IT Home reported on January 4 that the "NintendoSwitch Official Store" WeChat Mini Program released a "Maintenance Announcement" today, claiming that "due to system update and maintenance", the Nintendo Switch Official WeChat Store will suspend service on January 15, 2024, and consultation, orders and after-sales service will be temporarily unacceptable from then on, and the recovery time will be notified separately after the system update and maintenance is completed.
The announcement also stated that in the "system update and maintenance process", if users still have after-sales related needs, they need to go to the customer service area of the "Tencent Nintendo Switch" official account to initiate it.
It is reported that the "NintendoSwitch Official Mall" WeChat Mini Program certification enterprise is "Shenzhen Tencent Computer System Co., Ltd.", and IT Home also checked the official website of Bank of China Switch, and no relevant maintenance announcements were found, so this "system maintenance" should be limited to the "WeChat Official Mall Mini Program".
Tencent introduced the Switch game console in 2019, and the battery life enhanced version was priced at 2099 yuan, and in January 2022, Tencent introduced the Switch OLED national version at a price of 2599 yuan.

According to previous reports, Tencent announced in November last year that the Nintendo Switch extended warranty program will be suspended at 17:00 on December 10, 2023. The extended warranty plan will be discussed and analyzed in detail, and a value-added service plan that is "more suitable for product characteristics and experience Xi" will be brought at an appropriate time in the future.
