I don't think we should be too literal when reading his words.
In my opinion he's just saying that a unseen Mario spin-off or a completely new game won't arrive before new gen.
Remakes are most likely coming, specially when 2015 is his 25th birthday.
Now, seeing as a new Mario is in development, either Wii U will see a replacement sooner than expected - probably with a Mario title at launch - or it's coming instead to a new handheld. Most likely 2016, with the possibility of being ready for launch
