Happy to see more uploads from you! Man! Time flies so fast, it seems like yesterday I just got my 3DS and the games I got on the eShop, Pushmo, Sakura Samurai: Art of the Sword the main two that I got on the eShop this christmas. I'm grateful I got to experience the eShop when it was here!
I'm gonna miss this system so much, it was so aweome in it's prime. The games were great, the system menus haven't aged all that well in some aspects, especially the eShop, but there was so much personality and charm packed into every corner. The music is so fun to listen to, I literally have a "3ds OST" saved on my phone because of the nostalgia i have with it. Streetpass was so cool when people actually carried their consoles around. I only got my 3ds in 2019, so well past its prime but plenty of people in my area toted around their consoles at the time. The only thing I really missed out on was seeing new games releasing. The 3ds is an excellent time capsule of the 2010s and what made it so special for all of us, and I'm glad we all got to be a part of it and make it so fun. I'm never gonna forget the 3ds, moreover, i'll always remember how awesome the 2010s were as a whole. o7
12 years is a long time. Crazy how it felt like yesterday. Wow he was but a boy when it came out now hea grown. Aside from the eshop starting in 2011, also when MK9 came out so that year was also big for me too. They actually have the box boy games on The switch.
Bro I'm gonna miss this so much. I remember watching all of the Nintendo Directs on the eshop of WiiU games I really wanted when the WiiU was new and I was a lil child who couldn't get one. I was lucky the 3DS had that price drop so I could get my parents to get it. XD So many hours in Kid Icarus Uprising, Smash 3DS, Mario Kart 7, etc. Such a blast. I also remember watching you get the Switch with Etika. It's all so magical to me. It makes me a little emotional. I can't help it. This has been such a huge part of my life. It's just like with the Nintendo channel on the Wii with the Directs and how you could set it up to let you play demos on your DS. I just hate that all these services are shutting down and probably won't ever be able to be accessed again. I really appreciate people like you taking the time to just record this stuff. Yeah it's simple and easy and anyone could do it, but I'm so glad to be able to have a way to see this part of me growing up again.
RIP Etika. I remember watching them get the Switch too, great stuff, very hype lol. I was in and watched his whole last stream ever, then pensively waited for his next one because he said he would stream again soon and didn't, before finally finding out on June 19th what had happened...
Man, this was my first ever console that had any kind of 3d graphics, it was a huge jump from the GBA graphics 6 year old me was so used to back in 2012.
Good to see you're doing well again, especially after that car hit-and-run a while ago. I was concerned why you weren't covering the closure on the day of the 27th, and that's when I found out. Hoping you've made a full recovery, and definitely looking forward to content you make in the future, whatever that may be! RIP 3DS and Wii U eShops.
This is so cool. I miss those back in 2011, I got mine on my 10th birthday that year. This kinda makes me wanna cry. I own 4 of the 3DS family consoles now, it serves such wonderful memories of my childhood and teenage years. What nice times to look back on. For now, my cosmo black 3DS still works lol
I’m gonna miss the eShop. So many memories of listening to the music, looking at the menus, and the many great games from many different consoles to download.
I remember when the 3DS was coming out and sadly I was late the to party. Barely got the experience having my own 3DS at the time. It was a good journey though. Rest in peace eShop...
been watching you since the 3ds unboxing got on punishment for getting on my parents PC that week just to watch gameplay it was worth it. Can't believe I been watching you since middle school
I love to collect physical games so months before shut down I bought all the physical games and DLC's I wanted for my 3DS and 2DS and some digital exclusive games. No regrets since I never mod anyway. I love to have it around. Collecting always was so much fun to me^^
i remember watching your reaction video a decade ago featuring Jacob. crazy it’s been so long since the 3DS released. such an underrated console! it’s good to see you still uploading to this day, Alex! good shit 😎
The music on the 3DS eshop were lit and I can listen to it all day. RIP 3DS and Wii U eshop. Glad to have you back and that you doing alright. Keep up the success on your channel bro.
Thank you so much for documenting this. The WiiU and 3DS both mean so much to me, as they are the first consoles I ever had and it makes me cry to think that the eShop is finished. As a little last hurrah, I managed to buy Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers Of Sky. There will never be a point in my life where I won’t look back on these consoles and how I got into gaming at an early age, and it was with these consoles. I was only five when I got my 2DS and I was a baby when I started playing the WiiU. I can’t express how much those consoles meant to me. Weather it was playing Super Mario 3D World with my sister, or playing some Animal Crossing: New Leaf with my sister. That’s right. These games brought me and my sister closer. Though as we are getting older, we are slowly drifting apart more, and more. But these will always be good memories to have and treasure. It feels kinda sad that there is still games sitting on my wish list that I never had the chance to buy. Thank you guys for reading this message. It means a lot that you guys listened to all of this.
