To avoid associations with the war in Ukraine, Nintendo has decided to postpone Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp again.
Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp, the remaster collection of the first two parts of the series for Switch, was supposed to be released on April 8th after postponements. Now Nintendo has decided to postpone the war game indefinitely due to the current situation. In the tactical role-playing games, you lead tanks, air forces and other heavy artillery into battle across a grid. In addition, one of the factions appearing in the game, Blue Moon, is based in Russia. The plot of the included first part begins with Blue Moon attacking another nation.
It is therefore not surprising that Nintendo wants to maintain piety and avoid negative associations. im on Twitter The official statement published states: “Due to current events, we have decided to postpone the release of Advance wars 1+2: Re-Bot Camp, which was originally scheduled for April 8th. We will provide information about a new release date at a later date time known.”
In the past, the release dates of Advance Wars were not under a good star. The first part appeared on September 10, 2001. At that time, the title in Europe and Japan was moved to next year due to the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center that followed just one day later.
