I seriously doubt it, but I guess we'll know for sure in the next 12-18 months.
"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

JEMC said: Nintendo showed gameplay of Kirby and Yoshi, both 2018 titles, but showed nothing of Pokemon or Metroid. And we're supposed to believe they are 2018 titles too? I'll believe it when I see it. |
its possible that Kirby & Yoshi are early 2018 titles meaning they wont be at next years E3 while Pokemon & Metroid are late 2018 titles so they will have a big E3 showing next year.

Game Freak has already proven time and time again to be very lazy. Dumb, though? Nah. If they can get away with selling 15m copies with each lazy entry, why would they bother putting real effort into one that might not sell much more? Edit: if anything, I believe Pokémon might happen next year, as for Prime 4 I don't buy it for a second. |
They'd need for their first HD title to be quite something. It needs to build on hype too, not just capitalize on a market they're not sure yet to seize with a lazy outing.
I'm starting to wonder...maybe the new Pokemon game is more an HD update to the Sun and Moon engine, making use of those walking animations that were supposedly cut from Sun and Moon.
Maybe this ends up being called 'Pokemon Stars' that ends up being the cumulative game for Gen 7. If all they do is release a new maybe continued story (not the supposedly 're-imagined' story of UM and US) with the same Pokemon that already exist with just a graphical enhancement. I could see 2018 for Pokemon.
Would be amazed though if its a brand new generation with an update in graphics in the same vein of DS (Pearl, Diamond, etc) to 3DS (X, Y, Sun and Moon)
Pokémon is a given (but honestly we could make it without it since we have Fire Emblem, Kirby, Yoshi and likely Animal Crossing), Metroid on the other hand I'm doubtful for... yet they showed just as much if not less than Fire Emblem and nobody seems to think FE could be delayed...

Those almost certainly early 2018...as in pre-E3 2018 titles. Can't show them off at E3 next year if they've already released. |

Kirby and Yoshi might release in early 2018 though. The later two could release in the end of 2018 with titles filling in for summer. |

That Kirby and Yoshi are early/mid 2018 is almost a given. Neither of them are big enough to be a holiday title.
As for Metroid and Pokemon being late 2018 games, that's the best case scenario we have right now. But we have to remember that we're talking about Nintendo, and that those games can get easily delayed.
Don't take PR statements as facts, that's something that everybody should know by now.

I highly doubt either title is coming next year.

Eh.... if the stock issues gets fixed next year, then they better bring the big guns out.
