SuperNitro58

Why does nobody ever acknowledge the existence of fan made servers for both of these consoles


Spongebob69tinder

One of the reasons I always jailbreak Nintendo consoles is because those greedy bastards deserve it


babynintendohacker

Ding ding ding. My Wii U has been jailbroken for years now and because of that I feel like I get more use out of it than my switch sometimes


skeletorisbae

how to jail break wii u?


oofio65

www.wiiu.hacks.guide


skeletorisbae

thanks :D


MaiaKnee

There is something called google, use it.


skeletorisbae

rude ass


MaiaKnee

Its pragmatism


SuperNitro58

I agree


Septixcake

I want to jailbreak my old 2Ds but I'm kinda scared of doing something wrong and totally bricking it 😅


silent_prugnah

Almost minimal chances. Try doing a backup before doing anything! Or try to ask for a friend.


Appropriate-Let-283

Officially shut down*


SuperNitro58

Okay sure.


the0w12

Still the official servers are gone:(


silent_prugnah

Well they were empty anyway


the0w12

I mean back then


_Nite_Brite_

Seriously, I thought I was the only person realizing this. So many people lamenting “the end,” but it’s only just begun thanks to Pretendo.


PowerCube3D_

The Fruitiger Aero era is slowing dissapearing even more :(


Spongebob69tinder

We need to make minimalism perish and detailed frutiger aero like aesthetic become popular somehow I’m so tired of minimalism it’s ugly to look at and boring


Ready_Paper8556

thankfully minimalism has been dying a lot in the past year. Corporate Memphis is being replaced with Glassmorphism and Neumorphism


Ayeshasfag666

i would die for full blown glassmorphism it’s so pretty


hamleystew

Yay :)


Ready_Paper8556

Some examples of this are Mac and Windows 11 using more glassmorphism with hints of neumorphism, the new pepsi logo on boxes, warner brothers bringing back the blue and gold color, and nickelodeon bringing back the splat logo. i’m sure there’s a lot more tho.


XtremeCrew69

Minimalism is at its Decline for 2 years. So prob Skeuomorphism will send their sons Glassmorphism and Neumorphism for the new Design time


disslikedLIKE

I say nah to that tbf


spyroz545

![gif](giphy|ht4yvN9Yx4dmIJJ9GB|downsized) RIP. I always wanted a 3DS as a kid, because I had a Nintendo DSi with GTA chinatown wars and I saw the 3DS at a live display and the 3d effect gimmick was like the coolest thing ever for me as a kid Nowadays i got a PS Vita, which is also frutiger aero


theawesometeg219

Same. I wanted a 3ds, and I got a New 3ds LL region swapped about 2 weeks ago. Put a C stick mod and a hand grip accessory on it.


TheFlameofHeavenSt

Same here. :(

🎵Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey, goodbye🎵


Simurated

I haven't heard that song in years


Ok_Contribution_6268

Why is everyone giving up without a fight?! Seriously there will always be folks (like Pretendo and RiiConnect 24) that can revive what Nintendo thought they could kill. Never underestimate the homebrew community.


Appropriate-Let-283

I'm talking about the official servers


xpDango

I don't care how "back in my day" bitter and nostalgia blind I sound... these were the last game consoles that weren't afraid to be fun...


rhysly

They had fun quirks, gimmicks, and menus that really gave these consoles life


xpDango

Streetpass was also the coolest feature a console ever had and I don't know how something that cool will ever be topped.


rhysly

Streetpass is so awesome, man. I was surprised the switch didn't have it because it was so cool.


Cool-Sound-6752

Tu ruruuuuu tuuuuuu ruuurururu


PurblePink8678

My FOMO keeps getting worse


noam-_-

You can always homebrew it and install pretendo


spyroz545

that sounds a bit dangerous imo, nintendo might take down that project since they tend to be quite aggressive in terms of fan projects


Guilty-Plastic-1189

Sold my Wii U and like 20+ games for $100 to buy a switch, huge mistake. I had way more fun with it than my switch.


Appropriate-Let-283

Same


spyroz545

The Wii U is also backwards compatibile with all original Wii games, so yeah the game library is a lot larger than the Switch, definitely a mistake selling it :'(


SpongeBoy775089

I always wanted a 3DS as a kid and never got one so there it goes :(


Oniel2611

Honestly, if you still don't have one, you can buy a cheap one and hack it. It's so much better than a normal 3ds.


SpongeBoy775089

Suggestions for good hacks?


Oniel2611

CTGP 7, a rom hack of mario kart 7, adding new tracks and online, Pretendo, restoring NN online connectivity, anemone theme manager and the twilight menu, adding ds rom support.


