Konami is developing a baseball video game with unlimited potential in partnership with the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC) alongside an international esports competition.

Nothing much has been revealed yet, except with the development of this video game, the goal is to allow baseball to continue to grow globally and to address an audience that has not yet been reached.

This game will allow the global baseball community, National Federation, and gamers worldwide to participate in a potential newly/jointly created WBSC esport international baseball competition.

The game will lean heavily into this competitive side making it a “global esports initiative”.

Nintendo 3DS & Wii U eShop are being discontinued permanently as of March 2023.

In the west, it will close on March 27, 2023, and in Japan on March 28, 2023.

Users will no longer be able to make new purchases after the service shuts down & Gamers will not be allowed to use a Nintendo eShop gift card to add funds to their account as of August 29. 

The good news is they can still redownload any previously purchased games, receive software updates & use online features for any games on both systems.

So that’s it then, folks!!
