| [https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/63227/~/announcement-of-discontinuation-of-online-services-for-nintendo-3ds-and-wii-u Read the official announcement] on Nintendo Support.

|
| == Will homebrew let me continue to play online? ==
| | Yo, im botman. im 16 and i go by he/him |
| The official servers will be going down permanently for everyone, homebrew will not grant you access to them. Instead, an alternate network, [https://pretendo.network Pretendo Network], is in development.
| |
|
| |
|
| == Can I use alternate networks without hacking? ==
| | [https://botman.carrd.co/| My cardd] <— ykw just go read that |
| No, homebrew is required to play on alternate networks.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Will the alternate network work on Tiramisu?== | | ==current projects:== |
| No, Pretendo has ended support for Tiramisu. You will need to use the Aroma environment to install it.
| | Theoretical (maybe applied) digital basehaxx singlesystem |
|
| |
|
| == Can I still set up homebrew after the shutdown? ==
| | ([[User:Botman/3ds Assistance Regular Guide|3ds Assistance Regular Guide]]) |
| Yes, but certain exploits that depend on online services may not be available, such as Seedminer, which requires use of the Friend List.
| |
|
| |
|
| == What happens to the eShop? == | | ==consoles that i plan to do/have done aleady== |
| Nintendo eShop is likely to stay available for downloading game updates and past purchases for a long time. Similarly, the Wii Shop Channel and DSi Shop are still online to download purchases many years later.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Will I still be able to update?==
| | Wii (done) |
| Just like the eshop, update servers are most likely going to be still accessible after the shutdown. consoles like the wii are still able to be updated. It is still recommended to update if CFW is installed on the console.
| |
| == What about Pokémon Bank? ==
| |
| Pokémon Bank and Poké Transporter will still work after the shutdown, but it is recommended to transfer to Pokémon HOME as early as possible, as it may not stay available for long<ref>https://twitter.com/playpokemon/status/1709614360904004012 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20231005083547/https://twitter.com/playpokemon/status/1709614360904004012 archive])</ref>.
