Nintendo's Christmas Woes-Its All Fixed

Hope everyone is enjoying their new Nintendo gifts...because I can't use my gift card ..


Update- 12/28- Everything is working 

Update-12/27

Today Nintendo will be taking down the eShop for both the Wii U and 3Ds.. The service will be down from 4pm to 4am, hopefully this will fix all of the problems


Today many people are celebrating with family and friends, opening their gift. Apparently all of the talk about Nintendo being not relevant anymore isn't the case. For people who just recently set up their new ID and are trying to buy a new game on the eShop will have to wait.


After I received a gift card I thought I would easily log in and buy something new.. In a strange way I, not that sad I can't get into the store yet... It shows Nintendo still has some power after all. When prompted with the suggestion of going to Nintendo's support I found this message to help..

"We are aware that some users are experiencing issues accessing the Nintendo eShop on the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.
The recent system update added the ability to link a Nintendo Network ID with a Nintendo 3DS family system. This has become a popular feature and the number of users creating a Nintendo Network ID on their Nintendo 3DS and accessing the Nintendo eShop has been greater than anticipated. Because of this, there may be times when some users will experience service disruptions to the Nintendo eShop. If you are having problems accessing the Nintendo eShop, we ask that you try again at a later time.
We are working to address these disruptions as quickly as possible and would like to apologize for any inconvenience.
Thank you for your patience."
Also if your having problems with you ID it's stated that you need to make a new one.. So as this continues I will update with this.
