It would appear as though Nintendo has a cloud save system for the Nintendo Switch but at the moment only Nintendo employees can access it. The news was discovered via Reddit user Patsuann who sent in the console in for repair but noticed when he received it back none of the game saves were stored on the system memory. However, the user did notice that there was a cloud icon next to the games. Patsuann was prompted to download an update and after that the save data was back on the system.
So that’s the reason you can’t move or backup your save files.
I wish Nintendo could make that available to everyone in a future update. Maybe something similar to Google Drive.
Switch Drive, Nintendo’s cloud storage site. They already have Pokemon Bank, why not one for console save data?
Well I kind of presume that’s exactly what they are going to do.
It’s a given, and probably part of the online sub service.
I do not enjoy when High Command’s plans gets leaked by some lower grunt with less competence…
However the amusement I get from when the X-Bots and the rest of the masses’ “arguements” drop dead out of the sky make up for it.
Don’t blame the leaker but the guys at Nintendo who fucked up & forgot to put the save data back on there themselves when they sent it back to said leaker instead of leaving the icon on the system that allowed the leaker to leak the information in the first place. Besides, fuck Nintendo for keeping this a damn secret from us in the first fucking place! There is no reason to be paranoid about cloud saving since everyone else already bloody does it.
Hang on…isn’t this available to everyone? Archive a save file and then load the game save back up. The cloud icon appears….
That’s not being saved online on Nintendo’s servers.
It wasn’t automatically available for the 3ds at the start, so I’m sure we’ll get it. :)

The only feature I needed from the Switch.
Is it coming or not? Why does Nintendo not provide a straight answer for this? It’s kind of ridiculous. If they’re really serious about charging for online, something like cloud save had better be there.
