The Nintendo Switch is getting a $10 calculator app

[Deleted member 546149]

• The Nintendo Switch now has a calculator application published by a developer referred to as Sabec on the Nintendo eShop. Despite calculators being available for free and built-in on modern iPhone models, Samsung phones, and Windows 10 making it unclear why the developer chose to make a calculator app for the gaming machine. It is also to be available in the UK for 8 pounds.
  
• According to the official eShop page "Calculator has an appealing modern and practical design, sure to be popular with all students and engineers."
  
• When they say calculator they refer to the app as it is named simply "Calculator"

To be fair, it looks good and probably works well. Still not worth the price, of course.
