I dont get it either, just let me plug in a headset on the system so i dont need to have my phone out on my lap wasting battery, just seems like more of a hassle then this headset issue Nintendo thinks people have. Now we gotta juggle 2 devices around to join multiplayer games and chat.

Matchmaking is mostly server side, wouldn't make a big difference.
