Nintendo of America has sent out a press release confirming that there will be no Virtual Console when the Nintendo Switch goes on sale next week.
The statement which comes at the bottom of a Nindies press release says simply;
Virtual Console games will not be available on Nintendo Switch at launch. We will share more information in the future.
We’ll endeavour to find out why, but for now – that’s all we have to go one.
Disappointing.
From Mario to Zelda, to Splatoon to Donkey Kong. Everything on Nintendo Music.
Definitively done with the Wii U now.
But it's not for everyone yet.
