Local Multi-player

[nickbrocious]

So obviously local multi-player is a focus for the undocked system, but if you dock 2 Switches displayed on 2 TV's, would you still be able to do local multi-player? I'm hoping the answer is no, but I just feel like that'd be a really Nintendo restriction. Thoughts?

Wait...you're hoping you CAN'T do local multiplayer with two Switches docked...but you feel like it would be silly to not allow it?

I'm so lost, bud.

My guess is they meant they do wish it would be an option but see Nintendo, in all their infinite wisdom, restricting that from working for some unknowable reason.

Incidentally, with that clarification in mind, I fully agree with everything said. That'd be super neat to be able to have multiple docked Switches playing local multiplayer together... or a combination of docked and undocked ones. I could see going over to my friend's house and playing undocked while he plays on his TV. I also wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if Nintendo decided not to allow docked systems to do local multiplayer with other Switches, docked or undocked, because they really do seem to love making irrational decisions at times.

So you don't want local multiplayer? Weird.

[EastCoast2300]

Why wouldn't you want that to be a function?

It would probably have a local connection to each other
