Not all games should have online. Games that are mostly single player and don't lend themselves well to online play should not force it. Mario and Zelda games don't translate well into online because ithey aren't designed for it. Mario games are just platformers and that works best when you are working alone. Zelda games are about puzzle solving, and even the boss fights rely more on figuring out how to kill the boss rather than just killing them. Combat is very much secondary.

Development resources are not infinite. Tacking on online for the sake of saying it has it will hurt a game more than help it. Perfect the game and if it lends itself well to online then include it. Forcing it will just reduce the quality of the best part of the game.
