Christmas eShop Shut Down

Ok. Hey this is Gaming Universe. So I got  a limited edition red Pokemon XY Nintendo 3DS XL for Christmas yesterday, right? So I also got  Pokemon X and Y (yes, both of them) and so then I was playing Y and then I kept bugging me that there was an update for X and Y. So then I was like fine and I tapped update software and it went to the eShop. Then it said sorry because an error occurred. So then I kept trying it again and again and again and again biut still error, error, error. When I first got the 3DS XL I connect my internet and wi-fi and all that and typed in the password and everything. I even linked my Club Nintendo account to the eShop. So I gave up. Then, I went to support.nintendo.com and here's what I found.




Dang it!!! All the services for all Wii U, 3DS, Wii, and DS are havin' probs! Ugh! But I pretty sure I know why. They shut down Miiverse and the eShop and StreetPass and all that because since kids probably got Wii Us and 3DSes and Wii minis and DSis and all that and kids are probably trying to do all this and the Nintendo can't take all this stuff from downloads and stuff so they just shut it down. And one of my relatives pointed out that there were a bunch of tweets and articles about it too that people were mad and some people got gift cards and couldn't do them.

Wii to be replaced! Now it's gonna be really mini sales!

The system we all knew from 2006 that we all now is going to be replaced! Guess which one it is? WII! How could Nintendo do that! We've only known Wii for about 7 years! That's all! Now they're gonna discontinue it! So if you have a Wii (white or black, it doesn't matter for this one,) wait before you sell it. In 2016, the Wii will be 10 years old. So then everyone is gonna think it's all cool and old school and rad and wicked and oh yeah Wii and all that stuff. I have a Wii Model One (in other words, white,) and a Nintendo DSi presently but probably getting a Nintendo 3DS soon. And I'm gonna save my Wii and Nintendo DSi. Let me tell ya. My friends in 2016 are gonna be like, "Can I have your Wii? Can I have your DSi?" And you know what I'm gonna say? "Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Aaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnndddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd......NOPE!" Yeah datz what I say! Let Wii mini take its part. It's gonna be a big ka-flooey fail anyway. I mean, If the Wii U is out ($249.99-$299.99 *MSRP) and the Wii mini is out ($99.99 *MSRP) even though it is a hundred fifty to two hundred dollars less, most everyone wants a Wii U! Not a Wii mini! If you could have one what would you choose? If you have an answer that you just thought in your mind then vote in the pool an the side of this site. Bottom Line:

Masahiro Sakurai (1970 - )

Masahiro Sakurai is a 43 year Japanese Nintendo and Sora worker that created Kirby, Super Smash Bros., Kid Icarus: Uprising, and is co-creator of Meteos. He also voiced King Dedede in Super Smash Bros. Brawl (2008) and here is a list of QUITE A FEW of the games he has worked on:

Kirby's Dream Land (Nintendo Game Boy, 1992)
Kirby's Adventure (Nintendo Entertainment System aka NES, 1993)
Kirby Super Star (Super Nintendo Entertainment System aka Super NES aka SNES, 1996)
Super Smash Bros. (Nintendo 64 aka N64, 1999)
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards aka Kirby 64 (Nintendo 64 aka N64, 2000)
Super Smash Bros. Melee (Nintendo GameCube aka GameCube, 2001)
Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land (Nintendo Game Boy Advance aka GBA, 2002)
Kirby Air Ride (Nintendo GameCube aka GameCube, 2003)
Kirby & the Amazing Mirror (Nintendo Game Boy Advance aka GBA, 2004)
Meteos (Nintendo DS aka DS, 2005)
Mushiking: King of the Beetles (Arcade Machine, 2003)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii, 2008)
Kid Icarus: Uprising (Nintendo 3DS aka 3DS, 2012)
Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition (Wii, 1992-2012)
Super Smash Bros. 4 aka SSB4 (Nintendo 3DS aka 3DS/Wii U, 2014)
Kirby Triple Deluxe (Nintendo 3DS aka 3DS, 2014)

Later, Masahiro Sakurai gave the rights to Kirby to Shinya Kumazaki for example, Kumazaki made a remake of Sakurai's game, Kirby Super Star, and made Kirby Super Star Ultra. Another example, he made a collector's collection of six of Sakurai's games, and made them into Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition for Wii (1). However, Sakurai STILL has the rights so Kirby, and if he wants, he can still make new Kirby games if he wants. So now Sakurai is the co-owner of Kirby.

Wii was also wiped out along with Nintendo DSi and Nintendo DSi XL for better sales on the Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo 3DS XL, and Nintendo 2DS (although Nintendo 3DS was still having good sales, Nintendo just wanted to raise them even more.
