FOR A DEVICE that's a big screen with attached gamepads, the Nintendo Switch is not a video game. We've heard rumors that this will not be the case for the future. How soon? How does 8 November sound?
The search for unrelated apps on the Nintendo website includes a listing for a YouTube app. And not the one that already exists for the 3DS or the Wii U, either. "Coming: Nov 08, 2018, Nintendo Switch," the listing reads, which was published on YouTube, for the uninitiated.
Once confirmed, this will be the Nintendo Switch into a … not hugely exclusive club. If it has an internet connection, the chances are it will run YouTube, unless it's an Amazon Echo Show for the most mature reasons imaginable. For that reason, you may wonder what the topic is – after all, the Switch does not have onboard 4G, so it is demonstrably less practical for a smartphone on the go.
For YouTube though, this could be a very quick way of getting into younger hands. Many parents have a smartphone, but the family-friendly Switch is another matter entirely.
It will be interesting to see what there is in parental control then, come 8 November, given YouTube is a mess of terrible content for impressionable young minds. Assuming, that this is not another cruel prank of a company that seems to have completely forgotten about Pikmin.μ
