Important Changes to the Nintendo Account Authorization System
Nintendo has officially announced that it will discontinue support for linking Google and Apple accounts to Nintendo Accounts. The changes will take effect on January 26, 2027, although the exact completion time may shift slightly due to the technical specifics of the system update.
What Does This Mean for Users?
Once the changes are implemented, players will face the following restrictions:
- It will no longer be possible to use Google or Apple accounts to sign in to a Nintendo Account;
- It will no longer be possible to create a new Nintendo Account through Google or Apple authorization;
- The My Nintendo rewards program mission to earn Platinum Points for linking a Google account will also be discontinued.
Nintendo apologizes for any inconvenience to all users who relied on these services for quick sign-in. If you used these authorization methods, please ensure that an up-to-date email address is linked to your account and that a secure password is set for direct login.
