They have to have the software to make those claims. Sure Mario Odyssey and the Holiday will increase demand but they'd have to have more than that to predict such sales. I wonder what they're planning.

Yeah, to me this means they’re extremely confident in the games lineup next year if they are ramping it up that much. Hopefully this puts to rest the fear I previously had that 2018 will be slow for the switch, software-wise

Honestly any year after 2017 will look probably looks sparse by comparison.   Zelda, 3D Mario, Xenoblade, and Splatoon in the first year?  That's a pretty tough act to follow.

Even still, 2018 still looks promising.  We are getting Kirby, Yoshi, Wolfenstein, and mainline Fire Emblem for sure, and we're possible getting Pikmin or Animal Crossing, some 3rd party multiplat, a Monster Hunter XX localization, etc.  That's still pretty good imo.
