Last updated
Ever wondered if you can share a laugh or strategize with friends on your Nintendo Switch? Let’s dive into this burning question many gamers have.
So, can you actually chat with fellow gamers directly on your Nintendo Switch? It’s a hot topic for anyone wanting to team up or compete with friends online.
Quick Answer: It’s Complicated
Yes and no. Nintendo Switch doesn’t support in-game chat directly through the console. However, there’s a workaround involving the Nintendo Switch Online app.
