All of Nintendo’s online services are experiencing technical difficulties at the moment.

A notice posted on the company’s network status page indicates that the Wii U, 3DS, Wii, and DS are affected. It states, “Due to technical difficulties, some online service features may be unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.”

Nintendo began encountering issues at 8:20 AM PT / 11:20 AM ET. It is not yet clear what caused the downtime and when all services will be restored.


Video has been placed after the break due to auto-play.

Super Ubie Land players will find a crossover with Two Brothers, an upcoming indie game from AckkStudios that we’ve covered here previously.

Roy Guarder from Two Brothers will ask Ubie to collect secret “Jewels” that allows the character to turn into different colors. Four of them can be found throughout Climate Island.
