Nintendo Pulls Out of Russia, Suspends eShop Sales

Nintendo’s decision aligns with similar actions taken by other major console makers in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Microsoft and Sony ceased all sales from Russia over a year ago, and several game studios, including Epic, Activision Blizzard, and EA, followed suit by halting sales in the country. With Nintendo now joining these efforts, no major console manufacturer currently allows Russian users to purchase new games within the country.
