I haven't seen anybody suggest that...but it looks like it will be required for making parties and talking to your friends.

"Online lobby and voice chat

Our new dedicated smart device app will connect to Nintendo Switch and let you invite friends to play online, set play appointments, and chat with friends during online matches in compatible games─all from your smart device. 

 

A free, limited version of this app will be available for download in summer 2017."

Your quote doesn't say "required." Have you read the descriptions of the Playstation or XBOX apps? They use similar language, and you could assume the same thing

But it isn't under the description of the app. It's under the description for online lobby and voice that. It's the only thing under that section. There's no "in addition to using voice chat on your Switch, you'll be able to use our new mobile app!"



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
