And I mean, the game has Mario on the game.Mario.Not only him, but Peach, Luigi, Yoshi, Bowser and so on.Nintendo properties.How can someone see that and think its a third party game(in another words, that Nintendo had zero involvement or zero rights over it), is head scratching.

It's officially a third party game, so there is no head to scratch. And if you ask yourself how a game with Nintendo characters in it can't be a Nintendo game, I have a good answer:

But if you still wanna think it's a second party game, feel free to do so

Smash is a Nintendo game developed by Nintendo( or that Nintendo outsource some of the development to others), and thus, it is a first party game.

Kingdom Battle is, by definition, a second party game.A third party exclusive(since thats the discussion) would be Octopath Traveler, just to give an example.But if you feel like calling Kingdom Battle a third party game, because thats what it feels like to you, thats your prerogative and thats more than fine.
