Ehh I was part of both because I was born in ‘07. I still play my 3DS to this day and just got off of it to scroll CZcams. I hate that companies like Nintendo are sunsetting online servers for older devices. It makes you really appreciate groups like Pretendo.
I was playing Daisy Cruiser where at times you could start to tell that they were shutting down servers, the server I was in had slowed and sped up quickly and eventually the server went kaput. :(
@@willosfloppydrive so? that doesnt change anything. you do realise how much of a miracle it is that any of this works at all? sure nothing might have happend for hours, years even, but what if it say.. caught fire instead? think about it. it could catch fire at any moment. anything could. and yet here we are. still alive. but that doesnt mean it cant happen. no server is actually used for gameplay, its purely communication between the systems (peer to peer). obviously it still cares that it maintains a connection to the servers, report some info about the match, but thats about it. someone even made a mod for it to not care and they've got the livestream here on youtube, two bots still running againt eachother.
@@Chipmunkboy the servers started to slow at 7:00 (right on time), like the servers were shutting down (because they were) and literally two minutes later the servers shut down.
@@willosfloppydrive read my comment. servers werent shut down at 7, but connections to the servers were rejected. they gave you the two minutes to play another race because they were aware the game will disconnect. the game is peer to peer.
@@coolnhotmodding yeah, not only is the video based on the Nintendo WFC one by gumgum99, but in that video, the person playing got one of those lightning clouds just as the server went kaput. Also, I love how you made the title a reference to the original. R.I.P Nintendo WFC 2005-2014 R.I.P Nintendo Network 2012-2024 And what's worse is that the Switch is next... Edit: Wanted to add another thing: I understand the poor quality, since the 3DS's top screen resolution is... is.... Ugh, hold on... *opens up google tab and starts typing* 800 x 240 (which is 400 x 240 per eye), so there is no way to improve the quality without emulating it with a good PC. Did you know? The Nintendo DS's screen resolution can't even fit a Sega Genesis game with a 1:1 pixel ratio. Sorry if I'm yapping too much, lol 😅
it’s like the Wii all over again
Only difference is that there’s a whole new generation suffering it now
i've had to see both such a horrible fate, one day... a while from now the switch will follow their fates 😞

Yeah, I was there on my Wii U, RIP 3DS + WII U (3DS: Feb 26, 2011 - Apr 8/9, 2024) (Wii U: Nov 18, 2012 - Apr 8/9, 2024)
Imagine getting from 8th to 1st only for the server to literally die

@@Chipmunkboy no i hadnt lagged in the three hours i was playing before the servers shut down

RIP MK7 bro i remember playing that game years and years ago... so sad to see it go
Mk7 new life with pretendo
was actually thinking of making a video with this exact same title, glad someone did
I get the title reference
Thought it was just me lol
Glad you caught it!
mk7 was one of the games that made me become friends with my best friend now. sad to see it go...
I remember playing this with my friends a lot 😢
the title of this video is quite the callback to the mario kart wii version of this vid
*N64 Mario Raceway lap 1 flashbacks*
bro imagine playing on the server within its final moments and you get hit with a blue shell.
Yeah, seeing that guy take up my entire screen for a split sec made me giggle

1:40 thats odd usually the race finishes with the results then it ends
You're gonna get penalized for disconnecting
"we know it was because we pulled the plug on our servers, but we'll just ban your account for 2 hours."
Was fun 🥹
Good bye Nintendo 3DS.
not the servers getting shut down when they finally get the first place 😭😭
NOOOOOOO
rip nintendo network
This is based off gumgum99's video isn't it
Coincidence, I was racing in bowser castle then the servers rip
(but, a friend do the final race In rainbow road)
The final boss is never defeated
Noooo😢
Rip
F
