Easy money is what it all comes down to.
It's stupid to make remasters of games that came out last gen, but it's cheaper to make them since they can reuse most if not all of the game's assets. While remastering an older game is like basically making a game from scratch since none of the game's assets can be used on this day and age.
Remastering makes sense when a game the console originally comes from it's hard to find or too expensive. Remastering a game from a console that it's still being produced, it's plentiful in quantity and can be be bought on the cheap it's stupid.
