Actually 2D Mario is not obvious one, I dont think we will see new 2D Mario in near future. Far more obvious is 3D Mario.

2D mario is cheaper , faster and more popular than 3D mario. It is also has been bigger time  gap then 3D mario. The only reason I see them not making itis if theyt thought mario maker replaced it . (It will not).

 

2D Mario sells well but isn't a console seller -- which is what Nintendo needs a lot of in the NX's first year.  It's the same thing with something like Tomodachi Life or Cooking Mama back in the 7th gen; they're good selling, impulse buy games that people get after they've bought a console to fill their gaming libraries or kill time with while they wait for an anticipated game to come out.  I doubt many people looked at NSMBU at launch and thought to themselves "I gotta get me a Wii U".
