Very surprising given they never featured any communication systems! I always figured they want to be 100% family safe and any chat/communication feature could be missused against that. A welcome feature though, now i'd only need friends.

MODERATORS
Now that this line is crossed they can bring back Miiverse please
Ehhhh it's cool that this is a feature, but boy did it look laggy.
Maybe they've finally figured out how to internet after all these years 😅
I'll believe that if scrolling the shop list of games works without lagging and crashing.
I really hope they'll fix the eshop...
Does it really take up a third of the screen the whole time? I really hope this is for demonstration only...
No, you can have the game full screened, you can have friends showing at the bottom, or you can focus a friends screen as the big one.
I asume it's a setting to show it or not. Otherwise it would be very annoying, i don't need to see face of people i play with.
I think they showed 2 different sizes, one had 4 users taking full width, and one had it taking about half screen width. Height was proportional to width in both.
