Nintendo Switch Online for Positive User Reviews

Pretty good !Since splatoon 3 came out that’s really the only time I use the app, But the only thing I want you to add is the rewards you get for playing table turf so you can see what rewards you get..Version: 2.3.1

BrilliantI am glad Nintendo have thought of even adding an app like this To the App Store I like about the amount of games you could use for it. I aren’t old enough to use this but it’s definitely good and even if it’s not it will be soon.Version: 1.4.1

Get roblox on Nintendo pleaseI love the Nintendo switch console not only is it quick and easy to set up it downloads games and stuff really quickly! But what would make it awesome is if you add roblox to E shop for free or for low price..Version: 1.10.0

Honestly…I only ever use it for Splatoon 3, as of now, and it’s pretty useful. The shop can help me get rare gear you usually don’t get elsewhere, like the Red Battlecrab Shell. Being able to see the catalog is pretty cool, and I don’t have to check my Status section in the menus. Wandercrust is ok, the Stay Crusty cap (and maybe in the future, any other gear) is ok at the very least, but it wouldn’t remove much if it were removed. This is the only time you can see more Salmon Run stats more elaborately, and it warns you better than the ingame menus, such as Wildcard Rotations. As of now, we have only had 2 Splatfests in the full game, Gear vs. Grub vs. Fun, and Grass vs. Fire vs. Water, and it’s nice you can see who won and all the points. It’s really useful that you can see what your friends are doing, especially when I’m trying to host a friend game/private battle/league battle (in the future), and they aren’t joining. Overall, this is WAY better than Splatoon 2’s, which was a more Cluttered mess. I don’t have any other games with it, but I’ll take other reviews’ word for it. It’s ok, but not perfect. Also, before you ask, I don’t really use voice chat, I have my online friends on my contacts, so I’m not sure about the quality..Version: 2.3.1

ACNH LettersPlease give us the ability to write letters in Animal Crossing New Horizons from our phone!! They Switch keyboard is rlly hard to use but being able to type from my phone is so much quicker and easier..Version: 1.6.1

I LOVE IT( ˘ ³˘)♥I love this app so much. i use it for animal crossing new horizens and it is amazing. with it you can chat to your friends via your phone and it shows up on the switch. i personally found it hard typing on a switch doing it letter by letter but this app makes it faster and easier. it also corrects your spelling lol. i recommend this app sooo much. it doesent just do animal crossing but that’s the only game i have used on this app..Version: 1.6.1

I like it but...I like ok but I think every one should be able to play it like if your under 13 you need a parents account and then kids account.Version: 1.6.1

Can only check online statusPlease Nintendo, just add the ability to text your friends, and the voice chat ability is just rubbish, you need the app to use voice chat, personally I think that it should be done from the console itself, like with PS4 and Xbox, what is the point in voice chat through the app, I might as well just call my friends from my phone rather than use this flimsy app.Version: 2.5.2

Just One SuggestionI actually love this idea. The Switch needs internet to chat, but it's portable so can't always have it. What do we all have on us that always has an internet connection? A phone. Why not just use an app that can be used at home or away, solving all connection problems? And bundle with it a companion to make Splatoon 2 a much easier experience? Genius, Nintendo. Genius. But this next part is not so genius. Why do we have to go in game to chat? Why can't we just chat with our friends anytime, or in other games at least like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or ARMS? I hope support comes shortly because if this app is only going to be used for Splatoon 2, I may not drop $20 on the subscription for next year..Version: 1.1.0

Problem with your 12.0.3Hello Nintendo, I recently downloaded your 12.0.3 software on switch and whenever I download or update a game it says, “error try again later when solved.” Please fix this as soon as possible..Version: 1.11.0

UpdateHi Nintendo I suggest you update your app to 15.0 version of your application for the reaction app to be functional.Version: 1.9.0

GreatLike a second discord.Version: 1.4.1

Worth itIt helps me get chunks let’s me see rotations let’s me see my weapon stats and give u reward (wallpapers gear ext) for well just playing the game.Version: 2.4.0

CoolCan you make a table turf app? That would be cool. Like you sign in to your Nintendo account and saves your cards so you can play on iPad, phones and stuff. You can play online with friends or offline with baby jelly or something like that. Please?.Version: 2.8.0

