So yeah, with the release lineup including Breath of the Wild, I, of course, will be getting a Switch on release date on march the third. There is one single thing that bothers me, and that's the fact that I don't have an audio system except the shitty speakers on my monitor. I intend to plug the Switch into my monitor and play it right there and then, and I'm now wondering if, since my PC will still be plugged in, I could somehow manage top get the sound data from the switch to the monitor to my set of headphones plugged into the PC. That's not possible, right? I mean, perhaps the switch has an audio jack but I doubt it.

 

Thx anyways!

Wut the WiiU didn't why would the Switch have one. And I meant a 3.5mm audio jack, the big ones you know, not the cellphone type jack on the remote

I think he means on the controller itself (which yes the WiiU had)

The Switch has a headphone jack if you're using the screen in handheld mode, not sure if you're using the Pro Controller.

Because the tablet is the system. There is an audio jack on the top of it.

Yeye I know the tablet's the system, and true I was mistaken the wiiu remote did have an audio jack, though it was the cellphone mini jack or whatever the specification is, I'm wondering if it's the big jack though, think the actual dimensions are 6.35mm though, not 3.5 as I first though.

You really think it's a 1/4" jack? Lol
