POLL: Hey Nintendo Switch 2 players, have you used Game Chat yet?

The Nintendo Switch 2's first week is nearly in the books, and it's been an exciting one to be a gamer, as is any new console launch. But the Switch 2 has been different. Nintendo just confirmed the new handheld console hybrid sold over 3.5 million units in its first four days alone, meaning it's the fastest-selling Nintendo hardware ever globally. That means it's the biggest console launch of all time, too, outpacing the PS5 and PS4 and just about everything else. https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1932620051955270127 The Switch 2 is a suped-up Switch 1, but it also comes with a bunch of new features, one of them being Game Chat. Using a USB-C camera, players can get into chats with friends in both voice and video form, and also share screens to broadcast gameplay in the party. It feels like a pretty awesome new piece of tech, but I'm just wondering, has anyone actually used it yet? I haven't had the chance, mainly because only one of the people on my friend list (that I know of) has a Switch 2 already. I was one of the lucky first few people to see Game Chat in action at a special closed-doors event in New York City the week before the Switch 2 launched, and I was pretty blown away by seeing it in action. But now I'm wondering, now that it's out in the wild, who's using the feature. Let us know in the comments below and answer our poll so we can get a better idea of how Game Chat is faring so far.
