It isn't exactly a interview, it was from a Engine Programmer's experience listing, that mentioned a Wii U port of a AAA Unnanounced title, as one of his experiences:

And if we go by definition, a AAA game is:  In the video game industry, a AAA (pronounced "triple A") is a classification term used for gameswith the highest development budgets and levels of promotion. A title considered to be AAA is therefore expected to be a high quality game and to be among the year's bestsellers.

So yeah, not Minecraft or any indie.

No, I'm pretty sure that the 2012 job description was about Deus Ex. The Tantalus guy told recently in the recording that the Deus Ex Wii U deal came into being because an Eidos Montreal guy saw a Mass Effect 3 Wii U video at GDC 2012 on a phone while they were drinking.

Mass Effect 3 for Wii U was announced at E3 2012 and the production of the new game started in January 2014 (and the job description talks about a game that was in development since June 2012 or longer).

EDIT: Yes, I was right: http://au.linkedin.com/in/graemew

So the "AAA" game was Deus Ex, and this new one may not even be AAA?
