I don't understand why everyone is OK with the Switch 2 missing a basic feature

Nintendo Switch 2 Lacking Basic Features

The author is perplexed as to why the Nintendo Switch 2 is missing basic features, particularly media streaming apps.

When the original Nintendo Switch was released in 2017, the author was excited to use its tablet form factor and built-in kickstand for streaming movies and TV shows.

While the 6.2-inch LCD display might not have been the most technically impressive for its time, the author thought its size would make for a more immersive experience compared to smartphones.

Despite enjoying games like Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey, the author notes that popular streaming apps like Netflix and Disney+ never arrived on the platform.

The Switch 2's potential as a mobile streaming device remains untapped, with major streaming services not taking advantage of it.

Author's summary: Switch 2 lacks basic streaming features.
