Nico Wav, the guy who broke the Devil's Third and Pokemon OR/AS leaks last year says:

-3 unnanounced 3rd party projects for WiiU similar to Devil's Third, in the sense that Nintendo pulled these projects from the brink of being cancelled and made them WiiU exclusive

-Major remaster on WiiU to be released this year. Very little info given to speculate on this. IMO: Rogue Squadron collection would be the safest/best choice

Other that there's also this:

-Tantalus has a 'AAA' title in the works for WiiU. Their 'biggest' project ever. They did good ports of Mass Effect and Deus Ex to WiiU. They've been working on this title presumably since late 2013 (when they first started job postings for something like this). They would be good folks to do said Rogue Squadron remaster based on their expertise/track record with other commercial IPs. Could be something entirely different though.

These are just my responses to the rumors. 

- Unannounced games: Beyond Good + Evil 2 sounds like it fits this. Maybe Agent? Silent Hills? New IP that never got revealed? The Last Guardian????

 

Aye?

Agent is either secretly still in development for PS3/4 or it has been secretly killed and buried for quite a while, so it's well past the brink of cancellation, or its not at the brink yet. Silent Hills is not being cancelled for the sorts of reasons that Nintendo can swoop in and buy it up to become an exclusive. Konami is purging itself of any lasting odour of Kojima, therefore any Silent Hill game that comes along won't be Silent Hills as it was been teased last year. Nitnendo might be doing an exclusive deal with Konami on a Silent Hill game, but I strongly doubt it will be Silent Hills. The Last Guardian, is obviously a joke since its Sony first party and the chances of Nintendo actually buying an IP off Sony that is currently stuck in development hell is negligible. The possibility of Nintendo commissioning a Fumito Ueda lead project is a possibility, but that would not fit in the IP rescuing category. 

I liked BG&E, but I was not blown away by it. I can understand why there was enthusiasm for making a sequel last gen but that it ultimately went no where. But it is the sort of IP that Nintendo could pick up and try to maske something of it.
