    We got to 15k signatures!... And change.org accordingly updated the goal:

    Screen Shot 2022-07-15 at 10.25.59 PM.png

    I knew they'd give us another goal (really, the goal is "always" just "more" signatures...) but it still just says "becomes one of the top signed", which I guess will never stop being false.

    Thanks anyway everyone! I may post an update to the petition within the week. I'm hoping to get to the point where other sites start covering the petition to increase the public pressure on Nintendo to add a real browser.

    I should also note that the browser is powered by NetFront, which is maintained by Access Co Ltd. Maybe it's worth sending some love / attention their way as well.

    I don't know what kind of deal they have with Nintendo, but it seems straightforward enough to imagine that there's potential revenue they're missing out on by not being a fully fledged browser app.

            Signed! Just one step closer to

            1. Reaching the goal
            2. Convincing Nintendo to release the browser

                              Low hanging fruit for Nintendo is just to allow another developer to make a browser, and put it on the eShop. They don’t have to support it directly. Security concerns should still be minimized, as constraints could be put on what the browser is allowed to do. (like an advanced Game Builder Garage)

                              Sign the petition! Help us figure out the browser timeout.

                                    C'mon, it's Nintendo. Even if the whole world, excluding the people at Nintendo, signed the petition, they wouldn't change a thing.

                                      This petition is actually in the top 10 (it's number 10 lol) of petitions to Nintendo on the Change.org website:

                                      Link Preview Image

                                      Petitions to Nintendo. Start a petition. Read their response.

                                      The top one though they actually did do (Paper Mario Thousand Year Door remake) although they never did an official response.

                                        (to clarify, yeah, they've never officially responded to anything though)

                                        best bet is probably hoping that enough attention is on it for the Switch 2 to have improvements in this area
