A recent story on Nintendo Wii Fanboy reveals the truth behind the supposed Nintendo Power cover announcing a Wii version of Kingdom Hearts. It seems some internet prankster borrowed an image created by deviantArt artist mandi-chan and photoshopped a fake Nintendo Power issue.
I guess that explains why I wasn’t able to recreate the page by visiting the Nintendo Power subscription site. I was suspicious of it as well, due to the usage of Sora and Roxas to promote a title which would likely not include Roxas.
Of course this doesn’t mean that Kingdom Hearts will never appear on the Wii. It just means there are no plans for it now. Let’s hope that sometime in the near future Square Enix decides to bring an entry in the series to that console. At least Nintendo fans can count on Kingdom Hearts 358/2 for the Nintendo DS.

can still happen we just have to wait until the issue comes out.
but if it is not, then what is it?
I mean what will be on the cover of the next issue
The image is stolen from someone's personal deviantArt fan art, so it is definitely a fraud.
DS Fanboy suggested that the title could be the new Castlevania DS game in this story: http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/05/17/order-of-ecclesia-site-reveals-artwork-nintendo-powers-secret/
I think that their suggestion is pretty valid.
it said it was going to be a wii game…didn't it?
It is a fake cover. Nintendo Wii Fanboy explains even more reasons that it is fake in it's story here:

There is no Wii Kingdom Hearts game in development. If there was, there would probably been news on a Japanese version first in a magazine like Famitsu.
but i hope the game on the covor is not castlevania. I don't care much for those games
