My guess is they feel like they made the Pikmin engine for HD, and if they just move on from it, then the effort/budget spent on it will kind of be a waste because Pikmin 3 didn't exactly sell that great. So double dipping with the same engine and make another game out of it might be their way of recouping some of the initial costs they spent on making the first game.
