Tiny Metal returns to the European Switch eShop

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments

Earlier in the month, Tiny Metal went missing on the European Switch eShop. It has since been restored.

According to Area 35, Tiny Metal was temporarily taken down due to a mistake with the rating. We speculated that this was the reason for its removal, as we’ve seen something similar happen with a couple of other games.

Tiny Metal currently missing on the European Switch eShop

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 2 Comments

Games disappear from the eShop from time to time. The latest example of this is Tiny Metal, which is no longer available in Europe.

Tiny Metal’s developer hasn’t offered up an explanation for the removal. We assume that it’s only temporary, as has been the case in the past. It could be a ratings issue.

Tiny Metal still remains on other regional eShops. If you’re interested in purchasing the title, you can grab it off of the North American store.