I remember watching your 3ds unboxing with your friend back then 😢 Just heard about the closing of the eshop and made me think of it so looked it up for the nostalgia. so sad that they decided to close the shops down :/
That's so weird, the music that I had on my 3ds eShop was the one you had on your Wii U. It was this one theme for the longest time, until one day it changed, it was completely different and way more energetic
As a former Nintendo 3Ds user I will say that I’m glad I get to experience the eshop. I remember those days I would scroll on the 3Ds, virtual, and demo games but mostly on the demos. I downloaded and played a lot of demos and also played full version nes games back then. Definitely one of my best childhood moments ever thank you so much Nintendo for the fun memories.
Fun fact: My 3DS is set to the current date yet for me, the E-Shop is still usable, not like i have a single shred of cash to spare on a 3ds game (I gave the 3DS away to my brother btw)
this feels like were coming to a close on the popularity and nostalgia for 90's games because 3ds had so many old school games and inspired by them that you could get legitimately
Man I remmeber the original ds being my first console and It got me into nintendo and when I eveuntly got my first 3ds it was amazing rip ds and 3ds and wii and wii u you were my childhood
Hes uploaded videos? His videos section is all messed up for me and just shows year old livestreams. Probably one of the reasons why he's not getting as much views.
Damn, I still remember when I got my 3DS back in 2011, as well as when I conected it to the internet for the first time (it was a big thing for a lot of people at the time ^^). This console (as well as the Wii U) had such a charming and cozy interface. Thank you 3DS for these wonderful moments. :') At least we can still play those games on emulator !
Your back! Also recently I went to New York, And of course I went to Nintendo NY. And I am here to report that your Mailboxes are a little vandalized, But still there
Your 3DS eshop music was definitely different to mine in its final years, right up until the last seconds. I wonder if the EU and US eshops used different soundtracks in their final updates.
Yeah it’s so sad both e shops are both closed now I’m very tempted to get a few physical 3ds games when I go to my local second hand shop as that is one of the few ways we can get 3ds games now, at least we can still order the physical games online - but it was just so convenient being able to download digital versions and demos whenever we wanted oh well 😐😐
I was eager to get a 3DS but my father confused Now the service closed soI can only play 3DS on Citra Emulator but luckily Citra emulator recently has a new function that can emulate Home menu
I still have my original 3ds and recently got a new xl and I found it interesting the music was different on both systems, not sure if that was a thing for other people or not
Aw man. I’m glad you made this video, Alex. I miss you dude! I hope you return to making videos and live-streaming soon. And I hope you’re doing well. 💙 The eShop closing is so sad, especially with so much still lacking by comparison on the Switch eShop (themes, cool ass music, videos, etc.)… ughhhhhhhhh
Anyone else just leave both eShops open in the final hours? The 3DS was my childhood and I have had one since Pokemon X and Y came out. It was painful to even use the 3DS as a lot of stuff has changed for me and my family since 2013. I'm glad I have finally bought all of those Streetpass minigames though.
The US eShop looked soo much more active and kept up to date 'til the end compared to the European one (at least here in Italy), the bgm had been the same for a whole year
I feel kinda sad because I wasn't born until 2012 and never knew what the eShop was. The last years I can remember knowing eShop was 2022-2023 and I never had Nintendo eShop credit so I couldn't buy anything. The eShop is still online and open, but you just can't download things anymore.
I remember the days where I would just scroll through the 3DS eshop, seeing what new demos there were that I could download
I’ll miss those days…
those demos hit way to hard I would replay that kirby robobot demo so much bruh
You can still get,them with mods😊
@@ChicagoMel23 Thinking about modding one day lol
RIP the 3DS Eshop 2011-2023. Wow thats crazy, 12 years of it being open. End of a era + childhood memories! ❤️
it was a good fuckin' time tbh
i hope something similar to the 3DS and WiiU era happens...
Rip my childhood for real
@@bdan i also hope but I doubt it. The reason Nintendo put so much effort in this era was because of their lack of Wii U sales
Adult memories for me
3ds was so cool and wii u was so good
The fact the same guy who did eshop video first day also did eshop video last day is truly amazing, just wow!

