Nintendo Will End Support For Google, Apple Logins

As of January 26, 2027, Nintendo announced that players will no longer be able to use their Google or Apple accounts to log into their Nintendo account. This will also end any My Nintendo Points program missions related to your Google account.

The full statement is available on the Nintendo support website in Japan. As you won’t be able to log in anymore with your Google or Apple credentials, you won’t be able to use them to make new Nintendo accounts either. The change will go into place at 4 PM JST, which converts to 11 PM PT of the previous day/2 AM ET. Because of the progress of the system change, this may be delayed.

Instead of using Google or Apple to log in, you’ll need to use a password. If you haven’t set one for your Nintendo account yet, or you’ve forgotten it, you can reset your password here. As a reminder, you have until late January 2027 to do this. If you want, you can also register a passkey to log into your account. This can be an additional layer of security, even for those who already have and use a password.

As of January 26, 2027, you will no longer be able to link your Nintendo account to your Google or Apple accounts.
