This was bound to happen at some point, but it is still a bit sad to see. I have barely used either of my 3DS since the release of S/S, but I have some plans to return to them eventually, later this year at the earliest. Other than that, I feel mostly done with 3DS, I have pretty much moved on to Switch at this point. I don't even have a Wii U so no problems there.
I finally got around to buying the Dream Radar last year, just need to play through it as well... As for other games I don't have that are digital-only... I have thought about buying Crystal from the e-shop since the battery for my Crystal cart is dead, and it would be nice to have a functioning copy of my favorite Johto game. Especially one that isn't going to die one day because of the battery failing. Yes, emulators exist and playing it that way is completely free but technically illegal, though I think it gives a much better "feeling" to play games on a real console. But if I end up getting Crystal, when am I going to find the time to actually play through it? I already have so many other things planned for this year. So much to do, so little time. But I still have a year left to make up my mind about it, so that's good.
On a positive note, I am happy to see that Bank usage will continue AND it will be free to use eventually! Personally, I have barely used Bank since the release of S/S (I don't have the Premium version for Home either) but this is great since it means that transferring Pokémon to future generations will still be possible even after the e-shop has closed.
