Tantalus also seems to be porting a Wii U exclusive to XB1/PS4/PC. Unless it's Lego City Undercover, ZombiU or Bayonetta 2, I have no idea what it could be.
EDIT: I see earlier on in the thread has already noticed that. As for Guitar Hero, is it actually confirmed or just the usual rumours by news sites to create easy clickbait articles? (I know a new Rock Band is nothing but rumours at this point)
The original job ad says "Wii U port of unannounced AAA title". And that was in 2012. So it's definitely not FF13, although I think if you suggest it for the ninth time, it might just come into being out of sheer will, Mr Blast. I also think "unannounced AAA" seems to suggest a new game. I seriously doubt many remasters require a budget that would be described as AAA (unless they remake all of the assets, which almost none have done)
If you read the transcript from the interview, he's only saying it's "not mature" in comparison to ME3 and Deus Ex. So that could cover a whole lot and doesn't necessarily mean a casual game.
Here's a prediction that's being driven purely by wishful thinking: Tales of Zestiria
-it started development in 2011 (fits with maybe hiring a studio to port in 2012) and was announced in 2013 (fits with job ad)
-is less mature than ME3 and Deus Ex
-is releasing in Q2 2015 on the PS3 in the west, fits with being released this year.
-is currently only listed as being released for PS3, which has lead many to speculate it'll surely be ported to at least 1 more console after (there was recent evidence that pointed towards a PC port too).
-looks like the biggest Tales game so far (might fit with them saying it's their biggest job so far)
-it's been developed for the PS3 so would port to the Wii U easier than a game based on a higher spec machine like the current gen.
Thoughts?

I mentioned earlier that a Tales game could work. Lol

I can’t say what the title is but it is very exciting and is for an absolute top notch publisher.
Minecraft is my guess (Yes, I know Microsoft acquired it but they said "That is why we plan to continue to make Minecraft available across platforms--including iOS, Android and PlayStation, in addition to Xbox and PC." Maybe Wii U is next.

Well, I'd rather it be FF13 Trilogy, that's for sure, but I'd take Tales too.
Okay, now I really want it to be a JRPG. You people have spoiled me.

I.... I.... Still hope its a JRPG. Minecraft should've hit Wii U ages ago.

I find it hard to believe this would be considered AAA, and why would they call it "unannounced" in 2012 when Minecraft came out in 2011?
^It just limits the pool. If we thought of all the upcoming game possibilities, our heads would explode.
I understand that, I just know for me personally I would rather get a game that hasn't been released on other systems already. Like the next Doom... but doubt that will happen
People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

The biggest reason why I hope Square Enix is behind it because I would love for Square Enix to start supporting Wii U alot more. I would literally cry and forgive Square Enix for all their mistakes if they bring Kingdom Hearts collection to Wii U. There's already a loyal Kingdom Hearts fanbase within Nintendo, too. Playing as Sora, Roxas, Riku, and others on Wii U? YES. LET'S DO THIS.

I, too, hope it's Square Enix. Honestly, I wouldn't mind if it's a port of an old game, but if it's also a new game yet to be released, that'd be great too.
I always said Square should just give A Realm Reborn to Wii U since Microsoft won't play ball with them. I imagine Nintendo would allow for cross platform multiplayer. Highly doubt that's the game, but it'd be cool if it was
