Petition to Nintendo: Expose the Switch's hidden web browser

[lovejoy]

@soraskeyblade yes! were almost there!

[Rayman2960]

We really need an update for the Browser.

yes expose the browser to the switch i would appreciate it

[oniichan]

i'ma just say this it probably won't be made an actual app on the switch and will stay exactly how it already is

[zeldatotk]

• i think I should make it availablefor everyone

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)

:p

@VGMoose ooooo

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

[VGMoose]

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

https://www.change.org/decision-makers/nintendo-50

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

[VGMoose]

(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

[mr cat]

where getting closer i see

[Biblecampvictim]

is the nintendo switch th perfect console?

[Sparten177]

Man i Can't stnd with game companies messing up the fun and don't do a thing to fix things to build up the community.

[Selene]

Has anyone tried taking them to court to attempt to force them to provide a web browser, or at least respond to the petition? I am genuinely curious if enough people tried this what would happen, since they're ignoring this change.org petition and will probably continue to do so...

edit: I am not an attorney by any means, I just have represented myself in civil litigation on several occasions.

@MalWolf

yeah frfr.

[Catboy Gaming]

@Selene They're not breaking any laws, or harming anyone by not "revealing" the switch browser, it would be a giant waste of money

Besides, fighting Nintendo in court is a death sentence, they have lawyers that'll basically make sure you won't win

[niftys knife]
