   Spent a couple hours streaming last night on my dad's #ps4 . I've got to say that the experience is genuinely really, really nice. You connect up your Twitch account (scan a qr code), then you can press the share button and choose to start broadcasting to Twitch. There's a setting to pipe all of the game audio to your headphones and you can adjust levels easily from the quick menu's audio settings. Really hope the #switch is able to come up with something nearly as good.

      Of course that means that the #switch needs a controller with audio support. I've personally been calling for replacing the IR Camera, which will never be used, with a DAC and headphone jack from the beginning. If I'm using that then I'm probably not playing with 8 players, so the loss of a bluetooth connection for the audio won't be missed.

         Additionally (trying to keep conversation neat) we know that the #switch is capable of it. They recently debuted a video share feature which makes use of nvidia's shadow play technology: the last 30 seconds of gameplay, if the game allows it, are constantly recorded and can be shared with a long press of the share button to twitter or facebook. The only catch I can think of is that given the switch's already weak wifi, maybe it won't allow streaming while online (splatoon, etc.)
