As Nintendo had previously suggested, it looks like the Nintendo Switch will in-fact support voice chat via smartphones and other smart devices. In a blurb about Splatoon 2, Nintendo stated the below: “Splatoon 2 in particular will offer voice chat, a much-requested feature from our overseas fans, using smart-devices”.
Development builds of several titles for the Nintendo Switch, including Splatoon 2 and Project Harmony, have reportedly been leaked.
o matter what the reasoning is behind Splatoon 3’s lack of content and substance in the first half of its paid expansion, Wave 1: Inkopolis is certainly not worth any fan’s money and should have always been viewed as a small bonus to tide fans off from what’s still to come.
A new version 5.5.1 update has just gone live for Splatoon 2.
Is it just me or does this sound incredibly awful?
But is it *only* through mobile devices? The official specs say the headphone port supports mics and headsets. The system also supports Bluetooth 4.1. So there is no reason why in-game voice chat couldn't be done through the Switch itself. Otherwise, what is the point of the mic/headset compatibility? It doesn't make sense.
Even though this method is very convoluted, just watch all the people who defended the lack of voice chat in Splatoon 1 be excited for voice chat at least being present in Spla2on
When will this be explained or demonstrated?
I thought Splatoon didn't need voice chat 🤣
