This is how Voice chat on the Switch will work

That seems odd considering there is a mic built into my PS4's camera, that I can and have used for voice chat. But besides that, my PS4 shipped with a shitty little earbud microphone thing that plugged into the controller, meaning you actually don't need to buy any headset at all to use voicechat out of the box.

And that's great if only one person is playing but what about 2P/groups going online to play? 

A voice chat solution that's a legacy from PC gaming might be good for Sony/MS's systems but it's not really suited to Switch. Headsets aren't exactly the best idea if your focus is local multiplayer, motion control and portability are they? 

If only there was some sort of widely available, portable device capable of voice chat that solved these problems (headset optional) and didn't cost $300/gen. Imagine if it let you make play appointments or allowed cross console chat so you never lost your friends list when you/they change systems or stop playing. Add in parental controls to reduce the chance of your kids playing camera games with some dirty old man and you'd have a far better online setup than what's currently available,imo.
