It doesn't make sense though.

It doesn't make sense to rob your new platform on which your future in the industry depends of system selling exclusives.

The building of a strong hardware base for the future s vastly more important than squeezing a few more software sales from a dead system, I have explained this several times already. 

Because the appeal will only reach to those who already have a Wii U and do not have an NX. As I said before, who is going to buy a Wi iU for the next Mario game if the NX is already out? It's what cross gen games are for (for people who haven't upgraded yet). It won't change a single thing about the NX sales potential. 

Its not about people buying a Wii U instead of an NX. It's about Wii U owners having less incentive to upgrade. 3D Mario is a system seller; they need it to sell NX consoles.

Selling a few extra software copies on Wii U = tiny benefit.

Losing a system selling exclusive for the console your future depends on = huge loss.

Huge loss outweighs tiny benefit.
