The game was near completion back in October so NX is the only reason it'd take that long.

I can think of three different reasons why it would take that long that don't involve it being moved to NX:

1. Gap in the schedule, so they're holding it to fill that gap.

2. It wasn't needed at the time it was finished, so they went back and added more content.

3. It didn't have amiibo functionality, and they decided it should.

Actually, four, if you assume that NXH is releasing in 2016 and NXC is releasing in 2017:

4. NXH would be powerful enough to run Pikmin 4, so they delayed the Wii U version to release an NXH version simultaneously.

 

Fine, the only reason with actual weight behind it, being other game announcements, or rather the lack of showing Nintendo's attitude towards Wii U, and the Zelda U situation. Your reasons are pure guesswork, and well the last one just can't be. Pikmin on a tiny screen? Do not want!
