I'm primarily a Nintendo Fanboy but at this point there is literally no excuse for this bullshit

It's awful. No one should defend this.

Iwata vs Kimishima

I like Nintendo but I absolutely refuse to defend this. At first I expecting the app to work just like Discord but now that people have seen how it works, absolutely not.

...

discord

>I'm primarily a Nintendo Fanboy
Prove it, sonybro.

i love nintendo and i never use voicechat but this is nonsense and i feel bad for anyone who was looking forward to chatting online. i'm really hoping that nintendo takes the feedback for this app very very seriously.

>No one should defend this.
wait a minute or two

Okay so switch voice chat sucks, is it malice or just stupidity?

I'm a big Sony fanboy who literally hates nintendo's everything and even I think there is literally nothing wrong with Switch voice chat desu.

>muh voice chat
I sure do love being called a faggot by twelve year old! at least with complication and need of smart phone we know mature people will use it most and not immature brat

>chinese botnet

lol

You know it's bad when even nintenbro ledditors hate it.

OP here.

it's Yoshi from Gametrailers, Escapist and Easyallies forums.

I think they're trying to bring the social aspect of it all to the phones. It's not a case of waiting for someone to jump online to invite them to a game, you just invite them via the app and they'll get it on the phone or something


Literally the only excuse I can think of

It's okay when Nintendo does it.

>I'm primarily a Nintendo Fanboy
so you like shitty platformers?

ITS OK WHEN NINTENDO DOES IT

Discord is literally only for trannies and gayboys

they are so retarded that they dont see an opportunity here to R&D a voice chat app like skype/discord/mumble with little special feature for each games.

with the userbase they got they would take a big pie out of that market but nope, gotta release this pile of shit

Why are people complaining about voice chat they'll never use

Nobody uses PS4 voice chat because It's awful. Nobody is going to use Nintendo shit because why would they. A lot of people did use X360 voice chat because it was easily the best but nobody uses Xbone voice chat because it's bad.
Just ignore all these shitty Console voice chatting like you've been doing for years

Anybody who cares about voice chat is using Teamspeak/Discord/Vent/Mumble due to better quality/better optimazation and low lag times

Passion vs Greed

>that pic
>Switch is from Nintendo
>Headgear is from Hori
>control is from Nike
>Somehow this is Nintendo's fault

>nintendo does bad thing
>fans complain
>NUH UH, YOU'RE NOT REAL NINTENDO FANS BECAUSE YOU DON'T DEFEND THEM BLINDLY
Fuck you console warriors

I always find it strange how people used to always use VoIP in Halo 2&3 or any game on XBL really despite the quality being way worse. Looking back at it things were way better back then for online games to be honest.

did iwata release any major console revision beside theme shit ?

kimishima has been so greedy that i bet we would get a revision announced next year

I think everyone is bitching over nothing. It lets them update chat a lot more, your friends can invite you when you are away from the console so you know to get on the console, it lets them outsource the computing for the chat, and it lets me use my Bluetooth headphones or any Bluetooth earpiece so I don't have to worry about buying something just for the switch. Say what you will, but if you wanted chat on the switch itself you are wrong, but if you are just saying the app could work a little different then refer to my first point in which they leave themselves open to do a lot of updates doing it this way.

Don't worry they'll fix that issue on the Nintendo switch mini/XL.

you are thinking of the ideal version that everyone dream of

the actual app released yesterday and is nothing like it

This fuck Discord. They banned Japanese artists who were drawing lewd uncensored lolis.

Peopel care because it's more evidence that Nintendo are absolutely fucking useless at doing anything outside of their comfort zone. I don't have a Switch but a strong Nintendo is good for everyone. But if they can't get the basics right, then they should just fuck off making consoles and go software only

in this specific case, it actually is okay when nintendo does it

can't go into details right now as I have an errand to run, but rest assured its fine

how hard is it to make an apps that allow voice chat easily??
>create an app
>there will be a code in-game for the chatroom
>simply type in the codes, and it will connect u into the chatroom
>done, simple as that, you can now chat with others in the same game.
how hard is that? seriously.

>nobody uses chat on consoles! Everyone uses apps or the like to do it!
>Nintendo makes an app.
>Still gets shit on because people want it in the console.

>voice chat
Underage or normalfag. Either way please go.

It's ridiculous and I have no idea what they're thinking.
That said. Just ignore it. Get a PC and use Skype or Discord like always. It's what I do for everything anyway.

