Is the OP going to update the thread title that the removal was temporary and that the game is back on the Wii U eShop already?

In the browser-based US eShop there is still no "buy digital" button for that game. Are you sure it is back on the Wii U eShop in the US region?

I'm at work, so I can't check my Wii U to personally verify.  I was going by what I was seeing others reporting online.

It was gone yesterday, it has since been put back up this morning. I've already informed RMC. It's back up on the US eShop as well. Maybe they made a mistake or maybe they figured the bad publicity wasn't worth it ahead of the Switch version's release.
