Re: Rumour: Switch References In Call Of Duty Site Code Start Chins A-Waggin'

@graysoncharles @sanderev Actually you can. For instance, here's how you can easily access Facebook (I've done it before and it works but not sure if they've updated the page since then):

When you go into the screen to hook up your Facebook account, instead of typing in your username or password, use your controller to click on one of the Facebook links on the screen instead (privacy policy, terms, etc.). From there, you can go back to the Facebook home page by clicking on the Facebook logo using your controller. This will take you to the login screen. Go ahead and log in. This will keep you in the browser and allow you to use Facebook on the Switch.

There's also a way to do it in the system settings, but I honestly can't remember how it's done.

In an old version of the Switch OS, the eShop had an issue pulling up after losing the internet connection and I was able to do it there as well (since the eShop is essentially a PWA mobile app in disguise as @link3710 kind of alluded to). Again, this may have also been patched. I'm sure if you experiment, you might be able to find a way to get it to work.

Re: Japanese Poll Discovers That Vast Majority Of Viewers Were Pleased With The Nintendo Direct

@BulkSlash I didn't have an overall negative feeling with the Direct, but I did leave a little disappointed. Some things that were missing (and stood out):

**Animal Crossing
**Pokémon (I don't care personally, but I know a lot of other people do)
**Metroid Prime Trilogy

Overall though, I am very pleased, especially with the knowledge that my favorite Zelda game will soon be available on Switch.

Re: Talking Point: What Does The Nintendo Seal Of Quality Mean In 2019?

nintendork64

My opinion: the Seal of Quality should be exactly that. Nintendo should have two tiers of games:

Seal of Quality Games - Games that are fully backed and tested by Nintendo for quality and workmanship, to make sure they have the best compatibility and performance with Nintendo products and systems. This should be optional for publishers who want to make their games stand out from the competition.

Non-Seal of Quality Games - Games that are released and published by 3rd parties who choose not to have their games run through Nintendo's rigorous Seal of Quality tests. These games will hopefully be of high quality, but customers will be able to tell immediately that this is not always the case.