Easy to use for acnhI don’t know about other apps but for animal crossing new horizons it is simply a life saver! There is an island news, and in the newspaper you can check the weekly turnip prices. Instead of having to type on the small keyboard on the switch you can use your own, which is faster and easier. Plus reactions! Also if you log in once everyday you can redeem points for novelties. Great app imo..Version: 2.1.1

Smash WorldSmash World is AWESOME, but nothing's perfect. Here's some changes to consider. - I would like to view all of the newcomers' trailers in-app, not just the most recent one. - What if there's a user posting clean content, but for some reason you don't want to see their posts? That's why I suggest a 'Block' option in the 'Report' menu. - Please add a "Mature" tag (like DeviantArt's) for users who post 18+ photos and video montages so they can be separated from everything else. - There should be a means of listening to the in-game soundtrack from the app..Version: 1.10.0

Can I Ask Nintendo something about their consoleDoesn’t Nintendo have a console that sold over 💯million units worldwide.Version: 1.12.0

TehjpGreat app.Version: 2.8.0

Information rich and great functionalityAmazing services for splatoon 3 and every new feature added is very helpful. Being able to view detailed info on individual jobs (specials used per wave, boss appearances) for salmon run is helpful to understand how to improve. Two suggestions: - The turf war/anarchy/x battle stage and story mode wallpapers are incredible, would love to have wallpapers of salmon run stages - maybe unlocked by reaching Eggsecutive VP 100 at that particular stage. - Ability to select which image to use for album Home Screen widget using the ‘edit widget’ option when long pressing on the widget from the Home Screen.Version: 2.4.0

I just want the railings to be higher then 2 starsL.Version: 1.5.2

Pros and Cons. (AND SUGGESTIONS)While the app is very easy (I use it for animal crossing) I wish there was more. So my first point is that Nintendo Online is a little overrated. I love the low price, it’s very convenient. But for a lot of people, I’ve heard and read, (and I agree) we used to be able to have all these features built in for a much lower price. I do think that this is a little money hungry, but because I use Nintendo Online purely for animal crossing, I am satisfied with the product. After saying that, I wish the Animal Crossing part of the app had more features!! Please, please add more. Some ideas that would be good would be to add your encyclopedia into the app so you can see what bugs and fish your villager have caught from the app. Another thing that is helpful would be a calendar to show you things like villagers’ birthdays and when the fishing tournaments are! This would make it 10x more amazing than it already is. Thank you!! :).Version: 1.6.1

Five star review for goodI think it works very good.Version: 2.4.0

Really UsefullThis app is so useful with the splatnet2 feature, as you can buy things from the shop without using your switch! Highly recommend, but haven’t tried the voice chat feature yet..Version: 1.6.1

Nintendo switch liteI enjoy use this app but I can’t speak for voice chat because I’m full deaf and can’t speaks not mean call deaf and mute. I useful FaceTime with my partner, friends or someone help easy and British sign language very well communicate! 😊 (Excuse me Sorry if you read it not good English. My first language is sign language after learn English. I hope you understand that).Version: 2.8.0

Love itOk to all the negative ratings... please stop it's rude the switch most likely can't handle VC being built into it. I love this app it's a completely new way Nintendo is making VC available like everyone wanted. Yes the app is free the online service is not they are aware all free apps have some sort of payment to it so they get paid for it being used and add new updates/ features. Rating it bad for one reason (VC) is not going to help them. Suggest ideas like what I'd like to see in an update would be more compatible games, have it be able to be widgets compatible with who is online and have a message system if you mute your mic and lastly being able to send and receive friend requests in app. These are just ideas not demands. LOVE YOU NINTENDO KEEP UP THE AMAZING WORK YOU DO FOR YOUR COMPANY❤️❤️❤️.Version: 1.4.1

Wish one thingIf this whole online chat system is ran through an app it could be more. A simple update is all that’s needed. You guys are so close to satisfying me! Most of my friends are hooked on the darn Xbox nowadays 🙄 so my friends I usually make online. I add friends but what can I really do with that? It’s not like it is actually easy to just join them in a simple party and play online matches. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been with Nintendo since I was 5. But the update would be nice. I guess the only thing I can do right now is play random people. Just think though. If friends could easily join a party and strategize a team, would be a game changer. It would be the ultimate challenge. But for now I’m going to keep playing 🤝.Version: 1.4.1

