My point in my response, which apparently went over your head, is I don't have to have any link to Nintendo to understand that if they wanted to they could've included voicechat with the Switch without the need for another device and another app.  You can throw all the "but why doesn't this company do this" bullshit around you want to try to defend it but the practice itself is not practical or consumer friendly.

In fact, I would call it limiting, which is probably what Nintendo's goal for going this route was in the first place.

That last sentence btw is an assumption and an opinion, so if you ask for my resume because I made the statement I will most likely refuse.

You bought up the Playstation 4 having voice chat you...... "attempt at getting me my first moderation" I was "throwing" it out there because you mentioned what that system can do "it has voice app" if you can't handle the fact that the system YOU bring into a discussion has short comings, then don't bring it up in a conversation, fuck sake.

Just going to leave you to what you think you know about multi billion dollar companies and their devices though, no point discussing something with someone who forgets what they bring into a discussion one post beforehand, just terrible.

I didn't forget what I was bringing to the conversation, the example just didn't matter in the direction you attempted to take it.  You were attempting to divert from voicechat to backward compatibility to support your argument that the app on a phone is either an equivalent move (or better move) than just doing what other tech firms have done for now literally generations of hardware and releasing a voice chat capable piece of hardware without relying on the consumer having another piece of tech to be able to get the full experience.

my uncle works at Nintendo. Does that count?

Yeah playing the Splatfest for a few hours seems like the game could use a slightly expanded emote wheel in game akin to what Overwatch uses... more than Booyah and Follow me, but I'm not sure I would want to jump into Voice chat in games unless we were doing a few groups from here or something... even then we would likely just be using the discord server I guess.

Call 8 people? Lol? That's why things like this are nice it's group chat not phone call limitation.

My Bruv works for Xbox mate, told me that the Xbox one X box was gonna play all the Halso in 8k?!!

Well I'm glad Nintendo didn't limit themselves to that logic or we wouldn't have a switch for fear that the consumer would ruin the console on the go with greasy fingers!

Ok, go with Discord.  Or any of the other choices out there for a third party app designed for people to talk to each other that isn't tethered to a specific environment.  Point is, for Nintendo to link their voice chat to another device through an app is unnecessary when the tech already exists for them to have thrown it in the system itself in the first place.

I think most eat while gaminh. I myself workout a bunch and need to eat a lot so I usually have a bag of organic pistachios and raisens near the computer to nibble on.
