Like many publishers, Namco must be in a wait and see approach as for as WiiU. They need to know wether Nintendo can win back the core before developing anything like Tales which is a traditional franchise.
The majority of Tales fans are playing on PS3 (and 3DS) right now, they hardly have any urge to develop on another system. Tales of Xillia in Japan alone is bigger than Vesperia or Symphonia 2 worldwide. Tales of Vesperia/Graces sold twice as many copies as their counterparts on 360/Wii in Japan. Graces F already sold more than Symphonia 2 in the west despite Wii having a larger user base. How can a developing and uncertain WiiU user base do them any good?
But what could happen is Nintendo throwing money at Namco to get a timed exclusive that would be released later on PS3/4 with more content.
