    Wii U and 3DS online services shutting down today, but Pretendo is here to save the day

    You can doubt it if you want. But I did send screenshots of it actively happening. So at this point, people can believe what they want. I’ve corrected people enough and sent more than enough receipts, more than really should have been necessary. If people want to still believe otherwise, that’s...

    Wii U and 3DS online services shutting down today, but Pretendo is here to save the day

    I’m not ignoring anything. There’s almost 40,000 people in our Discord server and what? A handful of people are complaining about being banned? And I’ve proven with screenshots that people do lie about the reasons and blow it out of proportion? Yeah, I’m not exactly inclined to believe that...

    Wii U and 3DS online services shutting down today, but Pretendo is here to save the day

    He literally was not banned for that. I don't know why people are running with this, but it's just straight up not the reason. He wasn't even manually banned by a moderator. He was auto banned for having too many past violations. The moderation bot on the Pretendo Discord server can issue...

    I'm the founder and lead developer. I've said "we" and "us" and the like a few times now

    Wii U and 3DS online services shutting down today, but Pretendo is here to save the day

    From my own experience, this was never an issue? Especially in Splatoon. We never had any issues getting into matches for any of our research sessions We literally announced our hackless, DNS only, method for Wii U's last night lol

    Wii U and 3DS online services shutting down today, but Pretendo is here to save the day

    Fun fact, the original name of the project was "RiiU", standing for both "Replacement Wii U" and the R from my username

    Wii U and 3DS online services shutting down today, but Pretendo is here to save the day

    I've said it once and I'll say it again. You people are confusing Discord server bans with service bans. They are 2 different things, and don't inherently overlap. Service bans happen with active cheating in public lobbies in ways that effect other players experiences. Discord server bans happen...

    Wii U and 3DS online services shutting down today, but Pretendo is here to save the day

    Being banned from the Discord server and being banned from the game servers are two entirely different things. Game server bans only occur when actual cheating happens in public matches. You're even free to cheat in private matches, as it's assumed everyone in the private match agreed to it. And...

    Restoring rverse after Pretendo install?

    Launch Nimbus and swap back to Nintendo Network Remove the files from the SD card that you placed there during installation Put the rverse files on your SD card Though it's worth noting that if you're talking about this thread when you say "almost bricked", the main issue there was almost...

    Please do not trust Pretendo's paid services

    It's not a "paid service". Everything that isn't in beta is always open to the public, and there's already several games like this. We also hold an open beta at least once a year, but often times more than that. Each game is worked on independently, so there is no ETA for when any one game will...

    3DS Save Data Transfer Tool potentially has an "End of Life" and seemingly a killswitch?

    Yes, it is custom. This is what the default "service has ended" error provided by the 3DS looks like The default error screen is shown as well in the SDTT, and then it additionally has it's own custom screen for displaying the message The message itself is generic, but the way it's...

    3DS Save Data Transfer Tool potentially has an "End of Life" and seemingly a killswitch?

    Absolutely. The title doesn’t actually do anything with the tokens, it seems to just check if a token can be requested at all. Over at Pretendo it’s just a matter of adding support for the title on our servers and it will run indefinitely (so long as your console is connected to our network)...

    3DS Save Data Transfer Tool potentially has an "End of Life" and seemingly a killswitch?

    You're once again just playing the "what if" game here, there's no evidence to back any of that up. I mentioned physical ownership because you mentioned piracy, which doesn't make any sense here so I assumed you were trying to imply that the SDTT somehow facilitated piracy directly Again, there...

    3DS Save Data Transfer Tool potentially has an "End of Life" and seemingly a killswitch?

    The SDTT only works by moving a save from a physical cartridge to digital copy of the game on the SD card. It only functions when a physical copy of the game exists in the hand of the user, I'm not buying that this has anything to do with piracy seeing as the tool does literally nothing without...

    3DS Save Data Transfer Tool potentially has an "End of Life" and seemingly a killswitch?

    This is definitely an interesting theory and something to consider, but I personally don't believe this to be the case. The theory of a region making weird legislation like this is purely just the "what if" game, seeing as there's no real evidence to back it up. Also when it comes to exploits...

    3DS Save Data Transfer Tool potentially has an "End of Life" and seemingly a killswitch?

    Obviously no one has exact stats on this, however in the communities I am in many people do use this tool This is definitely not the case, as the tool has specific handling for this error showing it's own custom error message/screen for it. This handling was implemented intentionally

    3DS Save Data Transfer Tool potentially has an "End of Life" and seemingly a killswitch?

    It's not new information that the Save Data Transfer Tool (SDTT) requires an internet connection to function, but what is surprising is that it has an official EoL and what looks like a "killswitch" TLDR: The SDTT, a local save data tool with no real need for online connectivity, makes several...

    Homebrew Deleting Wii U user without NID password?

    It should be noted that the above method does also work and, yes, will clean up any artifacts from the user left on the system (such as save data, which is very useful), but it will not unlink the NNID from the console as far as the server is concerned. It has the same effect as just deleting...

    Hacking How do I use System Config Tool to delete old accounts without their NNID's passwords?

    If you manually delete an account from the WiiU then no, it does not get unlinked by the server. Because the server was never told the account was being removed, and the console can't tell the server about an account it no longer has the data for. It's just gone, in purgatory

    Hacking How do I use System Config Tool to delete old accounts without their NNID's passwords?

    You can link other NNIDs to that console, but the NNIDs you manually delete can't be linked to other consoles The password hash in the account.dat is the password (for all intents and purposes). Nintendo doesn't use your password directly, it first hashes it on the console and then sends that...
