I installed pretendo yesterday,
All looks good (showing miiplaza messages...).
I tried MK8 yesterday and that worked fine but since i updated MK8 it still won't connect to the mk8 online seevers anymore.

i also installed other games like splatoon and smash bros (also with updates) but non seems to connect online.

Does pretendo only works without game updates?

Maybe this is because i still have the nintendo servers blocked?
Or is it safe to use my Wiiu again without the blocked Nintendo servers now that they are offline and just connect to the internet?

Ty!

UPDATE: Got in MK8 server now, Seems to be an pretendo server issue.

If u get error 101-0502 just keep trying to go online , after 5times i just got online with pokken and mk8.

UPDATE2: for splatoon : if u get error 104-2210 u need to go to your network settings and change the dns settings to 088.198.140.154 and secondary dns to 8.8.8.8

Install inkay:
Try and see if inkay is up to date (Inkay: https://github.com/PretendoNetwork/Inkay/releases/tag/v2.4.0 goes in \wiiu\environments\aroma\plugins)
DON'T SKIP THIS Check if you have Nimble (30_nimble.rpx) in the right place, if you don't, get it here: https://github.com/PretendoNetwork/Nimble/releases/tag/v3 (goes in \wiiu\environments\aroma\modules\setup)
Try deleting shared save data (system settings -> data management -> select your storage device -> splatoon -> Delete shared save data)
Try and unregister boss tasks (Open the aroma menu (L + DPAD down + Select), click inkay, then Boss settings, and unregister boss tasks)

@darky2003 Pretendo works with updated games just fine. Did you create a new user? Cause your old one most likely is linked to a Nintendo Network ID, not to a Pretendo Network ID (Miiverse works a bit different so you receive these Wara Wara Plaza messages even then).

Also I think Pretendo registration is still closed thanks to the massive inrush of new users-

    I only drank alcohol once and it was by accident
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    I didnt know it was beer, it was on a juice bottle
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yeah, I'm addicted to smoking, sadly. It's very addictive but I wish I didn't start.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    May just order a 5700g for a nas/emulation set up tbh

    @SylverReZ, atleast you were asleep on 4/20

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Reason how I found Newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/249365
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    https://tcrf.net/Pico_VS_Bear
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds
