To be fair, Skyrim and Xenoblade are two different style games. Those who like one may not be into the other. While I know many who are excited for Xenoblade 2, myself included, I am sure there are still people who would pass simply because of the anime art style. Skyrim could fill that void for them.
Heck there are people who have played the first ten hours of BotW, recognize that the game is gold, but still quit because they do not like the stylized visuals and it takes from the experience for them.
So in the the grand scheme of things, I think the release date will not make that much of a difference. It is still a big 3rd party game released in the first year of the Switch's existence, so there will be plenty of people just trying to flesh out their library as well.
