Overview
- Nintendo released its official maintenance schedule for the week of October 25, 2026, with the notice circulated by specialist outlets after the company posted the timings.
- The 3DS is scheduled for an “all network services” window on Monday, October 26 from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM Pacific Time, which may prevent users from reinstalling purchased titles during that two-hour period.
- The Nintendo Store mobile app on iOS and Android will undergo maintenance on Monday, October 26 from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM Pacific Time, which could temporarily block browsing and purchases in the store app.
- Switch user-data and save-data transfer work is set for Tuesday, October 27 from 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM Pacific Time, and Nintendo Switch Online cloud-save maintenance affecting both Switch and Switch 2 is set for the night of October 28–29 from 10:30 PM to 1:30 AM Pacific Time; both windows can interrupt transfers and cloud-save access.
- Although Nintendo shut down broad 3DS online services in 2024, the company has kept limited backend support to allow actions like reinstalling games, and outlets such as Nintendo Everything and Nintendo Life are relaying the schedule so players can plan around short interruptions.
