Nintendo has announced that it will soon be removing the integration of X (formerly Twitter) from Switch, Switch Lite, and Switch OLED platforms. Since the Switch launched back in 2017, the console has had the ability to easily post images to Twitter by linking one's personal account. Now, this feature is set to go away, as it has on PlayStation and Xbox platforms, in a little more than one month.
Detailed on Nintendo's support site, the publisher revealed that the use of X on Switch will vanish next month on June 10th. At this time, Switch users will no longer be able to upload screenshots from the console to their own social media account. In addition, Nintendo says that they will no longer be able "to send friend requests to friends on social media from within the Nintendo Switch friend suggestions feature." For the time being, Nintendo says that it will continue to support this feature for Facebook, although it too might "be discontinued at a later date."
