You explained why this isn't a problem: Skyward Sword. They're releasing a new Zelda for Wii in the twilight years of the system. It actually makes more sense to release a NSMBW2. Think of it this way: Zelda = Hardcore and Mario = Casual. Who will buy Nintendo's new system first, the hardcore or the casuals? The hardcore, of course; they're the early adopters. Which means the casuals will still be left to buy Mario for the better-known, lesser-priced Wii. If anything, Zelda is getting screwed in this situation.
I think Zelda has the dilemma that it was developed entirely around the wiimote being swung aroung. This development concentration may be antithesis for the Twilight Princess blueprint where Nintendo could easily have done a dual release again for Cafe. Zelda is being screwed over likely. Absolutely. But I don't think Nintendo has a choice with the "cafe" controller having different emphasis.
Now with NSMB. We have a different story. The controller looks like it was designed with this type of game in mind. Its a giant HD Nintendo 3DS controller after all supposedly. If Zelda could have been ported to Cafe's controller it would have! I'm sure. NSMB has no excuse. So if theoretically the game was being developed for Wii, it would have to make the jump to Cafe alongside Pikmin. Heck. Pikmin and NSMB are even by the same section (Group 4).
