Nintendo Switch Online is losing a classic game for the first time
Briefly

Nintendo announced that the Super Famicom game Super Formation Soccer will be removed from the Nintendo Switch Online service in Japan on March 28. The company did not provide a reason but mentioned that the game is a third-party property, suggesting that its licensing might have expired. Released in 1991 by Human Entertainment, the game was part of several properties acquired by Spike Chunsoft after Human's bankruptcy in 2000. It remains unclear if the game will also be removed in North America and Europe, raising questions about the fate of other third-party games on the platform.
