The Nintendo Switch was just taken offline in Mainland China, not that it was terribly popular anyway, because it only had around 10 games available for it.
The video game market in China has essentially been dominated by a company called Tencent for years, who are known for poor customer experiences and frustrating software. The Chinese were enshittifying online services years before the word “enshittify” was coined.

Doesn’t Tencent also have a stake in Reddit?
