Nintendo stopped selling Wii and DSi games, but it still allows users to download games they already own. Both stores went completely offline with no explanation from the company, according to Eurogamer. There is a blank white screen and error code if you try to select the Wii Shop channel. Nintendo said you would still be able to download games for a period of time after it shuttered those stores. It warned that the Wii System Transfer Tool would not work once the server was shut down. Nintendo has kept these stores open for a long time, but people would be upset if they shut them down without warning. Many people would have liked at least a few months notice so they could download or transfer their games. Some people have found that they can use third-party tools to access games on the server. The decision to close the PS3 and Vita stores was reversed by Sony. The situation for Nintendo isn't quite the same, but it should provide some kind of explanation if the stores don't come back online soon.