Add Mario Maker 2 to the listNow that Mario Maker 2 is out we need a feature to see what levels are made from friends and other creators Also enjoying using the splatnet for updates.Version: 1.5.1

Please add this!I love this app because it is just so useful. For example, I love how you can buy things on Splatoon 2 without even being near your switch! But one thing this app could really do with is a Pokemon Sword and Shield feature where you could trade Pokemon and battle other players! If you are reading this Nintendo, please add it because I think lots of people would enjoy it..Version: 1.5.2

CoolI find this very helpful for Splatoon 2 and I think I’m the only one who likes this chat system but I would recommend this to anyone who plays Splatoon 2 and would like to see the stages, weapons, your character etc....Version: 1.1.3

Brilliant!It really enhances Animal Crossing and I love that data SplatNet 2 gives you. I don’t think 5-star reviews are ever very productive from the developer’s point of view but I can’t think of anything wrong with this app, except maybe the menu is too full of the logo..Version: 1.9.0

UnderratedI had heard many bad things about this app before actually being able to use it. But when I finally got to try it, I was pleasantly surprised at both how well it worked and all the hate it had received. The voice chat is decent enough and certainly not as bad as other people claim it is. I can hear the people I talk to just fine while using it. I just wish more games allowed you to use it with randoms (in particular Splatoon 2).Version: 1.4.1

Great But There could be improvement.Animal Crossing New Horizons works great on the app along with splatoon 2. But you could try and make The scan image in the NookLink easier and make the voice chat less hard to set up ( mainly for splatoon 2).Version: 1.10.0

I love it!I love using NookLink as it allows me to control ACNH with my phone, like an ACNH remote. Plus, it let me use my designs from ACNL! And the Nook Points! Now I'm more motivated to play..Version: 2.7.0

I like itFirst off, most of these reviews are done by under 13yr olds so they are not reliable. Secondly, I've never tried the voice chatting but I believe discord and other apps are better. However, I do love the Splatoon 2 tracker, where you can easily track your progress, battle records, order clothes, and check the stages. I would recommend to get this app..Version: 1.4.1

To the guy complaining.You’re paying roughly $1.67 a month to play online. Granted it used to be free, but for Nintendo to actually improve their online infrastructure, subscriptions will help. If you can’t afford 5 cents a day, then simply play any number of the Switches incredible single player games. Or any of the games that can be played with your friends locally rather than online. Or pay extremely minuscule amount of money in order to play online. Not an unfair or wrong decision. Paying $20 for being able to have cloud saves and for Nintendo to hopefully improve their online structure, is perfectly sound business decision..Version: 1.4.1

Good appGreat app for voice chat. Works fine runs well, however the games I join have no one in the voice channel a lot of times, so I suggest advertising it more like on Mario kart the text options maybe add let's use voice chat. That would be really helpful thanks..Version: 1.4.1

Very good if you have Splatoon 2The app is good, having a great shop for Splatoon 2 and letting me watch clips of smash Bros on my phone, by the one thing that we need is wireless voice chat. Just let us be able to voice chat using a phone and a Nintendo switch system (and maybe a headset) to chat via the app as then me and my friends (and nearly everyone else) do not need to be using laggy phone calls. This could of been resolved on day 2 of the switch as Nintendo could have implemented a headset option via holding the home button. Tldr: we need wireless voice chat, good app for the games it supports..Version: 1.8.0

Small but important nitpickI know this is so small compared to NSO and the stigma around it, but why is there barely anything for Eggstra Work in SplatNet3? It’s on the same page as Big Run, but we can’t see stats or high scores at all?! Why can we only see how many times we’ve gotten in the top 5%? So many Salmon Run players work so hard to overfish to practice for these events, yet not only do they happen once a season, but Eggstra Work receives very little fanfare at all. It got more attention on Splatoon JP’s Twitter than in the game itself or in the DEDICATED APP. Please give Eggstra Work the same love that Splatfests and Big Run get. Not even 1 million players have even played the event, which is a tiny fraction out of the 15 million who own Splatoon 3. I know not all of this relates to the app, but it would help get the event more known and get more people to play the game. If you are reading this Nintendo, thank you very much for your time..Version: 2.5.2