MK9? don't you mean MK7?
Mario Kart 9?
The eShop music has always been some of my favorite of the Nintendo soundtracks, Kazumi Totaka's work is so amazing. I'm glad you pointed it out!
Goodbye 3DS and Wii U... You two along with the Wii and DSi will forever be remembered as mine and many others childhoods
And adulthoods too

Hey man, the 3DS had a great run. 12 years...
I'm happy to have grown up watching you, and growing up with this cool ass system
Love the chaotic energy of this trip down memory lane.
Man, this was my first ever console that had any kind of 3d graphics, it was a huge jump from the GBA graphics 6 year old me was so used to back in 2012.

RIP 3DS and Wii U eShops.
4:33 the pain in his voice man, rip Wii U and 3DS eShop 😭
Welcome back man. Good to see ya again.
This is so cool. I miss those back in 2011, I got mine on my 10th birthday that year. This kinda makes me wanna cry.

Now the 3ds is truly dead.
R.I.P 3ds- 2011-2023
I grew up with this console, now it's sad seeing it dead now.
been watching you since the 3ds unboxing got on punishment for getting on my parents PC that week just to watch gameplay it was worth it. Can't believe I been watching you since middle school

So nostaglic, how do i go back??

It was just always fun to look on there, even if you weren't buying anything.
8:20 The switch does have touchscreen though
I love the Switch BUT the 3DS is my favorite system(s) of all time. RIP e-shop. 😭
I remember watching your 3ds unboxing with your friend back then 😢 Just heard about the closing of the eshop and made me think of it so looked it up for the nostalgia. so sad that they decided to close the shops down :/
I love watching your videos man! Please don’t stop uploading.
Its the final goodbyes that hurt the most
That's so weird, the music that I had on my 3ds eShop was the one you had on your Wii U. It was this one theme for the longest time, until one day it changed, it was completely different and way more energetic
dont worry: in europe, the eshop music is still here :)
Don’t worry man, there’s allways Hshop
Ye there we goooooo XD
Watching this one year later after nintendo network shutdown
As a former Nintendo 3Ds user I will say that I’m glad I get to experience the eshop. I remember those days I would scroll on the 3Ds, virtual, and demo games but mostly on the demos. I downloaded and played a lot of demos and also played full version nes games back then. Definitely one of my best childhood moments ever thank you so much Nintendo for the fun memories.

