Much like the pre-order cancelations, there’s no clear reason why Amazon would do this.

Stop endlessly scrolling through the eShop and just pick something from this much more succinct list of great games.

One leading theory is that Nintendo and Amazon have had a falling out of some kind.

However, gift cards are still available on Amazon in other countries.

Nintendo also still has a storefront on Amazon through which most of its games remain available.

Another theory is Nintendo is winding down sales of eShop gift cards in preparation forits Switch 2 announcement.

That doesn’t explain why Amazon canceled pre-orders for upcoming games, though.

What’s Going On Between Amazon And Nintendo?

Curiouser and curiouser, although something like this being shrouded in mystery is hardly out of character for Nintendo.

It’s also likely that if the reasoning is ever explained, it still won’t make much sense.

The fantastic new indie game is available for less on select platforms for a limited time.
