No, not the 3DS or the Wii U, just the Wii and DS.

Well today is the day that the Wii and the original DS go offline.

No more online gaming for either system. Just a reminder for those that still use them online.

Cool story ! He was right to connect for the last hours of online gaming ... and Tatsunoko VS Capcom is a great game ! I've tried this one on a friend's house and that was great :)
