This news hit me right in the childhood
I remember I was so excited when I first got my Wii, it's sad to see it finally recede into death
RIP in peace Wii :c
Freeze:
Sucks that those channels are going, at least virtual console is still here though. :D
Cookiez664:
That is handicapped. Cmon Nintendo!

In comparison to Xbox where it was supported till 2007 after the Xbox360 was released, this is a pretty damn short time to cut the plug on a console's internet services, but why would they support a pretty much dead console since there is a new one out already? The Wii U has a perfect Wii emulator. All the Wii U is missing is the GameCube controller ports, but i bet that the GameCube controllers can be replaced with the Pro controller or the classic one. I sure hope EA doesn't cut the multiplayer mode from BF3 any time soon when BF4 comes out.

You should post stuff like this to the Nintendo Megathread.

I didn't think Nintendo was so quick to abandon their outdated consoles. Fortunately I don't think many people still use those channels, they were more gimmicks that you use for the first week after bringing home your Wii than anything.
