[QUOTE="Chary, post: 7077500, member: 315373"] While it's not the end of the world, there are a lot of problems with this. 1. Nintendo's main demographic are children. I know kids having smartphones is all the rage, but that's still locking out a chunk of people from being able to voice chat. 2. That's such an awkward way to do things. I have to hold my phone and my switch in my lap to talk to someone? You can't even use a computer to do that, you have to balance two screens and the controller, that's so clunky. 3. Portability? So voice chatting online over LTE, a data drain, and you have to pull a phone and switch out in public to talk. Oh whoops, I dropped my phone. Oh whoops, I couldn't pay attention to both objects at the same time and left my switch on the bus. It's awkward to the max. 4. The 3DS has voice chat. The DS even had voice chat. We're taking steps backwards in innovation when we shouldn't be. How hard is it to make a working voice chat system on the console!? If it's because the switch needed to be as small as possible, at least rig a mic setup into the dock. I'm not buying a switch, but if I were, this voice chat thing wouldn't impact me in any way. But there's still clear issues with the lack of voice chat being system-based. [/QUOTE]
