For the last couple of weeks, I have been unable to access SmashWiki (and MarioWiki) from the 3DS and Wii U's browsers. Why is this? <span style="font-family:Mario Party 2/3 Textbox">[[User:RickTommy|<span style="color:red">Rick</span>]][[User talk:RickTommy|<span style="color:green">Tommy</span>]]</span> 04:49, July 1, 2019 (EDT)

:Most likely has to do with the web code updating. Basically, the 3DS and Wii U web browsers run on quite outdated code (I believe neither one fully supports HTML5, for example), and with the systems' post-launch support gradually being phased out, there isn't much priority in updating that code or keeping the wikis compatible. If you have a smartphone, using that would be your best bet. ~ [[User:Serena Strawberry|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Serena Strawberry'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Serena Strawberry|talk]]) 06:04, July 1, 2019 (EDT)

::I know this is very late but I'll explain from what I read, as I had the same problem around this time and asked on the main page (this was before I found the help desk). I'm mainly doing this if anyone else comes here and is experiencing the same problem: [https://forum.starmen.net/forum/Fangamer/BugsAndFeatures/Can-t-access-forum-from-my-Wii-U-but-I-can-access-just-fine-on-my-laptop According to this thread], the reason is because the 3DS and Wii U browsers are incompatible with the new SSL certificate for this site. As Serena said the browsers are outdated and are highly unlikely to update, so yeah I recommend a smartphone. <span style="font-family: Algerian">'''[[User:supatoad64|<span style="color:green;">Supα</span>]][[User talk:supatoad64|<span style="color:red;">Toαd</span><span style="color:blue;">64</span>]]'''</span> [[Image:001Toad.jpg|20px]] 05:34, December 20, 2019 (EST)
