Yesterday, 8th April, saw the end of an era. Nintendo closed down the online services for its 3DS and Wii U consoles.
As the time drew nearer to this closure, many Nintendo fans took to social media to share their last online moments in games such as Mario Kart 7, Splatoon, Animal Crossing: New Leaf and more. This includes several clips showing the exact moment the servers closed down for good.
Prolific Nintendo dataminer OatmealDome was streaming Splatoon on the Wii U when the servers shut down. As with many others online at the time, they were met with an error code and a message that read: “This online service is no longer available.”
