Although this isn't music operations news related, this does apply to those of you who have been doing online activity stuff via your respective WiiU and/or Nintendo 3DS console (which our music operations covers in terms of doing Super Nintendo music style arrangements of songs for games targeting these two systems).
It was announced by Nintendo as a whole last night that come during the course of March 2023, the "Nintendo eShop" functionality/navigation for those two systems are being planned to be phased out/discontinued. This is a major clue in concluding that "major online activity" as a whole regarding these two consoles will be phased out as well. So it's highly recommended that if you still are planning to do any purchases within these two aforementioned eShop portals, make sure to take care of it in a timely fashion before the March 2023 deadline.
There are other deadlines that you must know about which are also in relation to other functionalities involving both eShop portals which are being phased out; you're able to read more about that by going to this page on Nintendo of America's support site. Take care for now, everyone.
