See, the player pre-loaded the game onto their Nintendo Switch Lite and, unexpectedly, was able to start playing the game despite Nintendo’s previously announced delay. This can be seen on the following tweet:

Probably because the tweets were starting to go viral and Nintendo wanted to nip the issue in the bud before more of the game would be leaked. Advance Wars 1+2: Re-boot Camp is a remake of the well-loved GBA entries in the series (Advance Wars and Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising) made by Nintendo and WayForward. Recently, Nintendo delayed the game from its April 8 release date in response to the war effort between Ukraine and Russia. While there wasn’t clearer reasoning behind this besides the escalating tensions and current events. The parallels between the factions at war in the games alongside several other factors were what made Nintendo’s decision pretty clear. Unfortunately, this means that players will still have to wait for an unknown time before the game is considered for release again. Advance Wars 1+2: Re-boot Camp is going to be released exclusively on the Nintendo Switch… Eventually.
