I'm kicking myself for forgetting about Fire Emblem. Not only that, but I should have also predicted Pikmin 4. I would actually be willing to bet money on that one.

Good point about Pokémon. If the team is becomming faster and more effecient, then maybe 2018 can't be ruled out entirely. But especially when I consider how they worded the announcement, my gut is telling me 2019. If I'm wrong, I will be very pleasantly surprised!

So I assume you agree with what I said about Metroid?

As for Retro and Donkey Kong, I didn't know about them delaying a finished game. That does deflate my argument there quite a bit. So yeah, I agree with you. If it's DK, make it 3D, or do a new IP otherwise.

I really don't think that New Super Mario Bros is going to miss the Switch because the one for Wii U did poorly. I don't know if it would necessarily do gangbusters on the Switch, but surely it would do much better. I think a Mario Maker port is almost a guarantee. But if even that does not come in 2018, then even still I am holding on to my prediction of him getting a sports game.

And gosh, I hope Animal Crossing comes next year. And what you are saying makes me a little more hopeful!

So whether I'm right, you're right, or somewhere inbetween, the lineup for bext year should be pretty good. So do you also think that Smash could realistically come bext tear? Because like I said, that would essentially be the biggest star for Switch bext year.
