Nintendo eShop logo for the Nintendo Switch.

The Nintendo eShop is a service on the Nintendo 3DS, Wii U, and Nintendo Switch that allows players to purchase and download games and DLC digitally on their systems with Nintendo eShop cards and credit cards, as well as PayPal in the Nintendo Switch version. It was launched on Nintendo 3DS on June 6, 2011 in North America and one day later in Japan, Europe, and Oceania. The service launched on Wii U and Nintendo Switch alongside the respective launches of those consoles.

As of a December 9, 2013 update, a Nintendo Network ID is required to download free and demo software from the Nintendo 3DS eShop. In addition, users can link their Nintendo Network ID to their 3DS and vice versa to combine eShop funds on both systems into one. The Nintendo Switch is capable of linking to a 3DS or Wii U eShop account and combining balances between the three.

Other than purchasing games, users can view information on games and DLC, both currently released and upcoming, and watch trailers and Nintendo Direct presentations, as well as, in the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U versions, episodes of The Cat Mario Show. Users are also able to pre-load some games prior to release and are able to play them after an update on the release.

On July 31, 2020, a limited variant of the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U closed in certain Latin American and Caribbean markets,[1] as well as for the Nintendo 3DS in certain Southeast Asia and the Middle East markets.[2]

On February 15, 2022, Nintendo announced that it will no longer be possible to make purchases on the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U as of an unspecified date in late March 2023. This date was later revealed to be March 27, 2023.[3]
