Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo, we need the apps too!

Tagged games:

I'm sure most of you saw the video of the Nintendo Switch. Loved the concept and they are definitely on the right track to make this a successful console/handheld hybrid. But Nintendo, if you're reading this, please pleases please make this system almost cell-phone like! We need all the apps you can get on a regular cell phone. We're talking access to youtube, Twitch, Netflix, ESPN, etc. I assume that it will be wifi capable but we need to be able to connect to a data network such as AT&T!

Anyone else excited?!?!?! :D

Things like Youtube and Netflix will probably be on there since they were already on the wiiU. I doubt it will have an apps library like either the playstore/app store though since I doubt the devs care enough.

Dammit, there are too much news and threads, I cant keep up.But yeah, apps like netflix, youtube and the like is a no brainer.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I'm super excited. It will definitely have access to YouTube, Twitch and Netflix.

There weren't any but if Nintendo doesn't have that, they goofed it

Didn't you guys see DeNA and other mobile devs on the development sheet? NX's "surprise" will be a form of mobile phone like integration. Maybe not phone service or anything, but apps like Youtube, Netflix, Hulu, etc. are a go from what Ninvidia has said. LOL, I just typed NinVidia. I'm proud.
