Capture video on Nintendo Switch

The video Capture option is disabled and I think that’s a shame. I’d love to capture my play of the games. Or random people accidentally jumping off the map. That’d be great. I hope this can be an option soon.

I would not expect it. The game had to have a lot of concessions (lower resolution, lower frame rate) in order to be playable on the Switch.

you…can always just hit that button on the joycon or pro controllers that takes snapshots or records gameplay if you hold it

The clip recording on switch takes more resources, and OW on the switch probably takes 100% of those resources as it is.

That said, I don’t know how the in-game clip feature is implemented on Switch. I imagine you can still export those highlights and such, right?

Not all games support video capture because it takes resources. In fact, a surprising amount of games DON’T support the video clip feature.

But you CAN take screenshots in all games. Just not always video.

does the switch have the replay feature in game?

I don’t own the switch version. I’m kinda curious if the in-game “highlights” feature is in there too, myself. And if people can still export those highlight videos to their album. Hopefully somebody who owns the Switch version or knows will reply. :slight_smile:

That’s what I meant but the video Capture with that button is disabled

Get a cheap elgato, they work great
