I don't know. I can see being upset by the lack of game releases (AKA droughts) but this gen with Nintendo has offered a LOT. If it has done anything (IMO) it has shown Nintendo is opening their doors to some M rated games I never thought they would go for (Bayo as an exclusive has blown my mind) and am optimistic about the future because of it. There are several ways they could get third parties back, and I think this gen will be the bridge to whatever way they decide to go with it next gen.

Nintendo has M-rated exclusives every generation.
N64-Perfect Dark, Conker, Turok
GC-Resident Evil, Eternal Darkness
Wii-Madworld, Fatal Frame

True, very true though Fatal Frame is a teen rated I believe. But they never personally sought these types of games out and funded them (after N64 era).

Fatal Frame is M, it was published by Nintendo and I believe they may even co-own the series now (might be wrong about that). They also own Eternal Darkness and the Resident Evil exclusivity was part of a Nintendo/Capcom deal called the Capcom 5 so Nintendo has certainly sought and funded these M-rated games post N64-era.

Well Project Zero 2 was rated 16
and Zero IV Mask Of The Lunar Eclipe was rated Cero C (15+) in Japan...

so neither of these titles were M. We also have to remember any Nintendo published Fatal Frames were not released worldwide yet... Except for the Wii U one. *Edit* For the record Zero V is rated Cero D (17+ or M rated). So they are even upping the rating on some of their already established franchises. Another solid point for Nintendo supporting M rated titles.
Eternal Darkness and RE I give you. I can't really point out any real marketing for Eternal Darkness though. Fatal Frame V seems like it is getting a HUGE backing from TK and Nintendo, as did Bayo.
