Hi
The cross plattform play on switch is not working.
Me and my children have played on mobile(local LAN) for a while. But wanted another client so all three can play together. So I bought it for the Nintendo Switch aswell.
But... The Switch can't see the other devices, and the other devices can't see the Switch.
I have static ip's on every device. Checked the networking settings in my router. Logged in to my microsoft account on every device. Anyhow... It's broken. And as I don't have a jailbroken switch I can't check any debugging logs to give to you.
It feels quite frustrating that when you want to support a game and buying it for multiple formats, you drop support for a very common format. That's what I experience when i google the problem.

I have realised that you can't use LAN to other devices through the switch. THAT is not very well communicated!
As per your version spreadsheet you list switch as cross plattform. No notes about non-LAN play.
Anyhow, problem still exists. Even though I'm logged in with gamertag, even tested to create new gamertag. And trying to get it to connect. With no success. Cross play is totally broken.
