Goodbye, eShop... T-T by Heroine-of-Winds

I can't believe Nintendo is closing every eShop except the Switch one. Don't they realize they'd just get more money if they kept them open? I mean, honestly... Don't even get me started on this, or I'll be ranting about it for hours on end T-T
Rest in peace, beloved eShop...

#eshop #mario #link #whyisnintendostupidthesedays

We have 2 weeks.... They close on the 27th. Buy while you can.

HWAAAAAH!!!!!

@Wind_Waker Uh, I'm going to assume that was a sad noise
'Cause I've been sad 'bout this ever since I found out :'/

Regarding your description above, they're doing this because they can make more money. By vaulting the games on the wiiu/3ds e-shop, they can make you pay for them on Switch. For example, I don't own Majoras Mask, but I want too, I can buy it for 30 on the eshop, OR i can rent it with NSO expansion pack, I have to keep paying them in order to play, instead of just owning it. and they can re-launch games on Switch for more expensive, because there will be nowhere else to get that game.

-Switched CEOs, I guess that's why they're so selfish now

Wind_Waker

14 Mar, 2023, 2:31 am

And yus, that is a mixture of sadness, and burning ANGER

Heroine-of-Winds

14 Mar, 2023, 2:33 am

@Wind_Waker Well, yeah, but what about the games they haven't ported to the Switch yet? Wind Waker for example (the very game I'd been dying to play for 4 years)
Nintendo just isn't what it used to be :'(

Wind_Waker

14 Mar, 2023, 2:36 am

HUUUUU, YOU HAVN'T PLAYED IT YET?!?!
They now have the opportunity to do that, and make it more expensive. It's about options, if they ever want to do something, they now can, they might not, but now they have more freedom to jack prices up

...Or have you..? did I misread?

I like your hashtag btw

@Wind_Waker Hnnnnnng, sometimes I don't like nintendo :/

oh yes, I got WW for my b-day last year!! That night shortly after i opened it, when i was in my room i was literally jumping up and down screaming silently in happiness :) That was the best day i've had :)

ANYWHOOOO
Oh, thank you! Glad you like my hashtag xD

Wind_Waker

14 Mar, 2023, 2:58 am

Oke,
Oh and btw, do you still have Triforce Heros? I want to get it, but i hear it's harsh if you don't have a real team. Ik Hailsss has it, but I need a 3rd person.

Heroine-of-Winds

14 Mar, 2023, 3:06 am

@Wind_Waker Yes i still have it! I don't play that much though :o And it is more fun with multiplayer imo :)

Heroine-of-Winds

14 Mar, 2023, 3:06 am

@Wind_Waker I'd get it if i was you. But it's up to you though :)

Wind_Waker

14 Mar, 2023, 3:09 am

I might, maybe, possibly get it. Maybe.

Heroine-of-Winds

14 Mar, 2023, 3:10 am

@Wind_Waker It will make you laugh. Plus the Woodlands theme is awesome B)

I would like to have a moment of silence for the Nintendo eShop...

Heroine-of-Winds

14 Mar, 2023, 3:47 am

@WeekendKid49 pfffff XDDD That made me laugh.
It's true though... *stands for 1 minute in silence*

I assume they do it so they can resell them on switch, and since the games will be unpurchasable, The 3ds userbase will start to wane and it wont be as controversial when they inevitably shutdown the servers... I agree with you, it sucks :(

Palmtree

14 Mar, 2023, 4:29 pm

physical yis better to buy.

scenario (sorry if i spelt wrong):

you buy a game that is on digital but then you drop your switch or other ways that it can break.you kinda wasted your money.

if you buy physical,your swich breaks,you buy a new one and you can play that game!

Palmtree

14 Mar, 2023, 4:29 pm

*is*

Heroine-of-Winds

14 Mar, 2023, 9:02 pm

@SaltineCracker But think about ALL of those games they HAVEN'T ported to the Switch and probably never will! Ugh I hate nintendo sometimes!

Heroine-of-Winds

14 Mar, 2023, 9:02 pm

@-Howl- The only eshop that's NOT closing is the Switch one ;_;

Heroine-of-Winds

14 Mar, 2023, 9:16 pm

@-Howl- I would explain but we'd be here for hours.
So, this will have to suffice:
Money and new, inexperienced people. Money and new people is the short answer. They have people working there who apparently don't give a korok seed about the company. What's really stupid is, do they think everyone is just going to throw away their other consoles besides the Switch?
Ok, I'm going to have to stop there, or else I'll be ranting awhile.

Heroine-of-Winds

15 Mar, 2023, 12:31 am

@-Howl- Hey sorry I'm just now getting back to you! >:o
Uh.. I got inducted in the national junior honors society this evening...! I was so nervous o-o

@-Howl- The NJHS is a thing for students who have all A's. Idk what all I'm going to get to do though *shrug*

Heroine-of-Winds

15 Mar, 2023, 1:51 am

@-Howl- Ty :)

SaltineCracker

15 Mar, 2023, 4:45 pm

@_SVP3RST4R_ You may be right, but ports aren't usually seen as major titles so I think its possible. Also, if I remember correctly the last few games made for 3ds were ports I believe (Kirbys extra epic yarn, Mario & Luigi, etc) But they could port them on the new console aswell.

SaltineCracker

15 Mar, 2023, 4:47 pm

@Heroine-of-Winds Yeah, a lot of games are guaranteed to be lost because of it, but what can you do? On the topic of games that probably wont be ported, I highly recommend Ever Oasis, its really fun :o

Heroine-of-Winds

15 Mar, 2023, 9:14 pm

@SaltineCracker Ooh, I forgot about that one! :o Ty for reminding me, 'cause I'd been wondering about it!

My Mum just buys me them as a cartridge boxed!

Heroine-of-Winds

17 Mar, 2023, 11:47 pm

@hannahwallbank Yes, that's a good idea too! But sadly, some games are digital only :(

Kit-Chu

21 Mar, 2023, 1:24 am

:/ this also means the network for the 3DS will be shut down in a few years closing the e-shop is always the last thing they do before that happens

Heroine-of-Winds

21 Mar, 2023, 1:41 am

@Kay the pikachu Whoa, wait what? :o Hang on. By network, do you mean internet access, or what??? :O

Kit-Chu

21 Mar, 2023, 4:58 am

yes the internet access it happened with the DSi once they closed the e-shop the network was then was shut down a few years later it's what happens to old game systums and phoms as new ones come out

Heroine-of-Winds

21 Mar, 2023, 5:02 am

@Kay the pikachu
Ok Nintendo seriously needs to have an actual funeral for these consoles T-T

Kit-Chu

21 Mar, 2023, 6:23 am

i know it's sad but there is still time to enjoy the 3DS they didn't shut down the DSi network till two or five years after it's e-shop was closed however i can't say we'll have the same with the 3DS

Heroine-of-Winds

21 Mar, 2023, 10:11 am

@Kay the pikachu
Yeah... :(
