Many of the studios Nintendo is famous to work with are second parties, not entirely owned by Nintendo, like Hal, Intelligent Systems and Good Feel Inc.

Don’t forget the elephant in the room, Gamefreak 

Technically I think Nintendo would be closer to GameFreak than any of those other studios. While they don't own any stake in them directly, they do own a controlling share of The Pokémon Company. Meanwhile they also don't own IS or HAL, even if they do own their most popular IP. (Kirby and Fire Emblem)

But at that point it's all a technicality anyway so you're still right, just thought it might interest you to know if you didn't. ?
