So that means another mainstream Mario will come? Did Nintendo confirm this?

It can't be more obvious, between Galaxy 1 and 2 there was a NSMB. Did anyone think that was the end of 3D mario on the Wii?

This is a game that doesn't require the level of resources that a game like Galaxy does. No orchestra, meh graphics.

It's a game for fun and sales and will fulfill its purpose. It's not Galaxy, nor its successor in any way.

I don't need a source to tell you that much. The quote from Iwata in question 

“Take The Legend of Zelda franchise, for example, the fans must be looking for the graphic representations that they do not see as cheap at all when the title is released for the Wii U. When it is necessary, we do not hesitate to role out our resources.”

I'm pretty sure a proper 3D Mario adventure adheres to this principle as well.
