All over the country, people everywhere are unpacking their new Nintendo portable hardware, launching their accounts, and trying to buy new digital games. But in the last few hours via social mediawho have favourited the Nintendo Switch storefront known as the eShop was up and down. Sometimes it loads, albeit slowly.

For error code 2811-7429, the message staring at you after some loading problems simply says the console cannot connect to the server and you should try again later. Kotaku has contacted Nintendo for more information on when users can expect service to return. the official online server website says, “We are currently having difficulties with our network services.”
Most of the time it shouldn’t be also annoying when it comes to enjoying the console. You can still launch any games you already own, you just can’t buy new stuff or download DLC and the like. Granted, you can’t redeem gift cards either, which is likely to be a nuisance to anyone who received them this morning. That’s probably a lot of people, isn’t it? Lots of people who certainly load and reload are hoping something has changed this time … oh, this will probably take a while.
But for those folks who had the foresight to give away or buy physical games if they didn’t download stuff before boxing – well, you’re probably fine. Everyone else: Honestly, something like this happens almost every year, for at least one of the consoles or one of the big games. I know it is annoying now and probably will be for part of the day. The servers are definitely being hammered. I guess spending time with your family or something?
