Nintendo is shutting down its video service for the Wii U console less than three years after it began, but few users are lamenting its demise.

Nintendo TVii will be ending on Aug. 11, according to a message on a company support page.

“Every service has a life cycle, and it is time to focus our resources on other projects,” Nintendo said, adding that third-party video-on-demand apps will still work on the Wii U console.

The Nintendo TVii Miiverse community, a forum to discuss TV shows and other content, will also be closed. Miiverse is a site that connects Wii U and Nintendo 3DS players around the world.
