Well they eventually decided to use mobile as a new platform for their IPs. Thus, it's not out of the realm of possibility. For now though, they should focus on NX, mobile, new account, and their other planned ventures to spread awareness of their IPs.
As for VR, it's probably too soon at the moment. As others have said, it's too expensive, requires a pretty good amount of equipment, and with some companies already getting into this particular market, it's not worth it. Nintendo wants to earn profits. They've done it for all but probably 2-3 years throughout their time at the game industry. Asking them to go into a new avenue and suffer probably a heavy loss is not logical. Let the tech grow and see how the potential audience reacts to this once the VR devices release. Is the type of audience there for profits to be made? We'll see.
