Peacock TV has been a great streaming app I’ve enjoyed watching over the years on many devices. And if you’re anything like me, you may be wondering if Peacock TV is on the Nintendo Switch.

Peacock TV streaming service is not on Nintendo Switch as of 2021 and there is no way to add Peacock TV to Nintendo Switch now or in the foreseeable future. Neither NBCUniversal nor Nintendo has commented on whether the popular streaming app will come to Nintendo’s hybrid gaming console.

Peacock TV may not currently be on Nintendo Switch, but other video game systems and devices can download the application.
