What is scheduled to change?
Nintendo’s Australian support notice says Google and Apple account linking will end on January 26, 2027. This will stop those methods from signing in to a Nintendo Account or creating a new one. The My Nintendo Platinum Points mission for linking Google will also end.
Nintendo warns that the exact shutdown time could be delayed by the system-change work. The notice does not establish a local cutoff hour here.
Check an alternative login before the change
Nintendo says to use the email address or Sign-In ID and password belonging to your Nintendo Account, or a registered passkey. Its support notice links to passkey registration.
If you have not set a password or have forgotten it, use the password-reset option on Nintendo’s official login page. Confirm that you can receive email at the account’s registered address.
Existing sessions and recovery
A device already signed in may not ask you to log in again immediately. That is not a guarantee that the session will last indefinitely.
If a reset email does not arrive after waiting, or you have lost access to the registered email address, Nintendo directs you to its customer support team.
