Nintendo is one of those companies that seems to have been around forever. One of the downsides to that is eventually products become obsolete, and it ceases supporting them, such as when it ended repairs for the 3DS and 3DS XL earlier this year. Sadly, it looks as though another aspect of the Japanese company will be going as well.
According to a post on Reddit, Nintendo may be shutting down its support forums for good. The service has been going for more than a decade and while the company has yet to make an official announcement, there have allegedly been some emails that have been sent to “top members” regarding some upcoming news, which could be related.
The post itself contains a lengthy email message to one user which talks about the decision to shut down the forums offering the user a free download as a “thank-you.” The message goes on to say the reason for the decision is due to there being many other ways for players to “easily contact Nintendo.” Reddit is no stranger to Nintendo, so it’s difficult to know what to make of this post.
Time will tell whether it turns out to be true, but the Japanese giant tends to shine when it comes to online support for Nintendo products. At this stage, all people can do is wait to hear the official word, and if the forums do go down, fans will have to seek out other ways to get help in the future or find a new place to hang out with their Nintendo family.
