Nintendo SwitchAlthough we want to see it more as a portable game console, or a hybrid between desktop and laptop, it is actually a tablet with good hardware capable of running video games quite stably. Despite the fact that we are not facing the best performance in graphic quality and other sections, Nintendo has made its Switch console a huge attraction for millions of gamers.
However, the console has many multimedia capabilities, as we have already seen, for example, in other brands such as Sony or Microsoft, whose game consoles are capable of running Netflix and Movistar + applications. Now The firm warns, Netflix is not available for Nintendo Switch because the Japanese brand does not have the slightest interest in it.
Of course, they have warned that Netflix is actually working on bringing its video-on-demand service to all Nintendo users, but they are not having the necessary support for it, it is logical, because although it is something that interests Netflix is also something that interests the company of the big "N".
In the case of the Switch, Nintendo did not focus on video streaming applications, but on video games: multimedia content is not a priority for them. We have a great relationship with them and are considering supporting Nintendo Switch - Vice President of Associated Devices at Netflix.
Meanwhile there is only resignation and waiting. Nintendo isn't exactly doing well on a software level with the Nintendo Switch, Some even accuse the Japanese company of immobility in the face of the avalanche of large companies that refuse to adapt their latest titles to the small Nintendo console, limiting itself to releasing remasters of quite old video games. We will continue to wait to see Netflix one day on Switch.
