I see Mario releasing on both platforms not being a problem at all for the system if Zelda isn't.

It is problem if they actually want to use max of NX hardware and that new 3D Mario not be held buy Wii U version of game. There is no single reason to develop any new game for Wii U that is not already announced because Wii U is already almost totally dead and now you can try to imagine in what statement Wii U will be at end of next year, most likely will be discounted. 

Also fact is that Nintendo never released game for previous console when new already arrived on market, so why would actually do that with their console with small user base ever when they hadn't done that before when that had much more sense!?

Only reason why they still releasing Zelda on Wii U also is because they announced Zelda for Wii U in January 2013 and basicly they working on Wii U version from that point, they also constantly talked about it, showed several times running on Wii U including two E3s.So after all that there would not be too much sense to cancel Wii U version. 

Also new 3D Mario almost certanly right aways started like NX only project, Miyamoto at end of 2014. said that new 3D Mario most likly will be on next console not Wii U.

This can essentially be said about every cross gen game. Lowering some settings on a Mario game however to get it to run on two different platforms should be WAY easier than say Assassin's Creed or Call Of Duty (the game is made with simple geometric shapes by nature).
