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-

    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ah it's all animated I was hoping for some live action