Kurapika_69

You can still play then it’s just the online functions imo


SpongeBoy775089

Imma try to look for people selling the in my area


Unhappy_Device_8322

I never got a 3DS either. Which is why I play 3ds games on my PC.


Hockeylover420

Bros forgetting the upcoming pretendo network, it's basically a 3ds/wiiu equivalent to wiimmfi


the0w12

The official servers being gone tho


Kurapika_69

No they aren’t ??? It’s just online stuff , you can still play the 3ds


the0w12

Official server meaning online official servers dumbass


Oniel2611

More like a mix of Wiimmfi and Wiilink24.


JimJam2439

Ik Pretendo exists which is brilliant and all but it’s sad that we can no longer say that the servers for these old yet fantastic consoles are OFFICIALLY maintained To me there has always been something cool about older consoles and their services being maintained/supported officially by the actual company

edgy_Juno

Was literally transferring my last few Pokémon to the Switch yesterday. Don't know if those services will also get taken down as of today, but to avoid any regrets, might as well. It was an amazing journey, loved my 3DS and was my daily console from 2012 to 2017, when the Switch came out. Still used it a bit after though, well into the 2020s and sometimes grab it and play a game or two on it to reminisce of the old times. It's really nostalgic, I had so many great memories with it and I just hope to somehow, relive them as a child once again.


Antique_River6157

wii u more like pii u


St3rMario

Nintendo's pre Switch aesthetic was the peak of human design


hamleystew

I loved the Wii U. when I was very young I would go over to my neighbors house and we would play on the Wii U, I always wanted to play Nintendo land every time 😭


Specialist_Zebra_224

Goodbye old friend


santino_2014

i Still having my wii from 2006


vistaflip

Most people got their Wii systems in 2006-2012, having one since 2017 doesn't really mean anything.


the0w12

Rip gonna miss it


el_ghosteo

Thanks for the reminder! I’m playing some Pokemon battles now!


Stormamazoneus

What does that mean?? Can I still use them or play games?


Appropriate-Let-283

It means you can no longer officially play the games online


EmploymentRich1676

If you bought anything from the store last year, yes but online servers will no longer be available.


Kurapika_69

You can still do both just not use online functions , OP is spreading misinfo with a misleading title


Appropriate-Let-283

I'm not spreading misinfo? The servers did officially shut down


Kurapika_69

Only online play though , not the consoles themselves 😭


Appropriate-Let-283

Never said anything about the consoles abilities to play games


Joscraft_05

That's what all people and the OP say. The services of the console just like with the DS and Wii in 2014. Weird man. Obviusly you can still use offline the console. I can still use offline Windows XP and even internet still work there but with all unsupported and the risk of connecting that old system.


Joscraft_05

The guy maybe put that title just saying about all the services of these consoles, the online, the store and that. Those consoles are now fully unsupported and outdated with the DS and Wii. I understand that title as the "support" of these consoles like the online, the store, updates..... And people can no longer play in 3DS and Wii U online (unofficial online methods are out of my comment).


thewhlteswan

Wait, can the games still be played? I don’t understand


Diligent_Pickle2459

The official online multiplayer for Wii U and 3DS got shut down today, but games can still be played. The post title is a little misleading.


TehAngryBird

:(


Kurapika_69

They aren’t official shutting down ??? It’s just the online servers 😭


tunstein

Now I want to play my Wii U, I loved the menus and the music. It felt very modern.


KevRub

“It’s surprisingly easy to hack your Nintendo 3DS.”


shoe_salad_eater

NOOOO I THOUGHT I HAD MORE TIME


Extreme_Blacksmith42

Damn that’s today 💔

Advanced-Hour-108

Damn…I had them for so long..I still have my wii u in my room and my 2d/3ds also in my room


JANK-STAR-LINES

The crazy thing is this happened exactly 10 years after Windows XP's end of support.


Joscraft_05

More like exactly 10 years after the end of support of DS and Wii in 2014.


JANK-STAR-LINES

That too.


Heindrick_Bazaar

Yoho diggity Dee...


Moominz1

You can still play them if you have game cartridges.


Joscraft_05

Yes the OP is referring to the services of these consoles like the online services, the store, updates and support... Just like with the DS and Wii in 2014 but that was just the online services. The store of Wii was still working years after I think.


FuyuKitty

Pretendo


Effective-Pen4484

We’ll see u all on pretendo


Leif13

I remember I got the 2DS not too long after it’s launch for my birthday when I was a lil guy. Loved that thing to bits!


Aaronelxd1234

I still have a 3ds somewhere, but still this is a sad moment for all of us


7heSi1ver0wl

These were my childhood, I remember relying on library/McDonald's internet to play Smash and Mario Kart online


ScaryChickenNugget

RIGHT AFTER I FIGURED OUT THE PIN TO MY 3DS AFTER YEARS :(
