The digital apocalypse for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U users is coming; This is the last weekend of the Nintendo eShop and the next one will cease to exist, but when will the exact time be when it will stop working?
Despite the fact that Nintendo eShop will leave Nintendo 3DS and Wii U on March 27, in 1 day, there are still users who still do not make the purchases and downloads of the games that they have pending and that will not be available again.
But many do not know what the precise time will be when the stores will stop working because Nintendo was not very clear with this detail. Will it be at midnight on March 26? At midnight on March 27? Or will the shutdown happen at the same time, at a different time depending on the region?

At what exact time will the Nintendo eShop stop working?
The final time of the Nintendo eShop of Nintendo 3DS and Wii U will not be the same for all regions and the closure will come first to countries in the East (New Zealand, then Japan, then Europe and finally America).
No. What will happen is that the shutdown will happen at the same time (not the same time) all over the world. Precisely, Nintendo eShop will stop working at 6:00 PM on March 27, 2023 in Mexico City.
In case you missed it: youtuber bought all the games from the Nintendo eShop on the Nintendo 3DS and the Wii U for a noble cause.
The time will depend on the region, this means that in American countries the platform will close on March 27, 2023, but in the old continent and in countries of the Eastern Hemisphere it will already be March 28, 2023, like Japan (9: 00 AM on March 28).
