The Last 3DS Online Player Has Final Stand As System Goes Dark
As 3DS and Wii U online services ended, one final online player was still racing as the system crashed
Speaking with GamesRadar back in August, Fishguy6564 said that he could potentially keep playing forever with the only caveat being "if the 3DS somehow gave in." Sadly, that was the foretold ending.
Fishguy wasn't the only player keeping the tracks alive. He and another fellow player, Marioiscool246, set off with a clear goal: Keep a lobby alive for as long as possible. They did this by installing a patch that "supposedly prevented the death of a lobby" by deploying two bots to race each other endlessly.
After Marioiscool246's 3DS crashed in May, Fishguy6564 kept going for almost seven months. Even back in August, he couldn't believe it lasted that long. "It sure has been a wild ride," he added.
