The Nintendo Games direct sales famine that lasted for more than a year has finally come to an end.This incident, which was once dubbed by players as "the most mysterious commercial cold war in the game industry", was quietly resolved without giving an official explanation by both sides.Last weekend, a number of Switch2 first-party games, including "Dong Qigang: All-Opening", suddenly reappeared on Amazon's official sales list.

Since April last year, players have discovered that pre-sale orders for Nintendo's new works such as "Luigi House 2 HD" have been cancelled for no reason and cannot be re-ordered.In the following year, Amazon sold Nintendo products only through third-party sellers.When Switch2 was first released this month, consoles and first-party games also missed Amazon's direct sales channels.This abnormal situation has caused many speculations in the player community. Until last weekend, IGN and other media discovered that Amazon has re-listed first-party games such as "Dong Qigang: All-Opening", "Super Mario Party: An unprecedented event", "Star Karbi: Exploration and Discovery + Star World", and the Switch2 product page also appeared briefly (currently removed from the shelves).

The cause of this business stalemate has remained a mystery.Some players speculated that it was related to the game spoilers caused by Amazon's early shipment, but neither party confirmed it.It is worth noting that Nintendo is the only mainstream game manufacturer to be directly removed from Amazon, while Sony and Microsoft products were sold normally during the same period.

Games that are currently resuming sales include:

"Dong Qigang: All-in-one Chanel" (released on November 15, 2025)

"Super Mario Party: An unprecedented event" (released on November 17, 2025)

"Star Kirby: Exploration and Discovery + Star World" (released on 2026.1.23)
