Isn't Nintendo just the publisher of this game?

Yeah, Sonic Team develops the game, and Nintendo publish it on their system, just like how Bungie develops Halo and Microsoft publishes it onto their system.
It's up to the Developers to make the decision whether to add more characters or not.
Well for now sonic is only playable so if sega decides they want to add characters they'll release DLC for it.
Nintendo isn't helping develop it, SEGA just partnered with them to sell stuff.

Looks pretty sweet.
I'm noticing how most of this stuff is for the Wii U version, when is it going to be the 3DS versions turn to get the spotlight?
All it got was a trailer so far, so is there something so special about the 3DS version that they're not showing anything off from it?
WTF happened to Sonic's modern jump sound? why does it sound like some random indie game sound effect now?
Why SEGA?
Also, where's Sonic's voice, I only heard him talk when he got shot out of the cannon, they need to put voice effects on top of the jumping sounds.
Nintendo Direct of Japan showed this action-packed cutscene off today:
