Overview
- SEGA’s crossover sports game disappeared Tuesday from the Nintendo eShop in North America, Japan, and Australia, while it still showed up for sale in parts of Europe.
- SEGA confirmed on its Japanese website that the title is no longer available to buy digitally.
- Existing owners can still redownload the game, and physical cartridges remain on store shelves at major retailers.
- Neither Nintendo nor SEGA has given a reason for the delisting, though outlets point to a probable Olympics licensing expiry that aligns with the fiscal year cutoff.
- The 2019 release is the only Mario & Sonic game on Switch, and its removal renews questions about the series’ future and highlights how licensed games can vanish from digital stores.
