Nintendo servers are down.

[Ryz]

Just in case anyone is having the 006-0501 error the entire Nintendo servers are down. No idea why. So no PokeBank for sure. Idk about other online play as I don't do it. They don't know when they'll be back. Been offline since yesterday apparently.
Idk if they affects everyone though. But it does me.

Ironically that page seemed to be down half of the time I tried to load it too. :p

glad snoop dogg doesnt have a wii u

or so i hope

He probably does.

and yea, Nintendo needs to get their act together ASAP or they (and Gamestop) will get Support calls claiming that their DS doesn't work.

Oh god that is terrible. I feel sorry for those who are relying on wi-fi and Pokemon Bank at the moment, and hopefully the server gets fixed soon.

Looks like I'll have to tell my friend to hold onto my Thundurus for a little longer. Hopefully it gets fixed before Splatfest starts. We cannot let Team Future take us back to the stone age. Of course, I'll be busy with Xenoblade for the time being.

Haven't noticed, I connected a few hours ago on Omega Ruby and faced no issues, maybe the US servers are in trouble?

I presume that could be the case, but we'll have to wait for someone to give evidence.

Just tried again. I was able to get into bank once. Looks like it's very intermittent still.
