In early April 2024, online play and other functionality that uses online communication will end for Nintendo 3DS* and Wii U software. This also includes online co-operative play, internet rankings, and data distribution.

We will announce a specific end date and time at a later date.

Please note that if an event occurs that would make it difficult to continue online services for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U software, we may have to discontinue services earlier than planned.

This includes software exclusive to New Nintendo 3DS

And it's incentivized by the people buying into it. If people collectively woke up and started asking questions, this wouldn't be an issue.

Instead, we buy into them and then try to force them to open up through legislation.

Imagine if cars were really unsafe. Would you say, “we shouldn’t legislate car safety, we should all just wake up and start buying safer cars!”

Okay, you've got a point there.

When was the last time Mario Maker killed a man?

Imagine if cars were really unsafe.

This requires no imagination, but the analogy falls apart when you realize the only way to make them safer is to use them less.

To be fair, cars having safety measures now are the reason why poor people can't afford them anymore though.

You can buy a brand new Dacia Sandero for 12000€, hardly expensive for a car.
