A lot of people bought a Vita thinking MonHun would appear on that but it didn't.

No doubt will the Switch eventually be worth it (especially when piracy is a thing) but for now, you will have to wait a couple of years for it to get a worthwhile library.

Nintendo cannot into online. This is an unfortunate fact.

I'm a fan of Nintendo in general, but they're absolutely retarded when it comes to most online shit.

>>384481173
There is also no reason to buy one now since an improved iteration of the console is going to be a thing for sure, unless you REALLY want to play BOTW.

No it's worse. It's a Wii U-level blunder.

Its becoming exceedingly obvious that the Switch is yet another flop and watching the fanboys trying salvage this sinking ship from a company that hopefully just doesn't give a shit instead of being THIS incompetent is literally the most entertaining thing yet.

They'll announce a revision in Spring 2018 due out the same time as Pokemon that has a mic and an updated OS capable of providing proper voice chat/party functionality and Nintendo fanboys will eat that shit up like it's some sort of grand innovation.

Screencap this post.

>>384481631
Too early. It would be close to the end of 2018. Besides it could also take the form of a firmware update

>>384480917
Just don't use it then? Like, don't get me wrong, this is the worst thing I've ever heard of in my life. It sounds like something you'd have to juryrig back in the early 2000's to play Need for Speed online on the PS2. It's honestly shameful that they would even release something like this... But at the same time, I know I'll be playing with Discord groups anyway, so not being able to VC with the 12 year olds on Splatoon won't bother me.

>>384481551
It would be decades before they ever go bankrupt. You would be dead before that happens.

It's not that they want to make things so complicated, at this point. It's that their infrastructure is so convoluted by design that everything else turns out to be a much bigger affair to try to make things even remotely comparable to modern systems.

>>384481927
If the vita can multitask the switch can too. I think it's a software, not a hardware issue.

I'm not going to defend a shit idea, because fuck is it a shit idea, but I'm surprised people even care. I thought pretty much everyone just used Discord for friend chat lobbies? Even with games that have dedicated ones I always just use Discord, wouldn't be any different here

As long you can get into online games via just the game itself then it's honestly whatever

Also who the fuck actually expected this to be good. I think the worst part of this is that online for the thing has been free and then is going to be forced to be paid

At least with cancerous online paywalls Sony did it with PS4 from the start and kept PS3 free

Both can be gotten for free on PC though

How exactly is nintendo so fucking terrible at online? Just copy literally any other service. They all do it at least decently.
The fact they expect yu to pay for online when it's a significant step down from various free services is mind boggling.

In the Switch hardware just too shit to do lobby and voice chat? It still seems like it could easily be built into the game.

They claimed it was for better portability, except having to carry around an extra device, use up your phone battery, and plug it all into a giant arrow the size of another phone, is the furthest removed from convenience I can imagine.

>>384481437

You pay far less compared to garbage like PS+ and Xbox Live.

Nintendo: "Lol, faggots, just use an audio splitter/mixer and use our official discord server to play with friends"

This would actually be a better solution AND cost them nothing. They could still sell the stupid Splatoon cables as well.

>>384482864
Eh anon PS4 kernel can be accessed to. Kernel access means next to nothing unless you can find a way to edit code

>>384482986

Yes, it's cheaper, but it's still significantly worse. It's worse than PS3 by the sounds of it, and that was free.
Hell it sounds worse than fucking Discord and that is free and built into a web browser.

>>384483137

Anyways my point still stands. All the console kernels can be accessed right now

>>384480114

>>384483021
Why not?
Switch games still have load time.

>>384483391

now that i think about it for a minute, i wonder if they've made it so convoluted specifically to keep small children off of voice. nintendo has always billed itself as a family company, and the idea of opening kids up to verbal abuse from teens and adults probably didn't fly with them, and this is what we get.

I want an honest answer Nintendo fans. Why is it Nintendo STILL doesn't understand online gaming? Why can't they look at Xbox Live, or fucking PSN if they're desperate?

