For 2014 - 2015 all games on the list are confirmed or existing (in Japan) except for Okami and RE4. RE4 is coming to other platforms and Okami hopefully could be remastered from the Wii version.
For 2016 to 2018 it is more of a fantasy guess with available Nintendo IPs that has not yet been utilized.
This list started out as an attempt to see how long Wii U could survive without 3rd Party support.
