Download Article Show Download Article Since there is no app for Discord on the Nintendo Switch, you'll need a computer to get your Switch screen to stream then play the display screen in a window (using VLC or any other video player) so Discord will show it. This wikiHow will teach you how to stream Nintendo Switch to Discord using a video capture card, which you can get from almost any electronics retailer, like Best Buy or Amazon. If, however, you have a laptop or computer with an HDMI "In" port, you will not need a video capture card since you can plug the Switch directly into your computer (those computers are not common though).
