It's been 15 days since the Wii U and 3DS servers were supposed to shut down, but a few courageous players hav෴e somehow managed to cling onto what🃏ever bits of life are left in a handful of games for those systems. The last remaining Splatoon player is holding♌ fast even as the servers have s✅tarted to crumble around them.

"Hold on to your tentacles… for some bad news," Lcd101 writes on . "As of the (delayed) 2:00 A.M. EST rotation, matchmaking (lobby) has officially gone down in Splatoon. Other online services, including the news and shops, are still functional and I still remain online. I repeat, I am STILL online." Matchmaking, of course, doesn't have much point right now, given that Lcd101 is the only playe🔯r who's still connected to the Splatoon servers

Lcd101 notes that the game is displaying the same error code that happened 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:when꧂ i🍷t was temporarily shut down back in 2023, so I guess we're not in fully uncharted territory here. Either way, Lcd101 says "I intend to stay online in this s♛tate for as long as pos𓄧sible."

As of just a few days ago, it was believed that six players were hanging on in theꦯ 3DS and Wii U servers. Inc☂redibly, it seems that another holdout has b♛een discovered. As GaffsNotLaffs notes on , there's one player hanging on in online lobbies for Wii Sports Club, joining the other proud few remaining players in Mario Kart 8, Mario Kart 7, Splatoon, Super Mario Maker, and Pokemon XY.

The 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Wii U games are still great even without their online features.
