When Nintendo announced Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze for Switch, you may recall that Nintendo pulled the listing from the Wii U eShop. Something similar has now happened with Pikmin 3.

Pikmin 3 Deluxe was revealed for Switch earlier today, and the original version is no longer available on the Wii U eShop. Searching for the game doesn’t bring up any results. A Pikmin 3 Wii U listing is still up on Nintendo’s website (for now anyway), but there’s no option to buy a digital copy.

King of Fighters R-2, a fighting game from the Neo Geo Pocket Color era, was confirmed for Switch during the New Game+ Expo earlier this summer. It was originally expected sometime in July, though the month just went by without any updates from SNK.

The good news is that King of Fighters R-2 has actually just released – well, in Japan that is. It’s out now on the Japanese eShop, though we’re still waiting for the game in the west. It’s possible that we could end up seeing it in North America and Europe after the regular store update tomorrow.
