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)

Just give it a go man! Its easy to install. Had to switch from turamisu to aroma cfw but went super smooth while following youtube vids same goes for pretendo.
FunkyScott47 has great vids on youtube 👌

@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-

    @BigOnYa,
    I don't listen? What didn't I listen at? I just want to know all the possible risks on that part
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Hayato even said it's dangerous to backup the save files to CFW
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    how is this dangerous? A ton of people did this it's the most common thing to do with CFW

  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    For example, HOW is is risky to get banned if you extract the save files to the CFW?
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    isn't this proccess be done while you're offline?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We are not Nintendo, so we don't know exactly how/why/when they ban, but better to stay on the safe side and not do shady stuff, if you don't want to be banned. Hayato is one of the most knowledgeable ones here on the subject and I believe what he says.

    300 bucks hmmm lol
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    @BigOnYa, Yes ofc we don't know how Nintendo bans work, but if there are situations where a lot of people have tried safely then we can at least assume that this path is pretty much safe. To say don't try anything homebrew relative just to be safe forever is the easiest thing to say to someone. What I am trying to figure out here is with which cases and what actions got most of the people their bans for.
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Most things I can find resulting to a ban is save-editing reasons, like Pokehex, etc, and going online afterwards.
