Gex Trilogy Removed from eShop Due to Compatibility Issues with Switch 2
June 19, 2025 - 20:00
In a notable development for retro gaming enthusiasts, Limited Run has requested that Nintendo remove the Gex Trilogy from the eShop, citing compatibility issues with the newly released Switch 2. This decision comes amidst growing concerns over the functionality of several classic titles on the latest hardware.
Despite the setback for fans of the beloved Gex franchise, there is a silver lining as a recent firmware update for the Switch 2 has successfully resolved issues with 12 of Limited Run's retro releases. This update has been welcomed by gamers eager to experience their favorite classics on the new console.
Limited Run's proactive approach in addressing these compatibility concerns highlights the challenges developers face when adapting older games for modern systems. As the gaming community continues to embrace the nostalgia of retro titles, it remains to be seen how other developers will respond to similar issues as the Switch 2 gains traction in the market.