>>384484115
You're damn right I won't

>>384483670
That's not saying much considering the install base, and I would imagine a majority of them just use party chat instead of game chat because I've had a ps4 since launch and can count the number of times I've heard someone talking in-game on one hand. And me and everyone I know just uses Discord instead.

Honestly I'm happy this is getting negative press and hope it continues. Bought my Switch day one and love it but it is just clear as day that this mobile app is nothing but a way to shove ads down our throat and push mobile shit. I'm going to deliberately avoid it and tell my friends to do so. Hopefully enough negative press and low download numbers will make them change their idiotic minds about this shit. If the Xbox could do this shit back and like 2004 there's no good reason they can't patch in sensible voice chat. All we need is the software.

>>384484897

>>384482843
Nintendo doesn't want voice chat. If they added one, it was probably mostly due to obligations. Nintendo have always pushed the 'meet up with friends and family irl and play games with them' angle for a long time now. Look back at most of their commercials and marketing. They want their fanbase to go out and do something with other people. Voice chat is the opposite of what they want/expect from their fans.

Incompetence of course plays the main role

But it's mostly an outdated idea that Nintendo of America thinks they're a "Family" company, despite every fucking child in the world would rather play a phone game and their entire audience is made up of nostalgic adults.

They're so deluded that they value their outdated image over providing a good service that they're going to CHARGE FOR.

Sony is in this situation because of the strong yen and competing electronic makers like Samsung pushing them out of the home electronics market. And also their failure to capture a significant share of the mobile phone market. And their retarded ass movie division that pump out flops after flops. They are overextended. But in recent years they're cutting out unprofitable divisions and they're slowly returning to profit.

Can third party devs still support in-game voice chat?

>>384487038

No, that's only for the chat, you can create or join a group of friends in-game

Im just gonna emulate this app on my pc when i want to play splatoon. I bet that would make the voice chat easier too, but like everyones already said, discord exists so its pointless. Its necessary for multiplayer with friends only, so not getting it on my phone just for a basic feature thats already in other switch games, INVITING FRIENDS

Where the fuck does saying PS2 and PS3 were failures as generations come in given those context clues?
Fanboyism and /v/'s ambition to make "DAH EPIK SCREENCAP XD", that's what.

>>384489075
Just like Old 3DS was too weak to run certain games and had to reboot the entire system to enter "HIGH RAM MODE" which made you not allowed to open apps like the web browser or stuff.

So why would you care about voice chat? Especially when the only game that has any sort of use for it doesn't need it at all?

Nintendo Switch's ARM CPU isn't powerful enough to handle our games vision. We would have to downgrade how many enemies visible on screen, reduce draw distance for usable objects, and tone down how much spell effects that are displayed at once.

>Nintendos publishing policy for the Switch is more restrictive than Steam or PS4. The licensing fees are higher if you want to make a physical or digital release, there are certain quality assurance meddling that Nintendo does which delays our games, and they don't give us as much developer support or marketing support as other competitors.

>We would love to make games for the Switch, however we fear that they will not sell as well like on other platforms. Nintendo consumers tend to prefer first party games over third party games, this is especially true if any third party game launches near the same date as a Nintendo title. So we must delay our games to avoid that competition or hope that Nintendo has enough consumers that are interested in third party on their console than PS4 or Xbox One.

>We love the concept of the Nintendo Switch, but unfortunately we have no plans to develop our games on it. Our market research shows that most of our fanbase owns PC and PS4 so we will stick to the platforms that our fans have.

I wanna work at Nintendo so I can climb the corporate ladder and fight for decisions that actually make logical sense.

I'll get back to you guys with my timestamp if this actually ends up happening someday.

Not a RAM issue.
Vita has 512MB system ran and 128MB VRAM.
360 had 512MB RAM total and they got their OS to run on about 32MB and that included cross game chat too.
Switch has 4GB RAM total.

PS3 couldn't pull it off since they didn't bother to work it in until later in its life and there was too much overhead to get it to work right. Vita had it from day 1 since they planned for it, and it had more RAM than PS3. Switch not having it has everything to do with Nintendo not caring. It's a stronger handheld than Vita with better specs in every way so hardware isn't the issue.
