Nintendo may have enacted a temporary sales ban of games and services in
Russia following the invasion of Ukraine.
入侵烏克蘭後,任天堂已經在俄羅斯頒布了臨時的遊戲和銷售禁令。
俄羅斯遊戲玩家無法再在 Nintendo eShop 上購買內容和服務。區域 eShop 支持頁面證
實,任天堂的支付系統已暫時限制使用俄羅斯貨幣盧布作為有效的支付方式。
“由於 Nintendo eShop 中使用的支付服務已暫停處理盧布支付,因此俄羅斯的
Nintendo eShop 暫時進入維護模式。對於給您帶來的任何不便,我們深表歉意。我們將
隨著情況的發展分享更新。”
Russian gamers can no longer purchase content and services on the Nintendo
eShop. The regional eShop support page confirms Nintendo's payment processor
has temporary restricted the ruble, Russia's currency, as a valid form of
payment.
This is likely due to economic sanctions against Russia that have blocked
seven major banks from accessing SWIFT, a messaging system that instructs
worldwide bank transactions (such as the digital purchases used in the
eShop). Nintendo serves Russia as part of its Nintendo of Europe subsidiary.
"Due to the fact that the payment service used in Nintendo eShop has
suspended the processing of payments in rubles, Nintendo eShop in Russia is
temporarily placed into maintenance mode. We apologize for any inconvenience
caused. We will share updates as the situation develops."
Meanwhile, companies like Microsoft have enacted a temporary sales ban in
Russia. Nintendo has yet to confirm Russian restrictions of its own.
