Not sure if you mentioned "through their hardware" specifically in reference to the Nintendo Switch Online mobile's voice chat capabilities, but man, that's always struck me as a weird/interesting choice.

On one hand, bizarre to silo voice chat into a completely different piece of hardware than the one you're gaming on that already has a microphone built in. On the other hand, it does make sense as a way to keep kiddos off the airwaves, since to use NSO's app you either need to have a phone or (hopefully...) get permission from a parent to use theirs. On the other other hand I'm just glad they've finally enabled any kind of voice chat at all.
