Homebrew Question Cloud save backup

[achandab]

After hearing about how Nintendo online will not have full cloud backup for all games I've decided to totally abandoned Nintendo online and risk the ban. However I'm hoping there will be homebrew software for cloud based backups via Google drive or similar. Im aware of checkpoint as a local game save application but does anyone know if the developer intends to add cloud save option or if there is a homebrew application for cloud saves in development?

did Nintendo ever give a reason for not being able to backup saves in this manner, certain ones I mean, or did I miss it in that article?

Just dump your saves and place them on google drive.

No reason I'm aware of. They said cloud saves should be on by default for all games however some big names are missing from the list

that really sucks. I'll probably still pay the $20 (for mario kart 8 and splatoon 2), but I'm very disappointed in Nintendo.
