We’ve been in a Wii U news drought for a good seven to eight months now. Chances are we won’t be receiving new, official details about the console until GDC at the earliest. At least we do have some new bits that may tide you over until then!

The information below was collected from various online resumes:

– Ghost Recon Online will be called Ghost Recon Online Arcade
– LEGO City Stories could be a launch title
– Ubisoft Paris is working on a Wii U game, which is probably a Rabbids project
– Someone at THQ is creating a AAA game for Wii U, PS3, and 360; team isn’t specified; Darksiders II or Metro: Last Light are possible, but aren’t confirmed (could be something else entirely)

The most interesting find is that Ubisoft is developing an unannounced card title for Wii U. The news comes from Damien Bernard, a staffer involved with the Black Eyed Peas and Just Dance games. He has also worked on Driver: San Francisco.

Bernard’s LinkedIn profile lists the mystery project. He did confirm that it’s a “Wii U game which we adapted to the card game/board game format.”

Rhythm Thief & The Emperor’s Treasure isn’t all about music and rhythm gameplay. Producer Shun Nakamura assured Nintendo Power that the title is jam-packed with emotion.

Nakamura told the magazine:

“Let me put it this way: When you hear a song about heartbreak while you’re heartbroken yourself, don’t you connect with it much more deeply? Similarly, by giving players a hero to empathise with, all the moments become more powerful. The only other Rhythm game that I can think of that tried to connect with players on an emotional level was Sega’s Space Channel 5. I don’t think any other rhythm game has ever attempted to engage players’ emotions on as many levels as Rhythm Thief does.”
