The official Nintendo site has put up a placeholder for YouTube on the Nintendo Switch. The placeholder says that the popular video app is coming to the system on the 8th of November. Nintendo and YouTube haven’t previously confirmed the app for the Nintendo Switch, but it seems like it is coming on Thursday as part of the Nintendo Download update on the Nintendo Switch eShop.
Thanks to darthwesker10 for the news tip!

PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE!!!
erm why WOULDNT A WEB BROWSER BE BETER CONSIDERING NO ONE ON THE PLANET EARTH USES THE APP
I use the app more on my phone, it’s better honestly. This is just the first step into getting browsing on the Switch, I guess.
Oh it is… but I also think the Switch has just as much right to have Youtube as any media platform.
Besides, not EVERYONE uses Internet browsers.
“I don’t use it. Therefore nobody does”
Yey!
Now I can see people’s reaction of World of Light on my Switch
Don’t care! My Switch will remain a pure game console.👍
FUCK YOUTUBE!
Are you drunk again Francis?
Is that a trick question?
Nice now all casuals who buy consoles for videos and surfing can be happy
And people like me that don’t have a smart TV but want to watch videos on a big screen. I hate that I still have to use my Wii U for this.
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
I can now at least watch TheRunawayGuys or Tom Fawkes or Attackingtucans or Masaeanela or ReviewTechUSA or SuperMetalDave64 or Spawn Wave or Dreamcast Guy or StephenPlays/Vlogs on muh Switch
I just want Netflix so I can cry to Castlevania on the go TT^TT
All we need next is Netflix, an actual internet browser, and we’re good.
Or else, I’m sticking with the Wii U (for that purpose alone). I still play Switch games.
Switch are gameconsole not multimedia machina! Switch don´t need youtube!
And how its affect you that YouTube is coming??, better have it than not. Can help get new buyers and more console = more interest on produce games.
Being so stubborn on game console and not multimedia device is ridiculous
Great, but one year too late. I just bought a new Tv with Youtube build in and the tv remote can type into youtube with voice so no need for this app anymore on Switch,
Will not install it but I’m happy those who have older 1080P tv’s can watch YouTube
Also don’t forget the kids who love some YouTube on the go and don’t yet own Phones.
I’ll never understand the people who say: “Nobody need that! We have smartphone, tv, whatever for it!”
Yes, uh, nice for you? I want such things on my switch. Why? Because why not.
I know right, some people just think that everyone has the same opinion as them.
it’s a GAMING CONSOLE hint the word GAMEING if your dumb ass wants to watch boretube use your damn phone or tv or laptop
But he doesn’t want to watch it on those objects. He wants to watch it on his Switch. For someone that is practically part of a Nintendo cult, you sure don’t like the idea of the Nintendo system being the center focal point of people’s houses. I would think cult members would WANT their “religion’s” influence to spread and dominate households everywhere.
“it’s a GAMING CONSOLE hint the word GAMEING if your dumb ass wants to watch boretube use your damn phone or tv or laptop”
Why are you attacking me personally? Did I do something to you? If opportunities are offered, then people should use them as they would like to. So relax a bit.
OPRA WEB BROWSER yes yt app erm no considering no one on earth uses it
opra browser please
Nintendo: Nintendo Switch Sales are not high enough!
president: Let’s put youtube on the switch to increase sales!
No thanks-_-
I don’t need this app as I got a 4K SmarTV earlier this year. Still, this is great for those that can’t afford a SmarTV or don’t really care about having a smartphone because they prefer a bigger screen for games, YouTube, Netflix, etc. (Fuck smartphones!)
Anyway, I hope the YouTube app on Switch is as good as the one on my SmarTV and on Roku boxes, because the Wii U app for YouTube was just horrible. Anyway, if this is true, Netflix will most likely follow soon enough.
(Or was it the Wii app for YouTube that sucked..?)
it was the wii one
What’s wrong with smartphones? I mostly use YouTube there and it’s really convenient.
I’ve got a bit of an addictive personality so a smartphone is NOT the best idea for me. I don’t want to be another one of those zombies with their face glued to their phone.
Oh god, I know what you mean. Unfortunately, I am one of them. It’s far too convenient to pull out my phone every few minutes and get distracted.

that’s cool and all, but no one has asked this yet: will youtube require the switch online service? better yet, will any media app that comes to switch require it?
I Need it!
I can already watch youtube on my home television, I don’t need another console to watch youtube!
I need this, because the audio on my 10 year old laptop is broken, and my wii u video player doesn’t work on internet browser. I would like another video site as well that starts with the letter p and ends with the letter b. *wink wink* ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
An Internet Browser should have been the first thing added to the Switch. My Wii U Internet Browser stopped working months ago (unless I’m in the same room as the console). Actually, the console/Gamepad itself stopped working unless I was in the same room. Just all of the sudden. So I’ve been eagerly awaiting an Internet Browser for the Switch. I’m sick of having to carry my heavy laptop around the house.
They really took long for this. Good thing I don’t have to keep charging the WiiU tablet anymore (only when I want to play Xenoblade X)
I desperately need Netflix, and I’m really unhappy to not have it on the platform. So for every hardware generation I will have to wait 3 years to use it? Meh. (if it will ever come)

fu%^ing why? that crap is on phones,laptops and everything else that’s what ruined the wii u! switch doesnt need boretube
nothing ruined Wii U it’s still making Nintendo money to this day
Typical Nintendo fanatic blaming everyone BUT Nintendo for Nintendo’s own fuck ups that they themselves caused. The Wii U failed because Nintendo failed.
