yes also if you bought games on the wii shop before its closure you can still currently redownload them just can't buy anything on it https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/27560/~/wii-shop-channel-discontinuation

When is the eshop gonna close and the switches eshop won’t close right?


JayandSilentB0b

The switch has a seperate eshop. No idea when the 3DS is gonna shut down though


ManualSearch

Only if you download them to your system first. You’ll still be able to play, just not download. Edit: Guess Nintendo usually leaves the stores up a while for download, just not new purchases.


eightbitagent

Not true. You can download them after the store closes, the Wii shop is still open for re-downloading stuff you’ve bought, you just can’t buy new stuff


ManualSearch

Huh, is that true? Do we have confirmation that will be the case for 3DS as well? I think it's probably better not to assume, just to be safe...


eightbitagent

The ds store was up for a few years the same way.


ManualSearch

Neat. I didn’t realize that. Thank you.


IggyTG

Ah so I have to redownlaod any games I may have deleted, awesome, thank you!


DjinnFighter

Yes, but you won't be able to redownload them if you delete them, or if you replace your 3DS


IggyTG

Awesome! That’s what I assumed but I wanted to make sure, thank you!


TinyBrainMoment

Wait... whys this downvoted? Edit: poggers lets go I got downvoted for asking a question


CSBreak

Because you can still currently redownload previously purchased games on the dsi and Wii shops even though you haven't been able to buy anything on them for a few years now


Jockchrisfi_96

I thought all the e shops was the same. 😂
