According to a random Italian blog, Gamestop Italy is telling customers that the WiiU version of the game is no more.
Normally, I wouldn't pay any heed, but going to the WiiU section of their site, the tag description for Watch_Dogs WiiU says Cancellato. (Though it could just be for the Special Edition?)
Nintendo is still promoting the game, and has shown it in recent Directs and even Nintendo France has said it was one of their big games for 2014. So hopefully Ubisoft can clear this up soon.

Mod Edit: CVG reached out to Ubisoft, who responded with "We have nothing to comment at the moment". They've chosen to run it was "Rumour: Wii U version scrapped" which I think may be getting ahead of itself a little bit, but probably worth adding as a bit of secondary evidence to consider.

Mod Edit: The game has re-appeared on GameStop.it with an earlier, February release date. No additional confirmation or changes from retail sources or clarification from Ubisoft.
