Bayonetta 1+2 in February

Dragon Quest Builders in the West February 9

Dragon Quest XI is slated for 2018 on Switch

Kirby, Yoshi and Fire Emblem are all coming this year

No more Heroes: Travis strikes again

Granted, they are not the biggest system sellers, but they will sell quite a few consoles on themselves, anyway

Of those though, Kirby, Yoshi, and Fire Emblem are the only ones with significant selling power, and even then they're not really killer apps. They're nice to have for those who already own a Switch, but they won't push droves of new customers to buy a Switch.

I wouldn't count out Dragon Quest XI or Bayonetta 1+2 that fast. Bayonetta is doing quite well already on amazon and will certainly push the console quite a bit in the west at least, while DQ XI will probably be preferred on Switch than on the 3DS in the west since the latter is a dying platform now.

I actually believe there's a great chance for the Switch being best-selling platform for the first Bayonetta. So basically 10 years after it's release, it found it's platform, too.
