If it's an option to connect online through a smartphone to game/chat online on the Switch I think it's a great idea but if that's the only way to play online and voice chat then it's the most stupid thing mankind has ever done.

You'll be able to play online without it. You just won't have access to voice chat and online lobbies without it. At least, so far, that's what the little information they provided about their online services makes it all look like.

It really needs to be cleared up asap I mean what does having access to online without the app actually allow. Without lobbies and matchmaking how would one be able to play Splatoon 2 for example. I'm hopeing this is purely an option for those taking the handheld part on the road and everything else works as normal though a router when you rin the house. Nintendo really need to step up and clear up something so important like this.
