Wow. If that is as it sounds that's remarkably stingy, even for Nintendo. They've always overvalued their own software, but jeez.

That 3.5mm can connect to all smartphones too you know. That's pretty much what's this is for in the case of the Switch it seems.

Right? I started to read it last night and went "Oh, I guess that's kind of neat. They give away a free NE...What?!?!?"
Bet with Adamblaziken:
I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

I can't believe it costs €300 and it's missing such basic features.
Maybe it's just a terrible communications error? I have a lot of trouble believing they wouldn't at least have the option of using a native chat solution.

I mean...I really want it to just be a communication error, but they state pretty explicitley that it's an app.
You also need to remember that this is Nintendo. The company that released a console in 2012 barely any online functionality, and on their 2017 system hasn't said anything about an achievment system yet.

God forbid you use your phone to talk to talk to your friends!
I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

While I'm playing a game online? Using a service they're charging me for?

Exactly. Some Nintendo fans excuse too much. And they wonder why their consoles haven't been selling so well. And I can't believe they are giving out NES and SNES games, instead of Switch games. I can see one NES or SNES game, and really N64 and GameCube should be in there too, along with one Switch game. But just sticking with NES and SNES? Really? And if it's true that it's just payable for a month, then they can just fuck off.
