Yeah but it's not like the backlog of games on the system are gonna be going any time soon
Unless you track down the physical copies, and download the Updates, DLC, and what ever else...
that backlog shrinks considerably.
Some games won't even play if they aren't up to date with DLC, patches etc...
The way Nintendo has been handling their online services after each new system is pretty disgraceful, but
the truth is that the precedent set proves that Nintendo Will shut down the store sooner than you may think.
