The official Nintendo Japan website has announced that credit cards will no longer be viable payment methods for the Wii U and 3DS family of platforms. The planned time for this termination of usage is January 18, 2022, at 9 AM Japan time. However, it is worth noting that Nintendo prepaid cards can still be used for purchases on these platforms, but who knows how long this functionality will last before it too is terminated. Additionally, 3DS and Wii U games can still be purchased with credit cards from the Nintendo store on their official website.
