Based on what I read, this affecting the Switch, 3DS, and Wii U servers. I tested and the Eshop wasn't working on my 3DS or Switch. I haven't tested my Wii U because it's in another room...

Unfortunately I messed up the link so the joke was sort of lost but they got the link from me off Discord and they thought it was funny? XD

Yeah, the only Smash Ultimate related problem I've had is trying to look at shared content. Doing battles is working fine.

You jest, but I genuinely once had someone visit my NL town and recite the HEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA song.

What I'm trying to say is, you should totally go ahead with your plan once the servers are up. : P

They've known for at least an hour, they updated their status page awhile back. I'm not 100% sure why they waited this long to tweet it out, but whatever goats their float, I guess.

[Velvet_nosebleed]

[IonicKarma]

I'm hearing some people are still having problems based on region, looks like they are starting to come back online though!

 

[coffee biscuit]

[Velvet_nosebleed]

[Sudsofsplash]

I was trying to send a gift to a friend and noticed it was down!
Does this affect local play? Or can I visit friend via local play without issue?
