Nintendo Switch Online Lounge Details Have Been Datamined

Details about the Switch’s online app have been datamined from the console. Some fans have found this information by rooting around in the console’s data files and it seems to have a lobby function built in. The name was also found along with an image that comes with a typo which will hopefully get fixed when it becomes official.

Here is what was found within the source code:
