"He didn't actually confirm Nintendo had approved it," user Incrediblebulk92 noted. For one, there's a huge difference between Sampson saying that Rainway will be on the Nintendo eShop and Nintendo approving it. According to a reddit thread that sprung up in the wake of Rainway's buzz, there's a few hurdles the app will have to clear first to make it to the finish line. If this seems a little too good to be true, that's because it might be. Rainway App Nintendo Switch: Here are the foreseeable problems with the app's implementation

A free app that basically hijacks the Switch and gives it the ability to stream games from your PC could be extremely bad for Nintendo, especially if it means the difference between streaming Stardew Valley off your Steam account instead of, say purchasing a copy of Stardew Valley for the Switch. But it could also have huge consequences for Nintendo as well. If it works, and works well, it could be huge. Sampson hasn't stated when the app will be released for the Switch proper, but has stated that he'd like to test it out on some beta consoles in May, according to My Nintendo News.

According to Sampson, you'll be able to do this for free - he's promised in his statement that the app is free - without installing any sort of extra hardware - Rainway will work as long as what you're attempting to stream from has a GPU that supports DirectX 11. Rainway App Nintendo Switch: Here are the details about the forthcoming appĪccording to Nintendo Life, developer Andrew Sampson is making an app called Rainway, which would allow you to stream PC games to your Nintendo Switch via a web browser at 60 fps.
What's more, they've promised that it will be available on the Nintendo eShop - for free. However, if you're interested in another side of streaming, an app developer has announced he's got something that will allow you to stream PC games to your switch. This isn't surprising since Nintendo said as much about streaming apps before the Switch launched, but still. Case in point: outside of hacking, there's no way to access Netflix on the Switch. The Nintendo Switch's greatest asset is its portability, and yet Nintendo's own commitment to what that portability means is still a little uneven.
