[Tom Nook Sawyer]

From Emily's Twitter

So me, @Doctor_Cupcakes, and @Imranzomg (ShockingAlberto on NeoGaf) will share a rumor next week regarding an unannounced Wii U game.

We have about 4-5 sources that this unannounced Wii U game exists. And a lot of evidence behind it. @Doctor_Cupcakes @imranzomg

For the record, this Wii U game is published by Nintendo. It's not a third party game. @Doctor_Cupcakes @imranzomg

There's no secrecy. We just need the weekend to look over all the information. We'll spill the beans Monday.

Not a lost game. Not a game stuck in limbo. Not an eshop only game. Not an indie game. Not third party.

It's a franchise that has fans.

UPDATE:

Paper Mario

[Toki767]

It's probably not Metroid.

I'm going to guess Animal Crossing.

 

[Neiteio]

This better be the Lucina boots-polishing simulator we've been waiting for

 

[Madao]

not a Metroid or F-Zero game then.

 

[RK128]

*Cough*Pikmin 4*Cough*

 

[eznark]

I assume they are working on a number of unannounced WiiU games.

 

[NDP_Mulcair]

It's probably a cross-gen NX game. I bet Nintendo will do cross-gen stuff into 2017 before finally cutting the Wii U off entirely.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

Neat. And oh yea Pikmin is supposed to be like done, right?

 

[sfried]

METROID

 

[Neiteio]

*Cough*Pikmin 4*Cough*

That's already been publicly confirmed, so probably not that

 

[Lights and Waves]

The Wii U will be dead in a few months. I doubt it's going to be anything earth shattering.

 

[Malus]

I'd rather hear it as a "Just one more thing" Nintendo Direct surprise but oh well.

 

[OfficerRaichu15]

It's pikmin 4 isn't it.

 

[Htown]

Is it about time for another Donkey Kong?

 

[BlindJesus]

I know people have mixed feelings about Donkey Kong 64, but I'd love another 3D DK platformer..>_>

 

[Gleethor]

If everything she's said about it is true, I'd rather them not ruin the surprise to be honest.

 

[wiibomb]

*Cough*Pikmin 4*Cough*

was going to post this..

last time miyamoto told it was on the final stages of development

 

[LiK]

Man, they follow me and I don't get any scoops.

 

[Hot Coldman]

did they just announce an unannouncement

 

[Dee Dee]

I assume they are working on a number of unannounced WiiU games.

Yes.

Is it a Picross game though?
(Expectations are at an all time low, let's do this...)

 

[dubq]

FZERO PLZ

 

[ASIS]

I don't get it, why wait until Monday? If they already have the info why not say what they've found.

Unless there is a direct on Monday, just sayin.

 

[AlfaTrion]

Please be a legit Metroid game

 

[Jeremy]

Mario Paint U!

 

[RK128]

That's already been publicly confirmed, so probably not that

Mmm........

Then it might be that rumored Diddy Kong Racing game? I mean its likely a NX title but still, who knows.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Dragon Kong Returns 3

 

[Vena]

*Cough*Pikmin 4*Cough*

Already known. This is an unknown game.

Mmm........

Then it might be that rumored Diddy Kong Racing game? I mean its likely a NX title but still, who knows.

Stuck in IP-rights limbo.

 

[MrV4ltor]

*Cough*Pikmin 4*Cough*

That's already been confirmed tho.

 

[RadioJoNES64]

Mario's Amiibo Park

 

[Anth0ny]

Maybe Pikmin?

Maybe Nintendo Direct next week?

 

[HardRojo]

Meh, won't get excited at the possibility of it being Metroid, because I know it won't.

 

[Chao]

It will probably be some C tier franchise, something like Advance Wars WiiU.

 

[Kyzon]

Federation Force HD! I'm so ready

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

 

[Nights Owl]

Is it about time for another Donkey Kong?

Would be 100% okay with this. Tropical Freeze is like... 4 years old soon, isn't it? Or 3?
Edit: It's actually two, but I'd still be down.

I know people have mixed feelings about Donkey Kong 64, but I'd love another 3D DK platformer..>_>

I love DK64. I'd be down with this, though I doubt it will ever happen again.

 

[El Sabroso]

please be F Zero, please be F Zero

It's pikmin 4 isn't it.

unannounced, Pikmin 4 was announced in development already

 

[ManeKast]

Wave Race come awwwnnnn down!

 

[KingBroly]

So...whatever happened to that rumored Paper Mario Wii U game?


I'd rather have Amiibo Land, a re-working of Nintendo Land, but with AMIIBO

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

Maybe Pikmin 4 isn't an NX title then, and Nintendo isn't as finished with Wii U as we've been lead to believe.

 

[RK128]

Stuck in IP-rights limbo.

Nintendo owns the DK series though and even if they don't have the rights to a few Rare characters, they could replace it with Nintendo guests and Kong characters.

 

[pinkurocket]

Kid Icarus Uprising HD.

 

[Hero of Legend]

I assume they are working on a number of unannounced WiiU games.

This. It's nothing Earth-shattering honestly. Now WHAT it is, is another story.

 

[rardk64]

Emily is a good source, as is Liam. I'm very curious to see what this is.

On the subject of what it could be, I'm not sure. Maybe Animal Crossing? I do think that their Animal Crossing assets used for amiibo Festival could be intended for more use as well, which would be fantastic.

 

[sphinx]

Other than metroid there's nothing earth shattering Nintendo can announce, as far as I am concerned.

 

[RomanceDawn]

Not that I don't believe this but can someone remind me if Rogers was the woman who "leaked" Smash Bros Paradise with Snake and Mega Man Volnutt?

 

[sir_bumble_bee]

Welp, my Monday just got significantly more interesting

 

[AdanVC]

Could be Pikmin 4 but they said "unannounced" and Pikmin 4 was sort of announced and confirmed officially by Miyamoto so...

Metroid Kart Federation Force here we go.

 

[Tansut]

StarTropics 3, baby!!

Spoiler

:'(

 

[herod]

We need to maximise our hits so we're going to let the word of mouth build until Monday.
