Nintendo Network

Nintendo Network was an online gameplay networking service run by Nintendo for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U systems. It was launched in 2012, as a successor to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service. Unlike Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, which was more decentralized and focused on functions within certain games, Nintendo Network took the centralized approach by giving users their own user account that allows them to access the social networking service, Miiverse, and a digital storefront, the Nintendo eShop, both of which have since been discontinued.
Nintendo Network received its own successor for the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Online, which consumers have to pay to use, unlike both Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and Nintendo Network. Nintendo Network had been discontinued on April 8, 2024.
