What exactly did Miyamoto say in reference to NSMBW? If he said something along the lines of "it would be impossible to implement online multiplayer into this title", then it's possible he meant, "it would be impossible to implement online multiplayer on an acceptable level", and that any possible online mode would've hindered the gameplay to such a degree that he did not allow it to be implemented, where as in the cases of Mario Kart or Super Smash Bros., the decision to add multiplayer rested on the hands on others (Sakurai, in the case of SSBB), and they felt the trade offs were worth it (though in the case of SSBB, I question that decision).
That being said, I would hope Nintendo of all companies could get a 2D platformer running relatively lag free online for a majority of players. But then, Miyamoto does have fairly high standards, so I could see him of all people choosing not to go this route.
