Nintendo is winding down Switch 1 sales in Europe

Nintendo will stop selling the original Switch console to European retailers in mid-February 2027. The decision is driven by new EU regulations requiring consumer electronics to have replaceable batteries, which has also prompted Nintendo to develop a Switch 2 model compliant with those rules for the European market.

Mario Kart Tour to shut down in September 2026

Nintendo has announced that Mario Kart Tour, the free-to-play mobile game launched six years ago, will shut down on September 29, 2026, at 11 p.m. PST on both iOS and Android. No offline version will be released, unlike Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp which received a premium offline version after its 2024 closure. Nintendo stopped automatic renewals and new subscriptions for the Gold Pass on July 7, and in-game currency purchases have been suspended. Gold Pass benefits will be free to all players from August 4 until the end of service. Nintendo had already ended development of new content for the game back in 2023.

Nintendo confirms Switch 1 consoles will be withdrawn from Europe following EU law change on batteries

Nintendo has confirmed that the original Switch, Switch Lite, and Switch OLED will be discontinued in Europe by mid-February 2027. The decision is driven by a 2023 EU law requiring portable gaming consoles to have user-replaceable batteries by 2027. Nintendo will begin rolling out revised versions of select products with user-replaceable batteries starting summer 2026, though the original Switch family will not receive such revisions and will simply be withdrawn from European markets. Sales of Switch 1 consoles will continue outside of Europe.

Original Switch console lineup to be discontinued in Europe by mid-February 2027

Nintendo will discontinue the original Switch, Switch Lite, and OLED models in Europe from mid-February 2027 to comply with EU legislation requiring accessible, replaceable consumer hardware batteries. All three models will continue to be manufactured through 2026 and remain available until the deadline. Revised Switch 2 consoles with replaceable batteries will begin rolling out in summer 2026, with replacement Joy-Con 2 controllers and Pro Controllers available in winter, and Nintendo 64 and GameCube controllers in early 2027. Battery replacement kits will also be sold via the Nintendo Store in Europe. There is no functional difference between current and revised products.

Nintendo stops selling the original Switch in Europe

Nintendo will discontinue all original Switch models (Switch, Switch Lite, Switch OLED) in Europe by mid-February 2027, driven by a new EU regulation requiring user-replaceable batteries in portable devices from 18 February 2027. Revised compliant versions will roll out starting summer 2026, with a Switch 2 featuring a replaceable battery arriving in autumn. The new Switch 2 battery is marginally smaller (5,172mAh vs 5,220mAh) and the console gains about 10g. Some accessories — including the original Switch Pro Controller and licensed Sega/SNES pads — will be retired without replacements. Nintendo has not confirmed whether the discontinuation will extend beyond Europe's 35 markets.
