Wii Points was a payment system that Nintendo used for consumers to purchase games and other features for its Wii console through the Wii Shop Channel.
Consumers could purchase a "Wii Points Card" which they would then spend online. The main use of the card was to buy virtual console games. However, consumers were also able to use their Wii Points card to purchase the Opera Wii Browser, although the software was downloadable for free until June , and became free permanently in September Wii Points could be bought in this way from retailers or purchased online directly from Nintendo.
Prepaid cards in Japan would be made available in multiples of 1,, 3, and 5, points, with the 5, point card coming bundled with a classic controller. In all other regions, there would only be point cards. Virtual Console has been replaced by the slowly-growing Nintendo Switch Online NS service which now consists of 82 games definitely nothing to sneeze at.

There isnt an official Virtual Console for the Nintendo Switch but there are now over retro games available through the eShop. Super Mario Bros 2.
Virtual Console has been replaced with Nintendo Switch Online for multiple reasons but the most important one is consistent profits. As were in a post-Virtual Console age we likely are close to the point when Nintendo enhances and improves Switch Online at least to some degree.
