Every online service shutdown ever? They keep the CDN up for a bit to placate people by promising existing purchases will still be downloadable, then they quietly kill it off later.
>Even after March 27, 2023, and for the foreseeable future, it will still be possible to redownload games and DLC, receive software updates and enjoy online play on Wii U and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.
I hope someday in the near future, esports retards stop asking for dedicated servers for games
Noy only do they get shut down eventually, that's where all mtx and progression systems are stored
Dedicated servers + matchmaking are the worst things to happen to games
I wish Vimm would start uploading WiiU and 3DS games already, there's like no good sites hosting them. Vita too, even though basically everything is on NPS it's not going to last forever.
>inb4 someone links some shitty french google doc with restricted downloads as a good source of 3DS and WiiU games
no
They are closing the purchases because of the ~~*fees*~~ that the banks and online transactions carry. Servers aren't that expensive compared to what ~~*they*~~ charge.
will this affect hacked consoles?
No, they'll leave the eshop up for those.
that does not affect me since I use Wii U USB Helper
The CDN will follow in a few years and then that won't work either.
Source?

that doesn't 3ds games though
Can you still play online after eshop is gone?
I'm taking about MH4U
It seems the servers will still keep running. Only the eshop is going down for now.
source proof ?

so sony wanted to do the same, or worse? not even allow to download your bought ps3 games ?
>B-BUT SNOY
why are they like this? legacy online services have historically always lasted far longer than nintendo's
I fucking fear buying Digital games if they do this shit. Doesn't help that physicals are expensive thanks to assholes who hoard.
YO HOOOOO!
THERE SHE BLOOOOWS!
they are closing 27 march of 2023, christian years of the lord.
>citra
Never buying digital again. But then I won't buy another dust colle- ehh.. another console either.
>August 2022
I don't use eshop. If you buy something off the eshop and forget to download before it goes offline, did you just get robbed?
