I dont see any point to continue with this, you dont want to see or you deny some clear and obvous facts, while you keep with some very weak and vague points, fact that you trying to compare Wii U with Switch proves that, because they are totally different especially in terms of games in 1st year and success. So I will not reply you any more on this matter, you can continue thinking that Switch is same like Wii U, that Nintendo will not talk about 2018. games at E3 and that Nintendo actually has problem with Switch games for 2018.

I don't know why you keep insisting it's a 9 month period when it's from March 3rd to 31st December (a 10 month period).
So, let's look at the numbers:
Switch has - so far - in a 10 month period, 5 original 1st party games. How many did Wii U have during the same time frame?
Mario U
NintendoLand
Pikmin 3
Game & Wario
New Super Luigi U (i'll count this as half a game as it used assets from Mario U)

So, 4 games and a half versus 5 games... Switch production completely puts Wii U numbers to shame... how did i not see that?! (/end sarcasm).

If you are talking about quality, then yes, you are right. But no one was talking about quality.

Let me get this straight, Nintendo can talk about 2018 and beyond games from other companies, but not revealing their own games is ok and I can't question why?
Having a clear intention of not coming out strong with their 2018 plans, is also ok? Because they have already proven that they will offer better support than they did for Wii U, right? 4 and a half games vs 5 games in the same time frame proves that, right? Right?

"fact that are you any person here who doubt about 2018. games for Switch proves that"
Not a valid argument.

Délio, sorry to get into this discussion, but I'd like to list some things you might not have thought of yet. Since you're comparing games like New Super Luigi U and Game & Wario to Splatoon 2 and Mario Kart, I assume you're talking strictly about numbers of games released on the first year and not about quality or sales/success, right?

With that out of the way, take something into consideration: Nintendo always reveals games for the current year on E3s and/or Nintendo Directs, so we can definitely expect the numbers of games releasing this year to increase. Now, I particularly don't expect them to announce much more left for 2017, I believe they will in fact reveal some games for 2018, but that doesn't matter, anyway what I'm saying is... there will definitely be at least 1 or 2 new game(s) announced for this year, even if they are smaller games like Game & Wario. For starters, there are many solid rumors about a Mario vs Rabbids being revealed at E3 and releasing either on August or September. So, for this year we have: Zelda, Mario Kart, Arms, Splatoon 2, Mario vs Rabbibs (very likely), Fire Emblem Warriors, Super Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade 2, plus whatever the hell they announce at E3 or other directs. Even if they delay Xenoblade to early 2018, which is likely, we still have 7 exclusive games + probably some other announced this E3 for the 1st year. Not not mention this list includes games that are both better quality wise as well as sales wise. I really think it's an amazing 1st year line up.

On the 2018 matter, like I said, Xenoblade 2 will probably be delayed to 2018 (at least it's what most people think). And then we have Fire Emblem confirmed. At this point, all they have to do is literally to announce 2 games for next year for it to look bright. I mean, we're still 7 months away of it, and if they announce those games, we'll already have 4 exclusives listed for 2018 while still being very far from it. They will, of course, announce new games as months go by and that number will increase.
