No reason to mention unreleased games unless a statement has been made specifically confirming cloud saves won't be supported. Editing s list just to remove them after release seems like busy work.

Uhh.. the fuck? One of the most time-sink games and they don't support cloud saves? I would be scared the whole time knowing I can lose hours of progress and needing to start over.


Even though that could change, that's obviously not going to. If they won't let you keep Pokémon or splatoon because they're scared of people trading stuff/rerolling random things, there's no way they allow AC which can have both problems.

It's bullshit and it should never have been an option for developers to choose.

The fact that there is already a sizable number of upcoming games that don't support this feature is really- REALLY dumb.

Animal Crossing, a game people often put hundreds of hours into, won't have backups? Nintendo truly are the kings of stupid.

Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition and Fire Emblem Warriors appear to be compatible with cloud saving.

No no no. You don't understand.

It's totally worth putting everyone who buys the games saves at risk, as they chose to advertise the benefits of cloud saves in the direct, otherwise some boogieman could just give away a blue table and then download the save to get it back. Totally worth it.

Half of that list is wrong, and a lot of the titles that haven't released yet wouldn't be confirmed for having cloud saves until they get put on the eShop.

This is an easy way to create fodder for shitty blogs to now spread this false info throughout the internet.

I'm really leaning towards keeping my Switch always offline and hacking it just to be able to have my saves comfortably backed up. I'm at that point now where every other system I have has a legitimate way for me to feel like my save files are secured and not being held ransom and I just can't support Nintendo for doing this. All of the games on the unsupported list are the sort of games I want to be able to keep safe. Please Nintendo, just give us local save backups and stop trying to sell a feature to push your paid online agenda when the feature in question isn't 100 percent supported by your game library!

I was about to say wouldn't it be quicker to list the titles that didn't support it. Then I saw the list of noncompatible software. Holy fuck Nintendo.

There is far too many games that do not support cloud saves. Jeez

I own like 8 titles from that incompatible list and they all got backed up in the cloud. Literally by me. Manually.

In fact a handful of other ones say they support cloud save in the actual eShop listing.

Okay so the list is wrong? And it seems fishy that FFXII wouldn't support cloud saves.
Literally the only thing this list went off of was Nintendo website listings for games not including text saying it supports Cloud Saves.

Little Dragon's Café does not say it supports cloud saving on its Nintendo listing.

It says so in its eShop listing.

Hoping that not supported list will gain support. I had my original New Leaf cartridge stolen about 80 hours in and I literally cried over losing my village for hours. Would not wish losing AC data on anyone :(

Thread appears to be based on unreliable information.

When the situation becomes clearer someone can make another thread.