good thing i have Hshop installed on my modded 3DS
about 12 years with the eshop isn't a bad lifespan but Ik millions of people will miss it. Rip 2011-2023
Man I remmeber the original ds being my first console and It got me into nintendo and when I eveuntly got my first 3ds it was amazing rip ds and 3ds and wii and wii u you were my childhood
I miss the Eshop on 3ds already and I had used it so much since I got my first 3ds to watch the videos on it and get games
Your last few vids have been awesome man. Editing, pacing, etc. Well done! Im tuning in every time
Hes uploaded videos? His videos section is all messed up for me and just shows year old livestreams. Probably one of the reasons why he's not getting as much views.
brings back memories of my 3DS I had 4-6 years ago. Will be missed. Will also recommend Hshop on your 3DS if you still want to get the games.
I can’t believe that was 12 years ago. Fun fact we are as close to 2035 as we were to 2011.
Damn, I still remember when I got my 3DS back in 2011, as well as when I conected it to the internet for the first time (it was a big thing for a lot of people at the time ^^). This console (as well as the Wii U) had such a charming and cozy interface.
Thank you 3DS for these wonderful moments. :') At least we can still play those games on emulator !
I'm glad to see someone who I can relate to in some way. Long live the 3DS and Wii U!
A new CND video about the 3DS... takes me back!
Your back! Also recently I went to New York, And of course I went to Nintendo NY. And I am here to report that your Mailboxes are a little vandalized, But still there
This vid feels like one of your older ones, I love it
Man so many memories I remember getting the 3DS and the browser and e shop where not there yet.
The goat is back let’s gooooooooo it’s awesome seeing you back Alex 🔥
18:14 I see you have mario party guest. If we ever meet again I'll bring my copy with me
Rip Nintendo 3DS...Glory of God...good vídeo dude....
Its been 12 years and he still chooses to use the D-pad instead of the circle pad
The dpad is better for eshop
everyone should just mod their 3ds's and wii u's. Hshop and Nusspli really come in clutch.
Your 3DS eshop music was definitely different to mine in its final years, right up until the last seconds. I wonder if the EU and US eshops used different soundtracks in their final updates.
Now we use HShop
Wshop
I love your videos Alex!, I’m a big Nintendo fan myself, been watching you for several years now, keep up the fantastic work bro!
Yeah it’s so sad both e shops are both closed now I’m very tempted to get a few physical 3ds games when I go to my local second hand shop as that is one of the few ways we can get 3ds games now, at least we can still order the physical games online - but it was just so convenient being able to download digital versions and demos whenever we wanted oh well 😐😐
I was eager to get a 3DS but my father confused
Now the service closed soI can only play 3DS on Citra Emulator but luckily Citra emulator recently has a new function that can emulate Home menu
1:20 Why was the music from July 2014?!?!?!?!
This is why you don't wait until the literal last minute to buy something on a virtual shop that's closing forever...
The hshop:
Let me introduce myself
I still have my original 3ds and recently got a new xl and I found it interesting the music was different on both systems, not sure if that was a thing for other people or not
Sounds like the music that was on your Wii U was the music that was on my new xl lol
Now with the power of Homebrew, we can bring back the shop with hShop! None of these games are gone forever :D
But still, rip eShop :(
Aw man. I’m glad you made this video, Alex. I miss you dude! I hope you return to making videos and live-streaming soon. And I hope you’re doing well. 💙 The eShop closing is so sad, especially with so much still lacking by comparison on the Switch eShop (themes, cool ass music, videos, etc.)… ughhhhhhhhh
The 3ds and even Wii U eshop just had so much more personality than the switch one, and the switch one still BARELY runs 😭
Anyone else just leave both eShops open in the final hours? The 3DS was my childhood and I have had one since Pokemon X and Y came out. It was painful to even use the 3DS as a lot of stuff has changed for me and my family since 2013. I'm glad I have finally bought all of those Streetpass minigames though.
THE MAN HAS RETURNED
You got the old music, not the one for May 2019
Service close for the Nintendo 3DS then you can’t hear the music anymore. There’s a back rooms that gets the music. And the menu
I will miss the eShop on the 3DS and Wii U. RIP 8th June 2011 to 28th March 2023 (UK Time)
Honestly, I really hope next-gen Nintendo console will get system music like before
Man don’t make me cry like is 😢😢
Looking at the very first day feels so odd. Its like looking at video footage of dinosaurs millions of years ago
The US eShop looked soo much more active and kept up to date 'til the end compared to the European one (at least here in Italy), the bgm had been the same for a whole year
the bgm was the same as the WiiU's all over the world, btw
maybe they wanted both WiiU and 3DS to on the same tone or sum
RIP The 3DS eShop, I never could get it to work, and now I never will D:
Awww the nostalgic eshop sounds 😭
thank you for recording this :( i never had a wii u so i never got to experience this
WHAT? The eShop had different music? This was probably not in Europe because I've been using the 3ds for ages..
Good to see you making videos again Alex! 😭
This dude been here for years, hope you enjoy making these bideos
Time has flown by so much..:(
Anyone else back into using their 3ds(s) since the eshop went down?
I’m not crying my eyes are just sore from paying attention to the video
JUST MODDED YOUR 3DS
geno from eathbound is so iconic he is only in a 100 dollar game
I can still go on the eshop its just that everythings cuurrently unavailable
I still have Dinosaur office on my 3ds xl , it was like 2015 since i've got it
I feel kinda sad because I wasn't born until 2012 and never knew what the eShop was. The last years I can remember knowing eShop was 2022-2023 and I never had Nintendo eShop credit so I couldn't buy anything. The eShop is still online and open, but you just can't download things anymore.
this is nostalgic Rip 3ds and ds era
Wow! This is so cool! Cant believe its been 12 years!!!!!
I had that exact 3DS in blue.
I miss it.
Around a week before the eshops closed I lost my 2ds and still haven’t found it
End of an era❤️
BABE WAKE UP! CDN DROPPED A NEW VIDEO
Omg....dinosaur office..used to watch this religiously🤣🤣🤣
Thank god I never bought a game from the e shop!
Im gonna MISSS these EShop's bro. So SADDDD RAAAA
Weird. I had a different eshop tune for the last few years. That's interesting.
