I doubt this list is accurate.

In interviews around E3, Miyamoto stated that he wanted to incorporate the two "Project" titles into Star Fox itself. There'll be a main story, with a mission structure like Star Fox or Star Fox 64, and then side stories utilising gameplay mechanics like those on display in the two prototypes. That's why there wasn't enough gameplay to sustain a full game; they're probably all going to be different parts of Star Fox.

I think this list is something NoA have mocked up without consulting Japan, based on what information they have so far. That's probably why it's being distributed across social media. I expect the list will largely be accurate, and 2015 should be a good one for Nintendo published titles on Wii U.

In Europe it's shaping up something like this:

Captain Toad (January)
Yoshi's Woolly World (Spring)
Mario Maker (First half)
Splatoon (First half)
Mario Party 10
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Star Fox
The Legend of Zelda

Add to that Mario vs Donkey Kong, Devil's Third, potentially Fire Emblem vs Shin Megami Tensei and Pokken Tournament, and at least one downloadable content pack for Mario Kart 8, and it's shaping up decently.

It'll be interesting to see if any delays or new announcements for 2015. My guess is some of the titles confirmed so far (most likely Pokken and Fire Emblem vs Shin Megami Tensei) will end up in 2016. My main worry is that some combination of Zelda, Star Fox and Xenoblade Chronicles X slip into 2016. Without such potentially high quality titles like that, and particularly without a heavy blockbuster like Zelda for the end of 2015, next year's Wii U line up could end up being quite thin.

Hopefully not, though!
