Update:

Nikkei previously reported a new game was due out this year, but through a partnership with Nintendo. These games sell pretty well in Japan.
A few reactions:
1) Whoa, Konami announcing a new game that isn't on phones or in a parlour?
2) Whoa, Konami announcing a new Hudson game?
3) Whoa, Konami's first Wii U game is being published in 2016?
Here's the rundown:
1) Description for May 5 Denjin Gacha broadcast features Momotaro Dentetsu for PS4, PS3, PS Vita, Wii U, and 3DS.
2) Tweet from Denjin Gacha account for the broadcast says it features Momotaro Dentetsu 16: Hokkaido Daiidou no Maki, which was released in 2006 for PS2, Xbox 360, and Wii.
3) Previous Denjin Gacha broadcast featured LEGO Marvel Avengers, which was released only for PS4, PS3, PS Vita, Wii U, and 3DS in Japan.
Most likely scenario is they copy-pasted the previous broadcast's description when creating the description for the latest one and forgot to change the platforms.
Apologies for the error, all. It wasn't exactly my fault or anything, but I should've handled it more carefully.
