo to compete against in this area.

People associate all those IP with non-Nintendo platforms. Even with non-Western IP, I remember I have a buddy who liked Fatal Frame on the XBox, when I told him there was a new one coming out on the Wii he reacted like he was surprised such a game would be allowed on Wii. 

Nintendo's allowed their brand to become stigmatized and associated as a kids-only or certainly a kids-first brand which doesn't work for most 3rd party games (not unless you're LEGO or Just Dance).
