Probably should give heads up on the app that’s going to be used with smartphones for online lobbies, match making, and voice chat. Still don’t know full details yet but here’s the link on their website for what’s been said so far.
BTW, it has been killing me: does the Switch has a Ethernet port either on the tablet or the home device for the TV connection?
I could understand not trying to ram it on a size compromised tablet, but the home device? That’s preposterous. Even games like Splatoon 2 or Arms must be banking on a quality connection.
In case it is true (and quite sad), are there plans to sell a peripherial for a wired connection?
The Switch does not have an ethernet port and but you can purchase a lan adapter if you want a wired connection.
Speaking of Splatoon 2, updates are rolling out on the Squid Research website
apparently the special weapon called ‘Splashdown’ that has the squidkid doing a super hero landing and sending ink in a blast radius can be performed in mid super jump. Sooo…if you’re on the other side of the map and notice that one of your guys is in trouble you can pretty much pull a ‘SURPRISE MOTHAH FUCKAH!’ on everyone in the surrounding area.
I’ll agree that when you got a stable connection yeah, but with the LAN adapter I noticed way fewer dropped games. Also playing people in Japan felt a bit better.
