Nintendo is killing its Gold Points loyalty program

Nintendo is getting rid of the Gold Points loyalty program, possibly to prepare for the Switch 2's arrival.

Unfortunately, Nintendo announced that you won’t be able to earn Gold Points after 9:30 PM PDT on March 24 if you buy digital copies of games. Naturally, physical versions of games released after March 24, 2025, won’t let you earn any Gold Points. Nintendo’s decision to end the Gold Points loyalty program is possibly due to the Switch 2 ’s upcoming announcement and release.
