I got potentially better news about Project Cars. Looks like they're still promising to try a Wii U version if the NX isn't announced at E3. But its clear at this point that their previous stance on not making a gimped port for Wii U isn't true anymore.

“Honestly, unless we really cut the looks back I think we’re looking to Nintendo’s next console. 720p yes. I suppose if they don’t announce something at E3 or soon after we will have a go at it.”

So they didn't lie, and the OP is just overreacting?

Glad to see that's been made clear.