Will this fix MinecraftI’ve played Minecraft on the switch recently and discovered an error occurs, if you try to join a game, constant white squares appear, also, it shuts the software down when you exit that game. I checked the update feed, it says they added a new skin pack, I don’t see it at all. Please fix it for the UK.Version: 1.1.2

Wish they had a built in party system like Xbox and ps4I been playing Nintendo since I was 4 years old I love their games And System’s for the years I think the switch is amazing system for at home and on the go but I feel if they did a better job with a voice chat system I would enjoy it more also have Bluetooth support the app is ok I do like the Nintendo virtual online service I like to see snes and n64 and GameCube games come to the Nintendo online service but with that being said I been loveing all the games on it for the most part had not had any issues also like useing the pro controller looking forward to Mario maker 2 direct today anyway that’s all I going to say the app works ok but could be better.Version: 1.5.1

Amazing app!There is lots of information that the online switch doesn’t tell you and lets you see further into the next stages! Would 100% recommend!.Version: 1.5.2

People are whiney manchildren, the app is good.Firstly, I would like to say, it does what it says it does; nothing more, nothing less. As somebody who plays splatoon 2 A LOT, I love being able to see what friends are on which team for splatfests, being able to get exclusive gears, and view a lot of data of your profile. Also I would like to say voice chat will technically work even without a mic attachment. Also, people will NOT stop complaining about bad connection for online games, which is more than likely THEIR WiFi, so people SERIOUSLY need to invest in a lan adapter. Compared to other online services, I think $20/Year is a fair price; but mainly because I practically never have connection issues, even though I do not own a lan adapter. It does what it’s meant to..Version: 1.8.0

Nothing WrongReading the 1 star reviews are painful. There is nothing wrong with this app and I have actually found it quite useful when looking at my Splatoon 2 stats. The reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because it would be more useful if you could check your membership status and renew using the app if necessary..Version: 1.14.0

Find my game card 🙂Ok so the features are good, I love it. There’s a idea I have for the app. The Find my gamecard app. Like 2 months ago, I lost my game card for splatoon 2 and it’s still lost. With find my gamecard, I could find it! The fmg app could be good.Version: 1.8.0

More use for games it’s designed forI really do like the spirit team creation features for ultimate and the recording side for splatoon but if this review get in the app developers hands I would recommend having more immersive features added for support for the games like guides or character stats or how in game tip are read through loading screen as well as update history so it’s one place they can quickly access instead of going to a website and waiting for people to sift through it and for spirit team building it would be helpful for it to display descriptions on what the effects do and if they stack or not and I would suggest that for any games that are supported by this app if DLC is made available details can be seen through the app as well as game purchase like how on the console you a wishlist or prepurchase option it’d be convenient if the eshop and its contents are visible through the app just like how Sony and Microsoft do with their apps in relation to their platforms you can buy the games and dlc using a mobile cellular device without being restricted of not have WiFi connections to make purchases for the console whether you have it in your hand or not.Version: 1.5.1

The problem with the 1 starsI understand your guys’ need to vent about voice chat not being imbedded into the console but that’s not a description of this application itself. this app is s u p e r helpful alongside the Nintendo Switch. voice chat is integrated into games by a case by case basis on games however due to the secondary nature of the switch’s friend capabilities i don’t think we should expect a party system to come along any day soon, furthermore since calling your switch friend with your phone is what you’d do anyway to work around this issue this app is fabulous. also switch’s don’t have bluetooth headset comparability for whatever reason so this app allows us to circumvent this. nice job nintendo.Version: 1.4.1

Show stopper for the kidsGreat app I like it a lot. When the kids are behaving badly or it’s their bed time you can set the app to stop all game play, plus allocate them limited time and the console play will stop. Great stuff 😊.Version: 1.1.2

Succeeds at ExpectationsFor what it’s worth, Nintendo has been able to do everything it set out to accomplish. It may not be as robust as PSN or Xbox Live, but they’ve been out for more than a decade at this point, and have had YEARS to refine and patch out bugs. Hopefully they’ll be able to improve in game lag, but at this point the app is perfectly satisfactory..Version: 1.4.1

