Man, of the top of my head, I have about 20 devices in my home that can run Netflix. And three more that I take with me on a regular basis. I'm good.

It will. And then, it won't matter. Gaming forum culture only complains about every little thing. It will go silent when the "problem" is rectified.

On a side note, did you guys know that Netflix now lets you download movies for viewing without an internet connection? It's nice.

Is netflix available in europe ?
If not whats a good alternative to it ?

Netflix is available in europe (I think only a few countries in the world don't have Netflix).

Alternatives I know of here in Germany are Amazon, Maxdome, Sky Online. Watchever was discontinued with the end of last year. Don't know how much of these services are available outside of germany though, except Amazon which also should be pretty much international.

Meh, I'm sure the Switch will have Netflix sooner or later.

It's not a huge deal but I'm starting to wonder what is up with the OS.

Like I said in another thread, I wonder if they may allow an app on the Switch which once you press it lets you access your smartphone OS on your Switch (iOS or Android). Now wouldn't that be interesting.

That's how smart watches work. Could happen. Basically everything your phone does is cast to the Switch.

Hey! They got SONY on my amiibo! Wait a minute. Two great gaming tastes that game great together!

Seems really weird if true, I use netflix on my Wii U quite often and would be a bit bummed if Switch doesnt have it.

When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
