No publisher plans to leave gaps in their lineup if they can avoid it. If they could keep putting out big games through 2018, they would have, naturally.

Gamespot ain't niche, and ARMS discussion is effectively dead on Nintendo forums too:

Heck, even right here on VGChartz, where we have a thriving Nintendo community, yours is the first ARMS topic on the Nintendo forum since May:

I'm not saying Nintendo planed to leave 2018 the way it is. What I'm saying is that they weren't really working on anything that could make a 2018 release outside Labo. Their main priority was making 2017 the best it could possibly be. Besides, Nintendo has external partners to fall back on, and Smash Bros. and Pokemon will make up for EPD's comparatively low output, until their next batch of titles are ready. 

Anyway regarding ARMS discussion, okay, so forum discussions are limited. But the game still has a loyal and active player-base, which means it still has a following. It's even getting a comic book next year. Like I said, it wasn't a breakout megahit, but it's still a solid success that warrants a sequel.
