Nuked The annual holiday surge has brought down the Nintendo switch eShop for some yet again, according to a report from kotakuku.
We are aware that players are experiencing errors accessing Nintendo eShop. We are working to address the issue as soon as possible as possible.
Nintendo sent out a Tweet saying the company is’working to address the issue as soon as possible’. It also includes a link to Nintendo’s online service status page, where you can check for any updates about the outage.
Problems started to arise around 4am et around 4am. The company does n’t offer any additional information on the outage.
Issues peaked at around 9am et on Christmas morning, but have since been on a decline. I was able to open the Nintendo switch eShop, as well as download a couple of updates at around 4:30pm et.
You can still play games online, but you just wo n’t be able to buy or download any content from the eShop. The outage does n’t affect any other online activity.
The eShop went down last year during Christmas, and the company did n’t fully restore service until the next day. Nintendo warned players that the eShop might become overloaded this holiday weekend.
