Hacking Voice chat?

[The Real Jdbye]

Okay, Nintendo switch online features are now public, and no voice chat, for me personally, it sucks..

My question is, with amosphere cfw, would it be possible to have some kind of voice chat developed by someone to run in background while playing games? Would it be possible to port discord android version to the switch or something like that?

Discord is web based so should be able to port to at least some degree.
Someone should port the voice chat from the Nintendo Switch Online app to Switch, if Nintendo won't do it then someone else should. Since the port does have mic support it's weird that Nintendo didn't make use of it.

PS4 doesn't use Bluetooth either.


And I still fail to see how using the App is worse than using Discord on the phone.

have you seen the setup of that thing, i dont want to carry around a bunch of cables and having to use my smartphone.

i just want to plug the headphones to the switch and thats it.

Yeh me neither, but that is just Nintendo being Nintendo.

Discord on phone... "Plug headphones in.. Load up app."

Nintendo App on phone "Plug headphones in... Load up app."

I am failing to see the difference.

I agree plugging it into the system is idea... but how is "I don't want to use a phone app! I'll use an app on my phone!" any brighter?

Isnt the app only compatible with splatoon only?

It could be possible but you would need a lot of accessories.

THAT I agree needs to happen.

That I'm behind 110 percent.

But I still see people going "I don't want to use the Nintendo app on my phone! I'll use Discord on my phone!" and be questioning it.

I mean if they even gave answers as to "The Nintendo app is slow, sound quality is bad..." things like that.. even -THAT- I could understand or agree on.. but the random.. "It's a phone app! BAD! I'll use an app on my phone!" just has me... confused.

I understand that, i like the idea of the app tho, the splatoon content is good, i used it for a while to buy items and check stats, its pretty handy, but stopped playing splatoon never touched it ever since..... ill just patiently wait for atmosphere, when its released, everything its possible, hope we get a scene like the psp one i loved those days...

No need an app, no need blutooth, no need anything else than a Switch and a heaset.
Do this:

Plug in the headset. BOOM surprise, you have IN CONSOLE voicechat.
The scene just need to make this aviable for internet gameplay too.

This is retarded

Well, now Fortnite is out and it has voice chat via headset using only the console´s audio jack, as i said before.
Need more proof?

lol, I did think of this thread But figured let sleeping dogs lie.

It's so strange. Why are Nintendo forcing users to use the shite mobile app for Voice Chat on their first party games, not even bothering to offer the 3.5mm jack as an option.... yet a third party company can waltz in, with a free to play game, and do it right? It's fucking weird.....

It is not wierd. The hardware was always capable. Hell, even DS had voice chat! It is irrational to think Switch wasn´t capable, really.
Its nintendo being nintendo.
They were pushing the shitty mobile app all the time, they where trying to merge and absorb the mobile market, it is something they are really interested in. See the new pokemon go for instance.
Also it is them trying to dodge the blame of pedos using the voice chat to lure kids. Using a phone app is more risky than a console for a pedo since they are easily tracked.
Whatever the reason, there was never a hardware problem.
