Like I already wrote to you about this mather, Retros game, new Pokemon, new Animal Crossing, Next Level Games game, posible Pikmin 4, posible new 2D Mario, some new IP, posible some other Wii U/Wii ports, posible some 3rd party exclusives...all those games are posible for 2018. for Switch. Not to mentione that Switch will have stronger 3rd party support in 2018. than Wii U in any case because Wii U losed almost all 3rd party support in its 1st year, also I think that Switch will have much better 3rd party support in 2017. because more 3rd party devs will be on board, espacily Japanese ones.

Talking about 3DS, look at this list, 3DS games with reviews in 2017. until now, only 6 games.

3DS is started losing Nintendo support and it obvious that Nintendo is focused at Switch, most likely Nintendo will completely stop supporting 3DS next year.

Retro Studios is a myth, just like unicorns, global warming and the female orgasm.

xD

But the transition of handheld IP and allies is already starting.  Shin Megami Tensei V is a Switch exclusive (as of now) and running on an engine incompatible with the 3DS.  Fire Emblem's next main entry is slated for Switch and as of now only Switch.  And Octopath Traveler, spiritual cousin to Bravely, is slated for Switch.  All of those are 2018.  So I wouldn't be surprised to see Pokemon in 2018.  And Nintendo does still have Mario Kart 9 and Smash 5 as possibilities coming from their heavy hitters list.  Also might be time to put more weight behind their less promoted franchises and revive some dormant ones.  Xenoblade has more potential appeal than Nintendo has tapped and if Xenoblade X continues as a parallel franchise even better.  I think Metroid should come back Prime style with more story like 3 but better exploration and just make it a sequel to Fusion.  Seriously, in this day and age an exploration based shooter type action adventure game would be very well.  And I think F-Zero would be a good one to launch if for no other reason than it makes for a great tech demo.
