      Yup I sometimes go there just to see what was there for the virtual console and just to hear the music in general as it quite soothing (and it really sucks that the switch had nothing but silence for its e shop unlike the Wii’s shop channel and Wii-U’s as well as the 3DS for sure and I have no idea why Nintendo got rid of it) but I’m sure there’s high quality loops of the track here on YT, Spotify and SoundCloud

      I personally think it was really good. But with DLC and eshop exclusives going away soon. It just puts less value on it now. Because if you didn't experience it fully while it was relevant and you weren't there at the right moment at the right time, It is an era that is completely broken. I can already see prices skyrocketing soon. Especially the Wii U. Just to experience the era the way it was originally intended to be experienced. Minus flipping through the eshops and all that. You will have to rely on the nostalgia videos and all that.
      It is just a broken era to me. I just feel bad for any of the kids growing up now who might want to experience what the Wii U and 3DS era was all about some day. Because alot of this stuff will cease to even exist soon.
      I mean, the N64 era is expensive era currently, as well as the gamecube. But at least all that content still exists somewhere. Most of the DLC and eshops stuff will refuse to exist anywhere period after the closure.

At least for me, every time I load it up, I have to type in my account name a pass, just to get to the Wii U menu. If the eshop is going down as well as all of it's servers, won't that mean that the servers I am logging into just to boot up the Wii U will cease to exist and work as well? I dunno.

    Although August is the final date you can add funds, if you use the same Nintendo network Id on the switch then the funds are merged so you added switch funds are usable on the Wii-U.

    I understand why the Wii U shop is closing but I feel that many people still use their 3DS. I have one and I do use it occasionally. It would be sad to lose a huge part of the console. It's small, i can throw it in my bag and use it during a short road trip.

    On the Nintendo eShop at 2:56, I noticed that one of the games that is listed in that particular games list is "Dying is Dangerous" which I even have already on my Wii U console and that one-star rating for the game at the time was actually from me too since I was actually the one who first rated that particular game. I even gave it 5 stars myself since I just thought that it seemed really neat and all in my opinion since I personally like the game which isn't too bad.

    The problem is, they only care about their newest consoles. The music makes you happy and, well you want to shop! But on the switch... SILENT ‘MODERN’ SERIOUS SMOOTH NO HAPPINESS JUST WE NEED MONEY.. They just want money. Come on, the wii u was a really good console, not in profit but like beauty. If they made a portable, home console, both at same time, fun, musical, and lovely. Called the Wii 3.
