Video streaming services will also come to the Nintendo Switch

Netflix

Since last March 2, the new Nintendo console has been reaching more and more users, users who have been waiting for a long time for the natural successor of the Nintendo Wii U. For now and as the figures that the Japanese company has provided seem to indicate, Switch sales figures are breaking all company records. But not all is good news for the users of this console, since more and more users are uploading videos to YouTube showing all the problems your brand new Nintendo Switch is showingFrom scratches on the screen due to the poor quality of the dock, crash problems, problems with the reading of microSD cards ...

But it seems that this new console will expand the possibilities of playing to be able to enjoy the different streaming video services like Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Video. As we can read in the interview that the president of Nintendo America has granted to The Washington Post newspaper, the new Nintendo console will receive tablet functions in a way that will allow us to use it as a browser (one of its current limitations), but it will also allow us to enjoy of different streaming video services.

Apparently the Japanese company is in talks with Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Video, so that users of this platform can also use the Nintendo Switch to enjoy these services. From these data, we can also think that Spotify, the current leader in streaming music, with 50 million paying subscribers, could also make its appearance on the new console of the Japanese firm. In this way, the use of the console will be significantly expanded and we will not only be able to use it to enjoy the games on the platform, as is the case with the PlayStation 4 or Microsoft's Xbox Box One.
