Do you know if Nintendo is going to add more streaming platforms like Netflix, Max, or even YouTube TV to the system? If so, could they also benefit from the 4k experience? (with a 4k tv of course)
I only ask because I know the Xbox and PS5 can handle the streaming services, I didn't know if Nintendo is finally breaking into a more "hub" for all things tv/gaming.
Good question! Honest answer? I don't think so. The Switch is clearly capable of running Netflix and other streaming services (most devices are these days). However, Nintendo only added Funimation, Hulu, and a YouTube app during the lifetime of the Switch.
I wouldn't rule it out, but I think Nintendo is happy to let other devices fill the gap when it comes to streaming services. I'd love to see it, though!

Ah unfortunate, I figured that would be the case. Thanks for the response!
