Nintendo has announced that it will be discontinuing the “Easy Login” service for Nintendo accounts using Google or Apple profiles.
From January 26th, 2027, it will no longer be possible to use this integration, and users will not be able to create new Nintendo accounts using Google or Apple.
Once the service has ended, users must log in either with the email address tied to their Nintendo account, or a passkey, which allows access by using a fingerprint or face on a smartphone.
A mission on the My Nintendo program, which awards points for linking a Google account, will also be removed.
Nintendo noted in the Q&A section that this is due to “the termination of our partnership with Google and Apple.”
