The relationship between Nintendo and Amazon has been strained in recent months. After the cancellation of multiple pre-sales of Big N games, it seems that both companies are preparing for a breakup. One of the clues that point to this is the removal of gift cards from the eShop.
At this time, it is impossible to purchase an eShop gift card from Amazon or Nintendo. The only way to do this is through third parties, who do not offer the same guarantee as official companies. Unfortunately, at the moment it is unknown what caused this closure, and if there is a possibility of solving the problems between the two companies.
Recall that last month, Amazon canceled multiple pre-orders for games like Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and L.uigi’s Mansion 2 HD. Thus, many are wondering what will happen to the Switch 2. While brick-and-mortar stores are still important, there is no denying the fact that many people prefer to shop online, and if there is no official distributor on Amazon for Nintendo’s next console, this could be a problem for both companies.
We can only wait to see what will happen in this case. For now, The only way to get a gift card for the eShop on Amazon is through third parties. In related topics, Nintendo reveals the total sales of the Switch. Likewise, the Big N talks about the release date of the Switch 2.
Author’s Note:
This is a case that can get out of control quickly. If Nintendo and Amazon fail to find a solution to their problems, fans will suffer the consequences, and without regulation, then abuses and misplaced prices will be common.
