So, what's exactly problem!? Those 5 originaly games with combination of 2 Wii U ports make 1st 9 months of Switch are stronger in terms of in-house games than any previous Nintendo console, just Zelda BotW blows away complete full 1st year Wii U's lineup, dont even try to compare that with PS4 or XB1.

You can question whatever you want, but its obvious that they correct majority of past mistakes, especially in terms of games. I several times explained to you why they said "focus on 2017. games" and you have very clear example of last ND. Again, "focus on 2017. games" doesn't mean they will not show 2018. games at E3, they will definatly show some 2018. games. Again, They could not said focus on ARMS and Splatoon for last ND, but they did, and they did focus on those games but in same time they show tons of other games, and now for E3 they saying "focus on 2017. games"and they will focus on them (from obvious and reasons that totaly make sense), but they will also show 2018. games.

I dont see how point that two months after Switch launch and one month before E3 didn't show 2018. games (but they did annuced FireEmblem) has anything with Wii U!? With Wii U situation was totally reverse, because terrible sales they panicked and basically announced almost all games they had in development only two months after launch, some of those games we saw couple of years after that announcement. With Switch it's obvious they have great and effective plan, they don't need to announce all games they have in development they just need to continue good and very positive momentum. Offcourse they have 2018. games and offcourse they will show some of them in one month at E3.

"You can question whatever you want, but its obvious that they correct majority of past mistakes, especially in terms of games"
 And this is where we disagree - and you haven't shown me proof of what you just affirmed.

Abou NDs and E3 presentation, i'm sorry but to me and from what we have seen, Nintendo handles them differently.
And because of that i can't compare one with the other.
Speaking specifically about the presentation tell me why they needed to focus on 2017 games. Don't they have the showfloor and treehouse for that? Can't they also have specific NDs to focus even more?
What's the very good reason they can't let the video be about 2017+2018, instead of 2017 and a little 2018?

Their great plan involved not revealing or even mentioning a 2018 but having Suda on stage talk about a game that is going to come out... eventually.
And the only thing they have done so far was just saying a FE is coming.
Heck, even Atlus did better than that when they showed that teaser and more recently, the image.

I know that you'll not agree with me on this, but after failing their promises with 3DS, Wii U, pratically not showing a single 2018 game so far and not even trying to create interest on Switch's future i honestly don't understand how simply questioning them almost becomes an absurdity.

I didn't!? 7 in-house games (for now) in 1st 9 months is not good enuf!? Blind man could see that Switch 1st 9 months shit all over full Wii Us 1st year, that's clear evidence.

Fact is that Nintendo Digital event or new Nintendo Spotlight is just bigger Nintendo Direct, it's basically ND with bigger announcements. So yes, if you doubt about "focus 2017. games" you have very clear example with last ND how they handeld "focus" and what "focus" means for them.

Like I wrote several times to you, beacuse 2017. games are games that will be out in near future (1-6 months), not in 1-2 years, so they want to have more infos and to promote them more because they will have much more time for 2018. titles later. Yes they can have even specific NDs, but E3 is biggest event, hell they even spend hole last E3 just to promote Zelda BotW that was Switch launch game.

Of Course, why they would need to speak about their 2018. games in January 2017. when they can talk about them at later date!? Last thing they want is to repeat Wii U mistakes were they announced games years in front. Suda and Atlus are not Nintendo. Guess what, FE is anncued at Fire Emblem ND, not in January event.

They did not failed promise with 3DS, 3DS had just slower output of games at start but 3DS received huge number of great games, even something similar could be said even for Wii U even it had shorter life span from obvious reason. Again, you need to realise that Switch is just 2 months on market, and only one month before 1st Switchs E3, and not even in half of 2017. I would understand you if we are at end of 2017. but we are not even in middle of 2017. and E3 yet needs to come. You sound like E3 passed, Nintendo didn't announced not single 2018. game at E3, and like there is no any evidence that Nintendo is working on any 2018, in other words you sound absurd, you do realise that you are only person here ho doubt about Switch 2018. in terms of games.
