I think it's for Wii U. It's only has been 2 years since Pikmin 3 and the game seems to be already done, so it must be the same engine as Pikmin 3, so the same platform.

keep in Mind Iwata said the next platform will absorb Wii U's hardware so it probably isn't that different to develop for it than it was for Wii U

You're right ! It could totally easily be ported to NX, maybe as a launch title. But I don't think a launch title would be ready so soon, nor announced so soon.

 

I hope Pikmin 4 will be better than Pikmin 3 in the same way as Pikmin 2 was better than the first one (better difficulty, larger, better gameplay etc.).
