I just don't understand why Nintendo seem to find it so hard to implement things their competitors have had down pat for so long. Xbox Live has had chat through the system itself since the original Xbox, but Nintendo can't do it on a system launching in 2017? It's like they go out of their way to shoot themselves in the foot.

Of Course that Nintendo can do that in 2017. (you said your self Xbox had that 15 years ago), but Nintendo is taking different approach, it seems they want to take use of smartphones that everyone had and to connect them more with their hardware.

I don't say that's good thing, but again we have here classic Nintendo where they managing things different than competition.

you dont say its a good thing, cause its not. Why take a different approach when its worse?
