Intuitive Friend System

Nintendo has never quite been known for user-friendly friend systems, and are notorious for implementing the cumbersome “friend code” system across many of their platforms.

Though the Switch makes adding nearby friends quite easy, adding friends who are long distance is another story; the only way to add a non-local friend is to obtain their friend code or go through a “recently played” list, if you’ve played a game with them recently. Without an effective search option, this system can be somewhat clunky, especially if you want to add a friend that you may have not played with recently, and do not know their friend code.

In the future, it would be nice if this system came to reflect the more user-friendly methods used in other mainstream consoles.
