Nintendo has confirmed that it is no longer manufacturing Wii U consoles.
In a statement to IGN, a Nintendo representative confirmed that “Wii U production has ended globally.”
Previously, Nintendo confirmed that Wii U production would be ending soon, but didn’t provide an exact timeframe. Yesterday, Nintendo updated Wii U sales figures alongside its latest financial report, confirming that just over 13.5 million consoles were sold as of December 31, 2016.
Nintendo confirmed last month that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will be the last first-party Wii U game.
The news comes as Nintendo prepares to launch its next console, Nintendo Switch, on March 3rd.
