For deeper information, from June to December on the Switch we have (without counting 2D or party indie games because many don't find them exciting):
-Blazblue: Cross Tag Battle, new game
-Sushi Striker, exclusive shared with the 3DS
-Octo Expansion, very substantial
-Fortnite, port
-Paladins, port
-Fallout Shelter, port on Switch and PS4
-Wolfenstein 2 the New Colossus, port, but the most impressive one
-Crash, new for anyone who doesn't have a PS4
-YS VIII, port
-Mario+Rabbids expansion, very substantial
-Mario Tennis, exclusive
-Captain Toad, Wii U port shared with the 3DS
-God Wars The Complete Legend, port
-Dark Souls Remastered, delayed on Switch
-Octopath Traveler, exclusive
-Megaman X Collection, not a new game, but not a port either
-Okami HD, port
-FireWatch, port
-SNK Heroines, new game
-Shinning Resonance Refrain, new for the west
-Labyrinth of Refrain, new for the west
-Code of Princess EX, upgraded version of the 3DS game
-Disgaea 1 complete, not a new game, but not a port either
-TWEWY, not a new game, but not a port either
-Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate, exclusive upgraded version of the 3DS game
-Tales of Vesperia DE, not a new game, but not a port either
-Starlink, new game
-Fifa 19, new game, though TOO downgraded on the Switch
-NBA 2K18, new game
-Ark, port
-Arena of Valor. port
-Go Vacation, upgraded version of the Wii game
-Xenoblade 2 expansion, very substantial
-Just Dance 2019, new game
-Team Sonic Racing, new game
-Valkyria Chronicles 4, new game
-Pillars of Eternity 2, port on all consoles
-Super Mario Party, exclusive
-V Rally 4, new game, Switch version delayed
-Yomawari Collection, port of 2 games
-Dragon Ball Fighterz, port
-Pokémon Let's Go, exclusive
-Some Lego games, new
-SNK Collection, exclusive though not really a new game
-Elder Scrolls Legends, port on all consoles
-Gal Metal, new game
-Travis Strikes again, exclusive
-Megaman 11, new game
-Grim Fandango Remastered, port
-Smash Bros Ultimate, exclusive
-Some stuff I probably forgot
And that + some possible announcements (Gta V port, Diablo 3 port, Valkyria 1, Snack World and/or Layton localization, another Wii U port like Xenoblade X or Mario 3D World, the next Pannic buttom port, etc.)
In my opinion, as a console that is a handheld and that I don't expect to see the biggest AAA games on it (especially day one), this is a pretty good lineup; sure there are some games that are missing for no reason like PES, Maddem, NBA LIve and Soul Calibur, but overall, I think this is the best Nintendo third party support I have seen in years.
