Imo this is a new Nintendo that we are seeing. Especially with a new person in charge.

Exactly, for now Nintendo is doing right thing for Switch. Monster Hunter could easily be one of launch games, while Pokemon IMO would big 2017. holiday game.

I wish they would just release info before Xmas tbh the wait is killing me

Monster Hunter XX launches in Japan on March 18th, 2017 for 3DS but I'm calling it right now, this game is going to be on Switch and released the same day. It would be stupid to launch such a big 3DS game like 1 week before the Switch because your sales would be cut off potentially in week 2.

I think it's more likely Monster Hunter XX Switch is going to happen. Switch version will have HD graphics and 60 frames per second, which will launch on March 18th in Japan (day and date with the 3DS version). Just like the Wii U launched with that HD Monster Hunter port (HD graphics, 60 fps).

Capcom can't say that now because they are waiting for the Jan. 12th event at Nintendo's request. Having one for the Switch launch is kind of a no-brainer, plus is starts building that Monster Hunter audience on the system right at day 1.

I think there will be a few 3DS/Switch dual releases for a little while until Switch builds up its userbase and takes over.

Nope. Capcom expect to sell 2 millions of MH:XX, that means 3ds only release.

I totally understand you, but we wait so long so far, so only two months more until full blown up reveal, and after that basicly around 2.5 monts more before actual launch. :)
