Obviously, the first reason, which can be applied to all Wii U games, is that the Wii U is selling very poorly and it affects almost all the games on it.

But the main reason, which is specific to this game, is that DK Tropical Freeze isn't the game that people wanted to see coming from Retro Studio. Doing a straight sequel to a 2D platformer was very underwhelming for people who hoped to see something different from Retro Studio. People expected it to become a studio working on bigger and larger projects instead of being confined to 2D platformers, who are liked, but who have been released in great numbers by Nintendo these last years.

People were amazed by DKCR, but the sequel shouldn't have came so quickly.
