One man’s rage against the (literal) machine has finally come to a head, as the conclusion of his journey marks the end of theNintendo Network’slife.
This is all a rather dramatic way of saying that one dude tried to keep the Nintendo 3DS servers online for as long as possible, 210 days after they officially switched off back in back in April this year.

Fishguy6564 chugged on. He left his 3DS running and allowed two bots to race each other in perpetuity. Then, tragedy finally struck.

Yesterday, at exactly 1:52 AM GMT, Fishguy6564 announced on Twitter that his 3DS had finally given up the ghost.
“It’s over”he tweeted, assumedly as tears rolled down his face and onto his keyboard. “Rest in peace, Nintendo Network.”
That tweet was sent 210 days after the servers officially shut down. This guy kept the 3DS alive in our hearts (and Nintendo’s servers) for seven whole months. Maybe the real Nintendo Network was the friends we made along the way.
