Nintendo Is Shutting Down The Wii U & 3DS eShop
By Alleef Ashaari|February 16, 2022|1 Comment
Nintendo is planning to discontinue the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. According to the official website, it will no longer be possible to make purchases in Nintendo eShop for the Wii U system and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems as of late March 2023. It will also no longer be possible to download free content, including game demos.
In addition, as we get closer to March 2023, the following services will shut down as well:
The changes to Nintendo eShop on Wii U and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems will simultaneously take effect in software on these platforms where it is possible to make purchases, such as StreetPass Mii Plaza, Theme Shop and Nintendo Badge Arcade.
However, it’s important to note that even after late March 2023, it will still be possible for users to redownload games and DLC, receive software updates and enjoy online play on Wii U and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. It’s just that you won’t really be able to do anything else, including purchasing games.
Why is this happening? Nintendo says that “this is part of the natural lifecycle for any product line as it becomes less used by consumers over time.” The Nintendo Wii U was originally released in late 2012, while the Nintendo 3DS initially came out in 2011. It’s been at least a decade or so for both of these consoles.
