Thanks toย Samuel V for the news tip!
It works really great. Smooth and snappy. It’s by for my favourite on-the-go YouTube experience out there.
I am a very happy that Youtube has come to the switch and that therefore rumors were bang on.
While it’s great that it’s now on switch.. due to the fact that the wifi on my Switch is still horrendous unless i’m in the same room as my router, I can’t really enjoy it as I want to.
Ya might need a new router then, or perhaps your antenna is messed up. Try making a dish shape behind the antenna with foil, just make sure it’s on the side that’s not facing your switch
Nope, it’s the switch. Several people who bought their switch on release have this issue. I have other devices in the same location and they have great connection, yet the Switch does not.
Nope Mike, it’s the router. I have no problems at all with my connection for my Switch, and there’s a wall between the router and switch yet no problems at all.
Its usually ur Routers settings tht affects the Switch’s performance. Switch isnt as flexible as other systems (for some odd reason) for internet. Plus it can help if u raise ur MTU value on ur Switchs internet settings up another 100 (reason not higher bc u wont get no difference at all).
How can you enjoy it out and about though??? Does it not need net to work?
You would need to be near a Wi-Fi connection I assume.
And if your not??? Lol
You don’t unless you have an internet connection
Next Netflix
And web browser
And Spotify! :)
There is already but it’s kinda an easter egg
Discord please.
Good idea
Plex would be nice.
NEEETTFLIX! (please)
NETFLIX AND SPOTIFY PLEASE
Now i can finally go on YouTube on my console.
Need to try it, does it display in 1080p in docked mode? Heck Iโll just download and try it now ๐
In before the “You don’t need YouTube on your Switch! It’s a GAMING machine! It’s called a smartphone, smartv, computer, blah blah blah! I don’t want it on my Switch so you shouldn’t have it, either!”
Philo and Netflix
