That means the likes of Netflix will stop working on Wii from 31st January.
Confirmation comes from a note on Netflix's website, and users on reddit have reported receiving email warnings.
It make sense the 12-year-old console would lose functionality, and with the Nintendo Switch getting a YouTube app just this week, it feels like the torch is finally being passed.
According to users, Netflix's email includes the following:
"We hope you'll soon enjoy an even better Netflix experience with additional features on a supported device. Please visit netflix.com/wii for our device list."
A hint Netflix will soon come to Nintendo Switch?
