    The nonprofit behind a popular AI training dataset says it purged links to CSAM.

    Nintendo Japan has run out of New 3DS parts.

    In a post on X, Nintendo’s Japanese support account says the company will no longer offer New 3DS repairs because it has “run out of parts necessary for repairs.”

    Nintendo Japan also plans to stop repairing the regular 3DS and 2DS once it runs out of parts. It recently stopped fixing the Wii U as well.
