These are two of my fav franchises and there missing from the Wii U's library 2015-16 you think we will get?

Well, AC is developed by the same team that is doing Splatoons, which may release in spring 2015, and then they will need around 18 months to develop the game so 2016 most likely. The case of Paper Mario is a little different, that game is developed by Intelligent Systems, which has 2 teams, one big working on Project STEAM and one small who developed Pushmo and has experience on the Wii U, but they are the ones that should be working on Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem which may be end of 2015, they could put another team to help them like Vanpool, who worked with them in Sticker Star but they lack experience with the console, so even 2016 is unlikely, 2017? if ever?

Update: Looks like EAD team 2 (the one working on Splatoon and Animal Crossing) also have to internal groups one produced by Hisashi Nogami (working on Splatoon) and one produced by Katsuya Eguchi (Who is releasing Wii Sports Club next month). That second team could start working on AC this year and have it ready for 2015, so there is hope.
