Quote, we assume some players will have somebody on their friends list who they've only played online with once, and yet somehow they ended up accepting their friend request. Given that possibility, players might feel uncomfortable if suddenly everyone on their friends list can invite them to a video chat, Ono said.

With that in mind, during the initial setup, you can choose the friends you want to be able to chat with from your friends list before you start using game chat, end quote. Andy, I'll tell you straight up, you're going to be the only person I had. I want to be able to interrupt your streams. Come in in cool costumes, you know? Nah, I'm okay. It'll be fun. You'll love it.

If you join a room created by a friend, players will only see people you or your friend have approved from game chat. Before joining a room, players will see if a friend of a friend is in the room. If they don't want to join for any reason, they don't have to. With regard to protecting the safety of children, Ono said Nintendo had, quote, a lot of internal discussion on this topic.

It was decided that children under 16 can only use game chat with people on their friend list if their parent or guardian has given permission via the Nintendo Switch parental controls app. Quote, in the case of voice chat, once a parent gives their child approval to chat with a particular person, their child will always be able to connect with the approved person from then on, Ono said.

Nintendo takes an even more cautious approach to video chats. When a child tries to start or join a video chat on their Switch 2, a request is sent to the parent's app. The request must then be approved before the video chat can begin. While children may feel a bit restricted, we decided to prioritize safety and require parents to approve the request every time Ono said.

Then they have a subhead here I like. Is the Switch 2 camera spying on you? The Nintendo Switch 2 camera has a privacy shutter that closes when not in use. As such, players should be able to see at a glance if the camera is on or off. Quote, we want everyone to feel comfortable using this feature, so we've placed a high priority on safety to avoid any unpleasant experiences.

Of course, we want all players to follow the community guidelines, even when chatting with friends, Ono said.

Miyamoto's like, can you join? I need your parent. It's too much. Don't worry about it. You're not the primary account family holder of the Nintendo Switch online plan, so it's all blah, blah, blah, blah.

which we don't even use because he wants to use my saves and everything else or whatever. But I'm like, oh, he's just a kid tinkering or whatever. He's super stoked for Donkey Kong and Mario Kart and all that jazz, and he's not going online anytime soon. But it is like, oh, I should get the parental controls app. I should actually look into that. You know what I mean?
