I get disconnected from MK8 online everytime a race is about to start and eShop is running slow as molasses. Both worked just fine this afternoon and I haven't done anything with my router since so I don't know if the issue is on my front. Are Nintendo's servers overloaded?

Club nintendo is overloaded as well. This makes me really happy because it means traffic is bustling with new Wii U owners!

eShop is working fine now. Will check MK8 in a second.

EDIT: MK8 is still having issues. Got disconnected halfway through a race.

My 3DS and Wii U browsers are both running dreadfully slow, the eshop is down here in North America due to bandwidth issues, although it seems to periodically come back online every now and then, and the online servers for several Wii U titles are barely working, but this will probably get better after this busy weekend as it's most likely due to overcrowded servers because of Mario Kart 8's release.

Cant even log into club nintendo to put in my code. NM just got in. Very very slow. Cant even imagine being able to download a game today.

Spoke too soon. It kicked me off the site. Not able to put in a code.

North American here - issues, as well. Haven't been able to connect to eShop or online matches most of the day. Managed to get a couple matches in a minute ago, but just got disconnected again.

I had a feeling there would be Club Nintendo issues, so good thing I didn't even think about going on there. For online matches, I hope it's not my fault, because I've really been looking forward to Mario Kart 8 online for quite a while.

This will be the game to really test Nintendos new online network. I havent played many games on it yet, but must say not very pleased with wii sports club. Lots of lag going on there.

Btw, still not able to even sign into club nintendo.

Hi guys! My internet connection is working fine, i can use the eShop, Miiverse etc...
But every time i try to play an online race in Mario Kart 8 i get the error: 118-0516...
I wasn't able to play a single online race since i put the game in the console yesterday...
Suggestions?

I can get into games, but I don't get to finish most races I join since I get a "Connection Error"

This is extremely annoying, because I have been in first place literally every time this has happened, usually right before the end of the race too, so I LOSE VR instead of gaining VR. I'm LESS than 1000 right now which is frustrating, because I know that I deserve to be at around 1200 right now

I got on club nintendo early this morning, around 3am or something. Was able to download pikmin3. Played some mario kart online today and everything was perfect.

Same thing happened after Christmas last year but that was a combination of things. Pokemon Box and people turning on their new Wii U/3DS as well as all the download codes for various games. Only reason for this one is Mario Kart 8 and the free game promotion.

So.... I'd assume the game sold fairly well

Hmm, what was the solution then? Time?

It was down from around midday on the 25th Perth time, it was back up by the 27th or so. The solution was to delay the release of Pokemon Bank but even that didn't entirely fix it. Was shaky for a few days.

To be fair they basically gave hundreds of thousands of people a download code for a game of their choice. Something which they no doubt, like I did, redeemed fairly quickly and then downloaded a good 5-10GB. All fairly quickly. That's a lot of data ontop of the Mario Kart 8 downloading, new accounts, MiiVerse interactions and so on. Plus it's not dead like it was then... it's just fairly shaky.
