There are a ton of reasons you might want to record and stream gameplay from your Nintendo Switch. The console’s built in recording features leave a lot to be desired and there are no built-in streaming functions whatsoever.

It’s surprisingly easy and affordable especially since the software side is completely free! The only truly big limiting factor aside from the 20$ for a capture card is the system performance of your computer. Streaming and recording gameplay is taxing and it may not run optimally regardless of what card you’re able to buy so keep that in mind. You can try to adjust the settings in OBS to smaller resolutions and lower frame rates to help compensate. #NintendoSwitch #CaptureCard #Davenodon #NintendoStreaming Questions, suggestions, requests?
