Nintendo planned to launch some new internet enabled features for the 3DS for the popular Pokémon games…

However,  these have been postponed because of network issues, caused by excess traffic to their online systems for 3DS and Wii-U.

So they plan for new services, but couldn’t handle any additional load?  Like 5 new Wii-U systems that were sold for Christmas,  or the dozen or so e-shop cards that were being redeemed…  Wow – Fail.

Not only that but now their online Current Network Status page even joined the party…

java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 407 for URL: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/netinfo/en_US/index.html ##fail##

Fail is right…
