After Nintendo shut the doors on its Wii U and 3DS shops, we are just a couple months away from Microsoft doing the same thing for Xbox 360.

This means Xbox will stop supporting the “ability to purchase new games, DLC, and other entertainment content” – don’t worry you’ll still be able to play all of the stuff you already own – come July…so it might be time to stock up.
