  1. Hey everyone, by some stroke of luck the Spotpass servers for the Wii U and 3DS were not yet shutdown so it is still possible to obtain and submit archives.

    If you have a Wii U or 3DS I highly encourage you to follow the guide on this site to submit dumps.
    Even if you don't please spread the word so we can get as many dumps as possible and save as much content as we can.

  2. Reminder for anyone with a Wii U or 3DS that it is only 2 days until the Nintendo Network services shutdown.

    If you have a 3DS or Wii U you should please consider archiving #Spotpass data before the shutdown date because all unarchived data will be gone forever.

    (Even if you don't have a Wii U or 3DS please spread the word and boost this post for visibility)

    More details about Spotpass archival project here:

    Archived data helps preserve the unique online components of games and can also help @pretendo with games revival.

  3. Just submitted my 3DS's SpotPass dump, and I advise anyone else with a #3DS and/or #WiiU to dump their own #SpotPass data before April 8 as that's when #Nintendo will take all the #NintendoNetwork stuff offline. Working on getting my USB drive formatted at 32K FAT32 in ~~PowerShell~~ GUIFormat (PS didn't work-see below) to dump my Wii U data (doing all of it since I've been meaning to). Here are details and instructions, it's not that difficult if you know computer stuff:
