Hold your horses,Karen Foster Archives you Netflix-loving Nintendo Switch players: There's still hope that your favorite streaming service could come to your gaming console of choice.

Netflix's customer service Twitter account @Netflixhelps responded to an inquiry on Sunday from a Twitter user asking whether Netflix would be available on Switch any time soon. To the dismay of the internet, @Netflixhelps responded “There are currently no plans for Netflix on Nintendo Switch.”

But miracle of miracles! One day later, Netflix reversed course. They deleted the original response and replaced it with something more open-ended.

Ultimately, it's still up in the air if Netflix will or will not come to Nintendo Switch, but if it does, that would make it only the second streaming service available on the Switch (Nintendo added Hulu to the Switch eShop in November).

But of course, nothing's certain — all we know is that Netflix on Switch isn't completely outside of the realm of possibilities.
