Homebrew Question eXhop allows you to play online despite ban?

[kucarachi]

I am currently on Nintendo's not so nice list and have been banned from playing most games online. I have noticed though ones i have bought and downloaded stopped working or wouldn't let me online. If i use eXhop and reinstall them after the ban then i can go back online with such games as Mario Kart, Mario Odyssey, Fortnite and other eshop games i have purchased. Is this the whole reason for eXhop and im just a nub? Or is this not supposed to be happening? I wanted to be able to play Splatoon 2 online but didn't purchase the digital copy so it won't let me online. In theory if i purchase the digital version then delete and reinstall it with eXhop i can go back online with it? Or would i just be wasting 60 bucks?

It does not. It's just downloading things you own basically. If you read what he posted all the information is there.

If you have been legitimately banned, please submit a ban report here when you have some time: https://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-switch-banning-hub.508710/
Your input would be greatly appreciated!

I read all that but was wondering how im able to play online in the games i purchased digitally. They wouldn't even start until i deleted them and reinstalled them via eXhop

I don't have time right now to look up all that stuff as my kids are playing with the switch, but i was banned almost instantly by using a backup version of Splatoon 2 on SX OS while going online. I will try to show video and give more detail.

No, if your console is banned. It's bye bye Online play until someone manage to find a way to unban, if it's even possible that is.

well i get the screen that says the use of online services is currently restricted when i try to go online. But what i'm saying if i delete and redownload the same game that just wouldnt go online again through eXhop all those error codes vanish and i'm able to go online. I'm trying to just put it out there that i am still banned except when i use eXhop to reinstall it. Maybe somebody that knows what they are doing can figure a way to do that with all the games without having to buy every one.

Your console's banned, not your account. Nintendo has restricted your console's unique certificate from making any valid online requests. Either someone can create a spoofer or inject a non-banned console certificate to go online with. Nintendo is not restricting the games specifically from going online...yet.

This guy doesn't know what the word ban means

OP is saying that the entire console is banned (and presumably the cert) but games downloaded through exhop can play online anyway

That's not what he said.
He's asking if another copy of the game can be played online. I have no clue where you got that from

No. He states as a fact, not a question

" I have noticed though ones i have bought and downloaded stopped working or wouldn't let me online. If i use eXhop and reinstall them after the ban then i can go back online with such games as Mario Kart, Mario Odyssey, Fortnite and other eshop games i have purchased.

This is how I'm reading it as well. OP is banned and his games stopped working, so he used eXhop to redownload the games and all of the sudden his games work online again.

My guess is that eXhop forces the game to get a new certificate, thereby bypassing the ban. Just my guess.

Shit. You're right.my bad bruh

You are both wrong... He literally says that his games cannot go online, except for a few that he reinstalled with exhop. That's why he is asking if that is supposed to happen.

In summary:

- His games got banned
- He deleted his digital games.
- He reinstalled them with exhop.
- He went online with the reinstalled titles succesfully.

So he's asking why is he able to play online with those games if he's been banned. Maybe he got a cert ban

he said he can go online even tho he was banned like 3 times, why you keep trying to correct him that he cant when he clearly has told you THREE TIMES that he can go online?

Are you able to download new games? (were only those games banned or were you totally banned from eshop?)

I get that you want to get people to your thread, but can you stop fucking promoting it everywhere?

 

[solitaire4eva]

How is everyone reading the same thing, but getting different interpretations lol.

Report it as off-topic and let the mods decide if it passes muster.

It's not that it's off topic, it's that you shit up every thread with the mention of "I'm banned" with your thread. We get it, you have a thread. Don't promote it everywhere, it's annoying to constantly see it. Hell, it's like you have a bot linked to your account that links your thread when there's mention of the word "ban" in the Switch forums. Stop.
