Nintendo had previously confirmed that they were ending purchases on the 3DS and Wii U eShops sometime in late March 2023. They’ve now provided additional details, citing March 27, 2023 as the day that purchases on these eShops will become unavailable.
They’ve also clarified that starting August 29, 2022, you’ll no longer be able to directly add funds to the Wii U and 3DS eShops. You will however be able to redeem download codes after this date, and if you’ve linked your Nintendo Network ID to your Nintendo Account, you’ll still be able to make purchases using shared funds added to your Nintendo Account. The final bit of news is that oddly enough, purchases of Fire Emblem Fates on the 3DS eShop will end one month earlier than the rest, on February 28, 2023. However DLC for the game, including the additional story paths accessible after Chapter 6, will still be available until March 27, 2023.
Here is some additional information from Nintendo:

Posted on 2 years ago by Nicolas in News, Switch | 0 comments
An “E for Everyone” rating for a “Humongous Classic Collection” has just surfaced on the ESRB’s official site, as initially spotted by Gematsu. This could be hinting towards the release of a larger collection of Humongous Entertainment’s various titles on the system.
Interestingly, several Humongous Entertainment games are already available on Switch, such as Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo, Pajama Sam and Spy Fox: Dry Cereal. Presumably this collection would just offer a way to play all of these titles in one package, rather than needing to purchase them separately. No other information regarding this collection has surfaced, but we’ll keep you updated if something pops up.
