@KBG29: You're already going to carry a smartphone on you no matter what; whether the Switch has 3G/4G functionality has no bearing on that. Therefore, there is no reason you can't just use your smartphone as a mobile router. I (and most people) ain't paying an extra monthly fee for a data plan on a gaming console. Most people who have an extensive amount of time for multiplayer gaming probably aren't doing on the go in an area without access to WiFi anyway.

And like Cap'n Yuri said, if you've ever tried to play Smash (or any P2P game for that matter) with someone with a shitty connection, you'd know how much of a blessing in disguise this really is.
