Yep clearly June with Fortnite, Hollow Knight, the Octo Expansion, Paladins, Minecraft, Mario Tennis Aces, the DK expansion, Wolfenstein II, Crash and Ys VIII provided a strong boost and a great line-up of games in various genres.

July followed suit with great games and August will probably be the less busy month of the rest of the year. September /October are already packed and we are still waiting for Nintendo to unravel their full Q4 line-up. November in particular is still quite empty (it was the busiest month last year).

Its impressive too because the Switch is far more expensive and the 3DS probably had a better release schedule for that period. They had:

Resident Evil Revelations + Kid Icarus Uprising + Fire Emblem Awakening + Mario Tennis for Jan-June 2012

verus

Kirby + Mario Tennis + DKC: TF port + Bayonetta port mainly for Jan-June 2018.

I believe that year was also the peak year for 3DS shipments , so Switch is comfortably staying ahead of the 3DS with no price cut, no huge releases in 1st half 2018, versus the 3DS' peak shipment year.
