PSA: Nintendo Switch Servers Are Down For Maintenance Right Now

Having trouble getting online with your Nintendo Switch right now? It's not a problem on your end. Currently all network services are offline as part of a round of server maintenance.

"We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause," Nintendo said on its support site.

The maintenance began at 1 PM PT today, April 3, and ends at 6 PM PT. This maintenance period is for Nintendo Switch, as well as Wii U, 3DS, Wii, and DS.

More downtime is planned for later this week. Some network services for Switch, Wii U, and 3DS--including online play and rankings--will be unavailable on April 5. This downtime is scheduled to run April 5 at 6:45 PM PT through 8 PM PT that same day.

In other Switch news, retailers in Australia have received new shipments of the hard-to-find console. In other parts of the world, including the US, the hybrid console remains elusive.
