I would assume Nintendo probably looked at that circa 2021 or something and told "well, by the time this game is finished it'll be 2023, and well you might as well just wait for the next system in that case". 

So they probably knew even back then that by about 2023/24 the new system would be close enough. 

Or simply that they have a better grasp than Ubisoft on how to properly push a product like Mario+Rabbids?

It’s the kind of game that capitalize on a softer release schedule and would have benefited from the post launch calendar of the future system.

But it’s Ubisoft and like any AAA publishers, they’re dependent on their returns on investment ASAP and can’t hold on finished product like Nintendo does.

I don't think Nintendo would suggest it if the next system wasn't reasonably near by, like otherwise it's kind of a dick suggestion (lol), "hold on for years and years before making another one". 

They probably saw "oh ok, so you want to release it in 2023 ... well Super Switch is (for example) 2024, why not just wait the 12-16 months" type of thing.
