Before this E3 it seemed obvious that they'd announce major new Wii U titles, but that turned out to be a false hope. I am now much more wary of letting optimism set me up for disappointment.

Yes, after E3 it clear that Nintendo is gearing for NX with big titles wihle WiiU/3DS will get smaller projects, ports and spinoffs, but Pikmin 4 for Wii U wouldnt be big project because reason I already mentioned, even would be again "big game".

You're correct that they can save a bunch of time and resources by reusing some assets from Pikmin 3, but the game still won't be a low budget title, as it will still require quite a bit of work. It won't be "big" in the same way as Zelda or Xenoblade, but it'll be a bigger investment than Mario Tennis or Amiibo Fetsival.
