RPG Maker FES on 3DS loses user-created games March 31st, 2023

NIS America announced in a newsletter and on Twitter on November 25th that RPG Maker FES for Nintendo 3DS will be shutting down on March 31st, 2023 just days after the closure of the 3DS eShop itself. After that date no user-created games can be downloaded.

With the Nintendo 3DS eShop service ending, we will be closing the RPG Maker FES servers on March 31, 2023 11PM PST.  Once the servers close, you won’t be able to download games, so please download the games you’d like before then! Thank you for your support!

NIS America tweet – November 25, 2022

For anyone interested in seeing what players have created since FES launched in 2016, the RPG Maker Player is still available as a free download on the eShop. It allows you to browse, download, and play user-created games and experiences but unfortunately there isn’t enough free space in the app to save them all.

Thanks to an anonymous reader who pointed out the news posted by RPGamer. I’ve added the date to the Watch List calendar for now.
