Funimation will be bringing their streaming app, Funimation Now, to the Nintendo Switch, which will allow subscribers to watch anime that's licensed by Funimation on their Switch consoles, in either sub or dub format. This was announced during the 2018 Chicago Comic Expo, where Funimation revealed during their panel that they are currently developing the app for the Switch.

Switch users love anime.

With as poor as the connections are to the Switch? Live streaming seems pointless. I've got a 100mbps connection, and the Switch never goes above 6-10... And that's wired....

Does anyone even watch dub anime that much, should've just been Crunchyroll.

 

[CallmeBerto]

Ohhhh NICE!

Can use it as a tablet and watch some anime from my bed

*claps* FINALLY, streaming apps are on the way! (Nico Nico Douga doesn't count).

Does FuniNow have the subs in addition to the dubs? Last i heard, they only offered shows like DBZ in dubbed + 16:9 stretched which is a big no for me.

Like have we heard anything about Netflix? So weird that it isn't even on the way yet.

I believe they gave a statement around Christmas that they were considering it as an option.

 

[RedoLane]

They better switch their focus to a CrunchyRoll app.

 

[leonmagnus99]

what is the sub fee for funimation?

 

[keven3477]

As a fan of anime dubs this is great, unfortunately for me i still wouldn't be able to use it like the crunchy app because a paid subscription would be required right.

 

[SuperSVGA]

what is the sub fee for funimation?

$5.99 I believe.

 

[AshuraZro]

My subscription ended with Dragon Ball Super but cool all the same.

 

[JustAKirby]

Im just glad we're getting something besides Hulu now, and it being FuniNow is alright with me
