Runner? That's exclusive? I don't know anything about the series but I assumed it wasn't an exclusive franchise.
Anyways, Definite Purchase:
Fire Emblem Switch
Octopath Traveler
If it comes out:
Metroid Prime 4
Bayonetta 3
Pokemon Switch
Smash 5
Mario Kart 5(definitely not happening this year...)
Shin Megami Tensei V(we basically know this isn't happening this year ...)
Might buy:
Kirby
Yoshi
Honestly a lineup of Octopath Traveler, Fire Emblem, and your choice of two games out of : Bayonetta 3, Smash 5, Pokemon Switch, and Metroid Prime 4 .... that would be EVEN BETTER than Switch's 2017 lineup! In fact, maybe even far better. Seriously, Octopath and Fire Emblem with two of those four games would be a great yearly lineup.
I'm really surprised you didn't put Animal Crossing though ... that's more likely than most of the games on your list.
