RIP Virtual Console: Nintendo will shut off Wii U, 3DS game downloads

2023 shutdown is "part of the natural lifecycle" for consoles "less used by consumers."

I see it's been a while since you've posted, but I just want to ask—has anyone here tried using JKSM or Checkpoint to back up 3DS save data before the shutdown? I'm thinking of doing that soon and wondering if there are quirks or gotchas I should know about. Also curious what everyone's chosen method is now for preserving their digital libraries.

I’ve been backing up all my game data and keeping local copies since stuff like this isn’t surprising anymore. For my photos and media files, I use tools that make organizing way easier—https://www.blueberry-ai.com/blog/12...-photographers helped me find a setup that doesn’t make me dig through endless folders. I kind of wish Nintendo had a system like that for games.
