If you mean the first three games I don't think Nintendo owns the rights to them they only own the rights of the games from the fourth one onward much like Sega own the rights to Bayonetta 1 but everything after is owned by Nintendo, it's why the original three games still released on PS3 after Nintendo purchased the IP Tecmo would decide on the older games themselves.

They remade Fatal Frame 2 for the Wii but released it in EU/Japan so I assume they have enough of the rights to release a port. That said, I don't really understand the rights to Fatal Frame given Maiden of the Black Water being released on non-Nintendo consoles.

The remake is a separate new ground up title they would have the rights to that but not the original game, Maiden is being released because Nintendo are allowing it like they did W101 they still own the rights but are open to more niche older titles having multiplatform releases to make money off the ports a new Project Zero would be kept exclusive.
