Okay and? The Switch isn't dead like the Wii U, and we know little about it's known line-up whereas many E3 2015 games we've known about for years. The only possible similarity this E3 could have is on the quality department for the new reveals, and it's safe to say this year will be better in that regard now that they aren't making games just to pad a schedule.

"I'll bet that surprises will be more about unknown 2017 games than 2018 games - at least for Switch."

Good that's exactly where Nintendo wants your expectations to be!

Ask yourself: if Nintendo has a great number of games coming 2018 why not divide focus at E3 between 2017 and 2018 instead of focusing only on 2017? Why?

I'm not asking for them to focus primarly on 2018 or anything like that, i'm just questioning - and fearing - why they decided to focus on 2017 games at the first E3 conference after Switch launch (a bit relevant!).

I think Nintendo's intentions, as any other company's, is to make you really expect them to deliver, not to set your expectations low. That would mean that people actually think good about them and not something like "meh"; that doesn't drive their

 

Makes sense. Obviously they don't have any games ready for 2018. I mean they've been developing games for Switch since around 2015 or so. Do you really think none are ready and are going to be released in 2018? Rumor is that MK8D and SMO have been completed and we're ready at launch, but they chose to hold them back so that they could release a game a month to keep the momentum going.
