It will be much quicker than that because the engine and mechanics are being reused so they aren't starting from scratch.

I'm talking about a brand new MK game, of course new stages for 8 take far less than that but given the power that is inside the Switch I'm positive Nintendo will upgrade at some point in its lifetime...

The power difference between the wii u and a docked switch is about 2.5, about the same difference between 720p and 1080p. So for MK9 they might as well use the same engine but with a higher resolution of 1080p. The switch isn't powerful enough to produce graphics a generation above MK8, so they maybe better off refining what they have in MK8.
