Nintendo Switch Online can improve

I know a more likely scenario: it will not improve. Switch online is literally doing everything worse than the Wii U online service. Where is Miiverse? Friend messaging? Normal voice chat? N64 games? Hell even Wii had N64 games! Nintendo had 1,5 years to come up with a decent online service. Even if Switch online was free it would still be a laughable service.

But since everybody is going to buy it anyway to play Smash, Nintendo will think they did a good job and keep it as it is now.

Being a paid service practically forces Nintendo to improve it over time, because there's always the risk of people droping subscriptions, which means low player-bases, and less money being made. Yes, it's annoying Nintendo didn't add as much as they should've in time for launch, but that doesn't mean they can't do so afterwards.

Well... Nintendo is wrong, it's a hot cumbersome mess.
Who wants  to be fumbling around with phones while playing a game? Since when did we have 4 hands?

Those who actually used it said it's not actually that bad. Yes, the option to use a more conventional headset would be needed, but everyone has warmed up to the idea so far as its easy to set up, and lets you talk with randoms in most games.
