Course the Wiiu will have bloody more than 20 games in 2015 you fool.

Moderated,

Toad is literally a five man project. More projects like that wouldn't be out of the question though what would they be made for...? Wouldn't be surprised if Garage picked up Miyamoto's pet projects as well and made them into the sort of mini-game release that Toad is looking to be for a lower price.

There's a few titles missing from your list but they don't really change the length by more than two or three. All in all, given what we know so far I would guess at around 21 being a fairly possible number of games coming out over the year, plus whatever game expanding DLC they plan to offer for the mainstay titles like MK8 and SSB4U.

There's also a few in-house devs, particularly the western ones, that have been quiet on the game front since their last release, and that may show up on the WiiU or 3DS. Retro has been quiet and hiring, Next Level as well, the new EAD branch was for game development but not sure for which console, Camelot hasn't said made anything obvious since Mario Golf: World Tour.

Yup 20+ should happen. With the userbase heading north of 10 million it may not be surprising to see the return of sportss games to the platform next year

Well, from those 11 games:
- 8 i am buying for sure
- 2 i am on the fence: Devil's Third and Kirby (sorry buddy, need to see more of that)
- 1 is not coming 2015: Star fox

So, i don't really know how i am going to keep up with that + 3DS titles + eShop.

25ish maybe, if the VGC game database list is anything to go by. But there are only 85/298 games in total with any sales recorded against them.

Some studios have been fairly quiet recently.

I suspect that some previously handheld-only studios (Camelot, for one) will make the shift to Wii U development for 2015.

They will have more than 20 games, and I see a longshot for even 25-30.

Of course any little 3rd party support they will get would be delayed Watchdog style, but it will be more than 20 nonetheless.

You missed Shin Megami Tensai x Fire Emblem. ;)

Plus there will be other we don't know of yet.

Out of the list I will buy only 4 for sure and there are 2 maybes. Which will leave me with 6 holes in my gaming schedule... maybe I will really reduce my backlog.

At present, my buy list is: (Assuming they come out in 2015;  have my doubts for some of them)

Definitely:

Captain Toad

Yoshi's Woolly World

Splatoon

90s Arcade Racer

FAST Racing Neo

Xenoblade Chronices X

Fatal Frame 5

Zelda

Maybe:

Devil's Third

Starfox