Great App but it’s missing a few featuresThe Nintendo Online app is a good app, although, it’s missing a lot of features. Like more voice chat compatible apps (example: Fortnite, Super Kirby Clash etc) and checking different stats like on Splatoon 2’s thingy. I honestly think Discord is better because of how easy it is compared to specific games required to chat with friends. Overall it’s good, but it’s missing quite a bit of opportunity..Version: 1.5.2

Works as intended!Works for what I need it for and since I added this review the other day asking for iPhone X support it’s been added which is perfect! The only reason I won’t 5 star this app is because I still find it isn’t as smooth navigating as it could be. Everything loads with a bit of a delay but this is hopefully fixable through optimising..Version: 1.1.2

Great for Splatoon 2/3I honestly like this service, especially for Splatoon, I can get gear I want and others.Version: 2.5.1

Good idea but it should be on SwitchIf I’m going to be honest, Nintendo should never have done this. The features in the app such as voice chat SHOULD be on the switch separately. However as an app for extra features such as splatoon splat net or animal crossing features, it is good. I do like the app but some of the features should be on the switch.Version: 2.3.0

Not bad. Could be better.Now, this app is really good. I don't know if it’s because of compatibility issues, but whatever it is, I haven’t had any issues like crashes with this app like what others are saying. It is a great way to talk to Switch friends while in game, like the sole purpose of the app is. The problem is, it must be in a supported game. You cant call or message them to see if they are available. That’s something that irritates me because, as a Smash Ultimate player, I really like playing online with my friends, especially one in particular. I need to go through a bunch of arenas to figure out where he is, and I normally cant find anyone and give up. If you could add a messaging feature and restrict when you can call someone, I’d be happy to use this more, and you’d probably help not just me but many other users. Thank you for reading this (if you are)..Version: 1.4.1

It isn’t perfect but...The Nintendo Switch Online app is honestly something that should be praised in its efforts instead of shamed for the final production. The app was made to give another point of view on nintendo switch games and make it easier to connect to your Nintendo Switch friends. The app has additional functionality for Splatoon 2, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, and Online Voice Chat. The Splatoon 2 and SSBU portions are very well put together and makes things for the user very beneficial in terms of finding what they need quickly, and providing good additional content for your Switch games. The Online Voice Chat is not the best, but it definitely isn’t the worst. The purpose of the chat system is to talk to friends, teammates, and other in-game allies in NSO supported games. Sure it may be a bit buggy or laggy, but it could be WAY worse. A lot of people will state “we can just use X app instead of this for voice chat” and will poorly rate this app for that exact reason. I say for what they were trying to do for the users of the app, they succeeded..Version: 1.5.2

Great updatesThank you so much for the improved feature updates, loving the new widgets to see map rotations for Splatoon3 - would love to see this on the Apple Watch too 🥰.Version: 2.6.0

Don’t believe the hate.Most reviews aren’t even about the app itself, but the online service fee. People are mad that online play isn’t free anymore, but with the kind of services Nintendo are currently offering at the scope that they’re offering them, I understand why they needed to make the change. At the yearly rate, you’re paying less than $2/month to access online features across all games and apps, which is completely reasonable IMO. Regardless of the drama, the app works fine. Connected to my Nintendo acct and transferred some ACNH designs very smoothly. I haven’t tried the voice chat service, but it seems a little moot if you have a smart phone. Perhaps it’s more for kids, so parents can control who they’re taking to?.Version: 1.8.0

Useful and Fun!While the Voice Chat isn’t as good as using Skype or Discord, I have to say I really like the SplatNet feature - ordering items from out-of-game is super useful, as well as telling you the map rotation and Grizzco. Industries status beforehand! This lets you be sure to hop in-game when your favourite maps and modes are on! I think this app is kinda underrated - it’s actually really useful, and I highly recommend it!.Version: 1.1.3

Good appI got it for splatoon2 and a so good to use I can see all the maps and what time it changes all around very good app.Version: 1.9.0

My ideasI don’t have a Nintendo switch so I need to buy that so can this be made for people who don’t have Nintendo switches and I will still pay for the games..Version: 2.6.0

RecommendI think people hate on it too much just because of voice chat, if you want something a bit better I’d recommend discord but the app itself as actually good, order gear on splatoon, send some designs in animal crossing, watch smash videos, it’s good.Version: 1.6.1
