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

There really should be a law requiring companies which provide online services to be required to release self-hosted server software once they discontinue the provision of the service.

Why though? Why not just acknowledge that these services are ephemeral?
