Nintendo begins banning pirates from 3DS online service

[TotalInsanity4]

Does anyone know how to spoof nnid or how to get unbanned?

Wait it out. Apparently after two weeks everything got sorted out for the origional ban-ees

 

[RD Mac]

Got banned also! I'm using sky3ds

3 days ago. I only used MH4 and SSB online for few minutes, then the next day I got the error code!

The next day, huh? Welp, I gotta check.

Still no details how long this ban thing? Hoping that its not permanent.

Probably 2 weeks or so.

Probably 2 weeks or so.

This, but I'm guessing this may be a "first offence" sort of thing. We have no idea what happens with multiple bans over time

Not the next day.
He probably got banned right away, but as nintendo doesn't kick you out you only notice it the next time you try to connect (which is probably the next day)

Banned too. (French user)
February 25, probably, after using a Pokemon code (Diance).
Public Header (Metal Gear Solid) on all my online games. (I may have done wrong).

Pourtantj've original games and impossible to play online there.

I have a 3DS in New Drawers I have not unpacked. If I transfer all, I would still be banned?

It is possible to have a private header with Sky3DS?

If I do not have to play games online with my hack, no prob.

So are your new drawers big and shiny? You should check they don't catch too much humidity so your 3DS is not damaged.
- You shouldn't be banned in the new 3DS after you transfer your account as this is a console ban, not an NNID ban. (*in theory)
- Yes, it is possible to have private headers with Sky3DS.

It is well! It's a Zelda, I have not had time to do the transfer, a lot of work (and it's boring!). Finally .... Luckily! This is the day that it's done banish. And I intended to keep for pokemon offline exchanges.

Use private header with Sky3DS, yes ... But the import of an original game? Possible?

If you are on 9.2 or lower (and not N3DS, but you said you want to transfer your 3DS to N3DS, so you have a normal too), you can dump any cartridge without a flashcart.
Use Gateway 3DS menu to dump your game. It will contains the uniqueID that you can extract with tools (Gateway cleaner, Gateway patcher, etc.) then use a Sky3DS editor (Sky army knife, No ban no sky, etc.)
you can find links to these application easily from the wiki : http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/List_of_3DS_PC_utilities

Weird thing happened to my 2ds today, just happened to try going online on it and I see I don't get the error code. Went on my legit copies of super smash bros and pokemon y and was able to go online, dodged a bullet here lol.

 

[Lister]

Thank ! N3DS is compatible with this software ?

Gateway did not ... But maybe just to dump ... Maybe ...

 

[Makavelim4]

What I was referring to from my message was that I was banned, after a couple of weeks of non-use I saw that I wasn't banned anymore

 

[hamstrman]

OMGOMGOMGOMG! I JUST took the plunge after years of considering and bought the SKY3DS!

1) Is the banning still going on for people?
2) Did they get unbanned after the assumed 2 weeks?
3) Has anyone gotten repeat bans?
4) I read the FAQs, but I'm not sure EXACTLY what to avoid. Say I want to play Pokemon OR/AS... can I play it as long as I don't trade or play online? Or do I have to turn off my Internet every time I play?

Glad I found this... I also happen to be playing Pokemon Rumble World and Shuffle (god, I hate FTP games... can't stop though) and added a bunch of friends to keep things moving. If I got banned, I'd lose the use of my friend list entirely for all games is what I understand. That right?

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. The moment you let the game connect online with a public header your at risk of being banned. You must inject a private header which requires a gateway compatible 3ds or power saves

just to answer you question #4

i have been using the same public header for all my games (it must not be a very common one but its still a public header) and i have yet to be banned at all....

i connect online almost everyday so... i'm either REALLY lucky or my Public header is not so public.

i agree with the above post though... if you use a public header then you are pretty much accepting the fact that you could be banned at any time but Nintendo. to be safe, either get a private header or don't go online.

Thanks,
Tony

Thanks much. And to Adeka too. Yeah, I hope that switching to a private header is straightforward. It took me weeks to setup HomePass trying every method imaginable, but I consider myself pretty competent. And as I had asked more specifically, do I have to TURN OFF my Internet altogether always or could I, say, use StreetPass or use it in Pokemon Rumble World, but stay away from the Internet just when playing the ROMS or even just IN the ROMs? You've helped greatly. Sorry to keep annoyingly having questions...
