I'm honestly surprised they kept the Wii U eShop as open as long as they did. So keeping the servers running that contain the games must not be that much of a hassle for Nintendo, it's just they don't feel these systems are worth dealing with credit card companies anymore. Yeah, I imagine it is since on the Wii you can still redownload games you own if you need to, despite that systems online store being shut down for 3 years now.

I suspect it's much like Sony's initial justification for shutting down the PS3 and Vita stores: they didn't want to pay to keep updating the credit card processing and security features to keep the stores compatible with modern payment standards. I s'pose that could also be a separate announcement to be made within the coming months though. I would think that would be costing them more to run than the shops, since there is no sub fee. I'm a little surprised that they're keeping up online play. Previously, it sold yearly passes for US$5 or equivalent.

Redownloading content, game updates, and online play will still function afterwards. Until the final shutdown, the Switch eShop can be used to load funds that can be used on 3DS and Wii U so long as the accounts are linked. The final shutdown in March 2023 will include the use of purchased download codes and all game/DLC purchases in general.eShop cards will no longer work for adding funds to the Wii U and 3DS beginning on August 29.Starting on May 23, it will no longer be possible to add funds via a credit card on the device eShops (credit cards have been made non-functional in other territories over the last few months).The service will stop in three stages for North America: Nintendo have announced on a support page that the last generation of Nintendo purchases will start winding down in May, with the final shutdown set for March 2023. If you still have a wish list on the Wii U or 3DS eShops, now is the time to clear them out.
