Considering how about half of the Kingdom Hearts series had its debut on Nintendo platforms, and the Wii U will likely be more receptive of the game than the XOne, no. That would make too much sense for Square Enix.

In all seriousness, I doubt any version of Kingdom Hearts 3 can be released this quickly. That said, if their work on the Wii U versions of Mass Effect 3 and Deus Ex: Human Revolution, along with their describing a top-name publisher, it could easily be in the vague "Action-Adventure-RPG" genre. They have the experience for that. Also, Mass Effect 3 was a launch title and Human Revolution was a Director's Cut that came out at the same time for multiple platforms, so its is probably a game coming out later this year. True, the Mass Effect Trilogy was also out around that time, but that seems more like EA being evil at last minute than anything else.

My Guesses:

  • Call of Duty - This series skipped the Wii U last year, but that didn't stop the series on the Wii after Modern Warfare was not released in 2007. If Activision feels a new release on the Wii U just this Q4, when the WIi U will be near its peak and the big multiplayer games from Nintendo have already been released for ages, they would consider it.
  • Metal Gear Sollid 5 - This qualifies as a AAA game, though Konami is barely a big name anymore. MGS5 is supposed to come out this year, and the game is already planned for 7th gen consoles. The WIi U version could just be a port of the PS360 version, but that was what happened with the other Tantalus games for the Wii U.
  • Star Wars Battlefront - EA wouldn't like to do this, but if Disney decides that they want their Big New Game that comes out at the same time as their BigNew Movie, EA could concievably get somebody to port it. Frostbite 3 has not been on the Wii U before, but like with MGS5, Frostbite 3 already runs on the outdated PS360 hardware.
  • DmC - It's getting a "Definitive Edition" like Human Revolution did, is a big name from a big publisher, and Capcom at least supports the Wii U sometimes.
