Square Enix announced that a native Kingdom Hearts Collection is coming to Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 during the Nintendo Direct presentation. Today, the company has announced that they are being delisted from the eShop. If you’ve splashed out on these titles then you can only play them for another year before they no longer work. The Japanese company says that they will remain playable until Wednesday, June 9, 2027 and then they will just stop working.
Nintendo Switch Cloud Version titles in the KINGDOM HEARTS series were discontinued from sale as of 14:59 (UTC) on Tuesday, June 9, 2026. Even after the discontinuation of sales, these titles will remain playable until 14:59 (UTC) on Wednesday, June 9, 2027. We sincerely apologize to our valued customers for this sudden announcement.
Thanks to Edward B for sending in the news tip!
rip bozo dancing on the cloud version’s graves
Native ports ftw peak
That’s why I’m against the cloud…
Unfortunately, I feel like we’re heading in that direction a little more each year.
That’s Why I’m against Game-Key Cards
how that is the same?
we can still download wii games of their servers
That is a lie and I’m tired if people saying that. You can only redownload Wii and now 3DS games with a modded console. You are a Liar.
But it’s not a lie though. I can open up my 3DS eShop right now and redownload Pokemon Blue if I want. Look it up!
Dude, why are you spreading lies? You can still easily download video games you’ve already bought, even after the shutdown.
The cloud and digital are two completely different things… It’s unbelievable, these kinds of comments.
Once Nintendo Digital Storefronts shut own you can no longer redownload your purchased software to your console on the Internet without mods.
That’s absolutely false… besides, the Wii/Wii U and 3DS stores have been closed for a long time, but you can still redownload the games you bought before.
I can still download all of my virtual console games on my Wii, I know this because I did it 2 months ago.
Yeah Roll is just spreading straight up lies.
This is just incredibly false. If you choose to live in ignorance, that’d your prerogative, but don’t spread lies. Here’s the actual article from Nintendo on it. I have to do this all the time as I own a lot of 3DS games digitally.

This is a full on lie and the fact that it’s so easy for anyone to prove you wrong is crazy you keep posting this nonsense. Any 3ds right now you can redownload any purchased games I have personally done it as recent as this month. I can also say this for WiiU. I havnt used my Wii in years but can only imagine it’s the same.
