In a somewhat unexpected move, SEGA has decided to delist SEGA Genesis Classics on the Nintendo Switch eShop.
The collection will no longer be available for purchase starting on December 6 at 11:59 PM PT / December 7 at 2:59 AM ET. Anyone that buys it before that date will still be able to play and redownload it in the future. In other words, it will not be removed from your library.

Here’s a rundown of what to expect:

Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa has briefly spoken about Switch sales for the holidays in light of a new console looming on the horizon.
