Nintendo announced today that as of 10:00 pm PST on November 7th, the Miiverse service will be discontinued.<\/p>\n

At that time gamers will no longer be able to access Miiverse from the Wii U console, Nintendo 3DS, or from an internet browser on PCs or smart devices. All Miiverse services will become unavailable, such as viewing or making posts, and messaging with friends.<\/p>\n

For a limited time, however, you\u2019ll be able to request a download of all the posts you’ve made up to the day of the closure.<\/p>\n

To find out more about this service or to make a download request, click on the \u201cInformation on Downloading your Post History\u201d button at the top of the Miiverse website. Please note: to use this download service, you will need to have a Nintendo Account linked with your Nintendo Network ID, and must make the download request before the Miiverse service ends.<\/p>\n

\ufffc\ufffcThe end of the service was expected considering that the Nintendo Switch does not use the social media platform. But while that is true it’s a shame that Nintendo is abandoning the platform<\/p>\n

I for one used Miiverse as a way to take screen shots from my game to share not only on Miiverse but also on other social media.<\/p>\n

Recent games do allow the ability to take screen captures which can be shared via the mobile browser but this functionality is clunky as compared to Miiverse.<\/p>\n

I, for one, am saddened by the announcement.<\/p>\n
