Nintendo is back with more Switch 2 confusion: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom won't support cloud saves on Switch 2, nobody knows why, and even Nintendo's own store pages can't agree

The Switch 2 continues to be a deeply confusing console, with Nintendo's latest curveball being a small notation at the bottom of some Switch 2 games' product pages saying those games aren't compatible with the Switch Online's Cloud save feature.

For the uninitiated, the officially titled Save Data Cloud feature is a perk of the Switch Online subscription that lets you save game data to the cloud instead of exclusively to your console. It's a simple, convenient way to back up save data and facilitate cross-console continuity, but for whatever reason, it seems some Switch 2 games just aren't compatible with it.
