Nintendo is doubling down on the idea of routing the Nintendo Switch’s voice chat through a smartphone app.
According to Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aimé, though, this system of voice chat will actually be better than the standard method of making voice chat an inherent feature of the console.
Nintendo plans to launch its voice chat app this summer.
The first Splatoon-themed headset for the Nintendo Switch’s voice chat was revealed a few weeks ago to near-universal disdain for its clunky setup and overuse of wires.
