1.Nintendo owns Astral Chain IP.

2.Nintendo doesn't even care about The Wonderful 101, it will always fail hard regardless of exclusive or multi platforms.

1. Yeah, but thats like saying "Why did Sony, the owners of Insomniac, release Sunset Overdrive exclusively for the Xbox One?" Well they werent the owners at that point. Im not giving Nintendo the credit for Astral Chain. Just like I dont give Sony credit for Street Fighter 5. The next AC, sure.(If there ever will be a next one. I highly doubt it.)

2. Not sure what that has to do with anything, but ok.

They actually already co-owned Astral Chain, though, before buying the IP outright. 

In fact, Nintendo considered Astral Chain a first party game when it was announced:

You know, you can just say that you expect EPD to make new IPs you care about. That's a perfectly reasonable and valid wish. Using a term as general as Nintendo just causes a lot of headaches.
