End of an era as they say. I made sure to pick up any games I wanted earlier but noticed I had 1500 left so I picked up Super Smash Bros just to have it easier to access and Faxanadu finish off my purchases. Those two along with Final Fantasy 2, Chrono Trigger, both Lost Winds, Cruis'n USA, Final Fantasy 1, Phantasy Star 1 and 4. DLC for Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a Darklord and My Life as King. FF2 and CT were just purchases to make sure I had them regardless if the show up elsewhere.



I did a lot more VC shopping on my 3DS and on the Wii U eshop. When I originally got my Wii I really wasn't in the position to really take advantage of it. Saw many games I wanted to play at the time but with college money was tight and a lot of games I got as gifts over the years. I'm not in a position to really spend but a lot of those titles didn't transfer on to the Wii U outside of the Wii mode. A lot never showed up on the 3DS and nothing on the Switch. I wish I could have taken advantage of the shop more over the years.



I took advantage of this time to finally do the Wii to Wii U transfer. Seeing the Pikmin carry the files is very bitter sweet. I won't really touch the Wii anymore at this point unless I'm playing a GameCube game since it will take up less space.



I do kinda wish Nintendo made a bigger deal of it closing but so many have long moved pass the Wii I guess it didn't make much sense.
