Yearly entries for sports games are the standard though. And the problem with the Switch is most of the library right now is just ports of games Mario kart, shovel knight, disgaea 5, Minecraft, Thumper, Binding of Isaac, World of Goo, Lego City undercover, I Am Setsuna, etc. all games we've played months or years ago on other consoles.
I never can wrap my head around why some people brag about how much money a company makes, and I mostly see this from Nintendo fans and sometimes MS fans, Only thing you as a gamer should care about is how much money these companies spend on making new games for us, not how much they save in their bank accounts (which is exactly the brag I've heard from Nintendo fans "OMG Nintendo has 15 billion dollars in the bank"). It's hard to defend a company that has 15 billion in the bank and keeps porting last gen games to their new console instead of investing more money in new titles, and when it does most of them look like cheap titles as if some indie team with no budget made it.
Meanwhile Sony's exec says that only 4/10 games they fund make a profit and they use those profits to fund the other 6 games they know won't make a profit or will lose money, and that they will continue to fund titles to support devs who make the type of games that other big publishers won't touch to please niche fans.

Getting ports of games isn't a bad thing either. It's thanks to those ports that I got to play some of those games for the 1st time. It doesn't mean that everyone has played those games. There have been new games released as well, such as the new Zelda and ARMs, as well as Splatoon 2, FE Warriors, Mario Odyssey, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2. To say Nintendo isn't investing in new games is just simply wrong. We've been shown titles to come next year and beyond, such as a new FE, Yoshi, Kirby, Pokemon, and Metroid, and I figure they only have more planned in the future.
Also, I'm not sure why you keep bringing up points that are just irrelevant to the main topic, nor ones even talked about all that much. They don't address the point that I brought up.
