Rumour: Exclusive Wii U Game Uncovered?

Time for those scepticism hats; this could be our Sadness 2...
A seemingly anonymous 'tipster' has contacted MyNintendoNews with allegedly a scoop on a previously unseen Wii U title.
The game was not mentioned by name. The only details provided were that it was being created by a Swiss studio, who then shut down while Nintendo bought the rights to the IP. The game is now supposedly being developed by another European studio.
Lovely, very-possibly-fake screens were kindly provided.
So what do you think? An exciting turn of events? Or are we just setting ourselves up for more Sadness?
Update: A savvy internet poster has realised that at least one of the screens looks ripped straight from the video for Project Offset: a defunct fantasy title whose engine was supposedly too powerful for consoles a few years ago. Unfortunately, that venture was led by a California studio, which is not based in Switzerland. It pretty much throws massive doubt on the whole thing. It was fun while it lasted...