Or /vg/ scum.

>Nintendo should go third party
I thought this meme would die years ago

LOL

It makes sense from Nintendo's point of view.
It's cheaper to manufacture Switches without the built-in features, it makes the console harder to crack (not that it's doing too much good) and they get to make extra money with all the peripherals.

It's basically DRM levels of fucking over legitimate customers, but you get to make money in the process.

I am gonna defend it for the sole reason that its so fucking retarded its needs to be documented and studied in future generations

Why is there a giant black upvote arrow with wires sticking out of it?

Nintendo dying is the oldest video game meme there is.
It's nearly 40 years old.

I don't think they will, not in the near future anyway, it's just what I'd personally like. No one buys Nintendo consoles for third party, the online is shit, the hardware is always behind, etc etc.

It's what I would like, even if it's not realistic.

...

They shouldn't...
But they will.

They're stubborn, but they did change the model for the complementary monthly games due to backlash so we'll see.

Console voice chat has been irrelevant since forever because nobody does it right. Voice chat on console is a instant-mute if you have a brain because they use some dumb codecs. At this point they are all better off partnering up with someone like TS, Mumble and etc. Why waste time on voice chat if nobody is going to do it right. Nintendo is dumb for even trying and then somehow doing it the worst way possible. Is it even possible to 20 years behind on online infrastructure like Nintendo.

People want to be able to talk in game which will never happen because Nintendo are giant pussies

What about tranny fuckers?

this guy is literally the biggest Nintendo dicksucker ever, Like nothing that nintendo does is wrong.

Do you think Nintendo will eventually release a version of the Switch with this shit built in or are the are they a lost cause at this point?

Uh oh! Watch out mr. Sup Forums detective. Remember that no nintendo fanboy should ever disrespect his own favored company for it's wrongdoings. Keep an eye for that.

He mentioned gayboys

>It lets them update chat a lot more
There are software updates on consoles now if you didn't realize
>your friends can invite you when you are away from the console so you know to get on the console
This can be done with an optional app still, nothing to do with voice chat
>it lets them outsource the computing for the chat
It doesn't take that much computing
>and it lets me use my Bluetooth headphones or any Bluetooth earpiece so I don't have to worry about buying something just for the switch
Welcome to the PS3, released 11 years ago

if you honestly have this opinion you're too young to be using Sup Forums
people have spouted this shit since the 90s

you can claim "not realistic" all you want, that doesn't make it real, but what is irrefutably real is that people have been saying nintnedo would drop out of making hardware for ages and its never happened
its not going to happen

>Nobody uses PS4 voice chat because It's awful.
really? because literally everyone I knew used 360 voice chat. I don't have a current gen console, but that's really depressing if a simple feature like voice chat is no longer used. says a lot about the industry if we're taking steps back, instead of improving on what works and making it better.

As opposed to movies that let me play like 30 mins out of the entiry 4 hour game? Yes.

Unless some major fuck up happens with the app matchmaking/voice chat, I don't see that happening.

In a year's time everyone will have either forgotten about this or learned to live with it.

Sounds reasonable to me.
Being Serebii, I'm sure he gets people messaging/tweeting hyperbolic messages to him all the time.
And some people with internet access are retards with massively strong opinions

>shitty underpowered handheld unable to meet decade old standards in both performance and usability
Saved you a watch.

not with all the fanboys they garner here and abroad. they'll keep peddling their steve jobbers hardware until the end of fucking time

I've not used a PS4, but I remember my PS3 and not many people used voice chat. But on Xbox 360 they did. Shipping with a headset was a good idea.
PS3 reminds me more of PC. I have a high quality microphone hooked up at all times, but I don't really chat that much because no one else is. They have mics I'm sure, but there was something about getting that headset with your system that just made people want to actually use it with the 360.

This is actually the case. The only reason to not use anything third party for voice chat is if you want low quality gargle riddled with breaks and crackles.
I'm surprised you don't know this. Even on PC games people typically open a separate program.

Its not really taking a step back though. In this day and age theres no real reason for devs to waste time implementing it when another company can just focus on developing the utility.

