As tributes flood in for the 3DS and Wii U servers, some tireless Nintendo survivors stay connected and refuse to let their beloved online modes die
11.04.2024 - 19:03 / gamesradar.com / Catherine Lewis / Nintendo
Earlier this week, the servers supporting online services for all 3DS and Wii U games met their end. Although it's a sad time for anyone who has a place in their heart for the games affected, the community efforts that have followed since are so wholesome that it almost makes the whole thing worth it. Tributes have been flooding in to honor the fallen online modes, and a dedicated subsection of fans are somehow still holding on as the last survivors of the official servers.
As you'd expect, countless nostalgic players flooded the online modes of their favorite games on the final day, making their last Pokemon trades, fighting their last battles in Super Smash Bros. 4, and visiting their friends' 3DS Animal Crossing towns while they still could. Social media posts of these goodbyes flooded the internet, and since then, we've also seen a flurry of fan art based on the experience.
One particular Super Smash Bros. for 3DS clip depicting two random Kirby players clinging to each other in their final match has been one of the most adorable sources of inspiration. Those orange and blue Kirbies, dubbed as the Kirbies "at the end of it all," have been drawn holding each others' blobby hands as the world behind them phases out of existence, and best of all, the original post became so popular that the other player eventually saw it, causing a very wholesome reunion in the replies.
Wait that's me ! Ohhhh so It Was You !

As Helldivers 2 fans call for bug fixes over new content, director apologizes "for the sloppy mistakes we've made as of recent" and knows "we can do better as a studio"
Helldivers 2's popularity is still sky-high, but more and more demands have been flooding in lately for developer Arrowhead to put a greater focus on squashing bugs rather than adding new content, something which the devs have pointed out isn't exactly straightforward. It's rather ironic, really, given the game's massive focus on killing democracy-hating bugs.
