Nintendo has not made any announcement to the future status of their online shops or to services like netflix. The only online component that is being affected are online games like multiplayer and leader boards.

Use your money for gas mas. Don't get carried away. If they were to take it offline they would (or should) run massive sales and announce it in advance, not shut it down overnight.

They will announce it well beforehand, but I'm 99% sure they will not run any "Last chance" sales on it. Nintendo isn't exactly known for such things, even some Wii titles are still on their original MSRP. I'd be happy to be proven wrong, but I don't believe that'll happen.

Gradius Rebirth, Star Soldier R, Kyotokei and FAST Racing League are all decent Wiiware exclusives.

I am upset I never posted in this thread. And that my favorite Wiiware game has not been mentioned. Bubble Bobble Plus was ported to PSN, but it is still one of the best wiiware games. 4 player Bubble Bobble, with two DLC packs of expert stages involving slopes. If you like the original, this is that, to the nth degree.