>Nintendo throws out a stupid method for using voice chat
>people obviously point out it's stupid
>someone always cries out that voice chat was never good and nobody ever uses it
>thus making Nintendo's thing look even worse just for existing
every time

Yep. 360 was the pinnacle for console voice chat. Basically nobody uses PS4 voice chat and apparently XB1 shares the same codec. So there is lots of stuttering, static and cutouts.
With mega-casual accessible shit like Discord now, there's no reason to use console chat

fuck off joe

BING BING

>underpowered handheld
simply ebin

probably the worst posters are the one saying that they would rather use discord or some shit. they need to fuck off because no one is gonna want to set a bunch of shit up just to chat with someone you're already in the game with.

I really don't think Nintendo is comparable to Apple.
All Nintendo does with their hardware is try new gimmicks that other companies aren't. Every new console Nintendo puts out does something vastly different then their previous while Apple is infamous for releasing things that are mostly the same. I would sooner compare Sony's game industry to Apple with their PS pro bullshit.

>In this day and age theres no real reason for devs to waste time implementing it when another company can just focus on developing the utility.
if consoles are just mini PCs, why can't they get voice chat right? how can a company like nintendo advertise splatoon 2 as an e-sport, but fail to provide one of the key factors to playing online games competitively?

>Click a link
>Get instantly moved to a voice channel
>Talk

Wow so confusing and absolutely difficult to setup

ingame sound ?

What do you mean? You still get team communication by third party products and Nintendo's competitors haven't been doing what you're suggesting Nintendo does as their voice chat is awful and oter esports scenes use third party communications as well.
Are you telling me its not okay when Nintendo does it?

is it bad that this still makes me chuckle?

>I sure do love being called a faggot by twelve year old!
Imagine being so sensitive that getting bullied by 12 year olds actually triggers you.

have you never played an online game in the past 5 years

This.
Or Team Speak.
Or Skype.
Or Mumble.
etc. Just like with the first Splatoon

Nobody who is playing a game 'competitively' is using console voice chat.

>the feature they are praising is that you can invite people who you last played with
>a feature that is present in XBL and PSN since last gen
This is some grim shit

nobody who's playing a game competitively plays it on playstation, he wouldn't know

What about it? Are you playing on 100/100/100 everything with your TV/Monitor turned up to max too? Are you just incapable of taking 10 seconds to adjust the ingame volume? I seriously don't understand what you are trying to say.

I think him being upset is more of a disdain for the human race due to the implied decline in parental ability.

why couldn't nintendo do pic related?
this works for both docked mode and portable

It's so bad. Forcing voice chat through the app wasn't enough, now the phone screen has to be left on and focused on the app, otherwise you're kicked out of the chat.

Why would they add a port on the back of all joycons upping their production cost and size when very little utility would be made out of it?

...

>phone screen has to be left on and focused on the app
i'm ignorant to how smartphone screens work, but do they have screen burn-in like televisions?

That was mainly a problem with CRTs and older plasma televisions, but it's not a realistic problem in this day and age.

pretty sure tokido is on PS4

What

I was saying that I don't think Nintendo will drop out of making hardware, but for me personally I would much prefer it that they would. Last Nintendo console I had was the Wii which was a major disappointment and I still see a lot of the same issues I saw with that console now.

I'm sure they'll keep trucking along for decades on the back of Mario and Pokemon in any case

here is your setup senpai

>To make the cumbersome experience worse, hosting voice through the smartphone app separates the game's audio from the chat audio -- which potentially creates a situation where a player is wearing multiple pairs of headphones or choosing between hearing the game and hearing their teammates in voice chat. Nintendo and manufacturers like HORI are creating headset accessories that merge the two audio sources together, but that adds yet a third device into the Nintendo Switch-voice juggling act.

>there is literally no excuse for this bullshit
Yes, it does. It simple, and they don't hide it at all : the reason is to have a good, family friendly, experience while playing online. Even in popular games like LOL or Overwatch etc..., "gamers" trashtalk non-stop, even in fucking Sm4sh, they use their name to insult people. Do you think parents want to see their children cry because some retards bully them while playing a Nintendo game ?
Don't get me wrong, I don't say it isn't bullshit, but there is clearly a reason. They should at least had permited voice chat with people in your friendlist.

It went all to shit with the introduction of the Wii.

No, you fuck off.
I've had it up to here with tards coming at me like I work for nintendo voicing their stupid opinions

As they should. loli is cp

All of the DS and 3DS revisions.

I still use vent with my buddies. I don't think I'll ever get used to not hearing those sounds in a VoIP service.

it isn't
