I contacted Nintendo after the ban... (German)

The leaked games are version "0" since they're converted from rom dumps, the official eshop Sun and Moon "versions" are 16 and 32, it's just something technical but I think it's better to re-install from freeshop.

 

error 002-0102 is confirmed 15 days while error 022-2812 is confirmed perm (console ban)

 

what Are your sources?

 

Basically... they are now making real on what they could've done in DS days already.

I'm not surprised. It is their good right.
You cannot expect a service for free when you didn't even payed a part of the server cost (probably included in the new game price).
It's a wonder they even took the time to reply you...

 

Except for the people who, yknow, preordered on the e-shop like me. Technically i deserve the ban, because running unauthorised code violates nintendo's ToS. But it still kinda sucks i got banned for a game i paid for (twice, sun and moon). I'm not saying its unfair, its very fair. But 120 euros man.. And the support guy was extremely rude to me.

 

Patience is a virtue, so they say.

It's one thing to play a pirated copy - but playing it online before release? No wonder why Nintendo ripped those Pokeballs off. Your Digletts will never evolve again.

 

I always wondered if a .3ds game converted to .cia was the same as the original eshop game...

That's why i always prefer to install Legit CIA's when i can, and i'm waiting for Pokemon Sun/Moon Legit CIA to be uploaded before starting to play it!

 

Freeshop has them

How do you completely remove the leaked version? I've also played it offline and I've already exported the save file.

 

FBI->Delete Title and ticket

 

Nintendo of America: HUEHUE You're using something that isn't right and we can't tell you the result! HUEHUE

Nintendo of Germany: You were using an illegal copy before the game was even released, and because of that, the ban is permanent. I'm sorry, but that's how things go around here.

Nintendo of Germany rules!

 

Thanks, going to wait until tomorrow before installing the freeshop version

 

In that case... it might pay to kindly remind them that you bought it.
Perhaps your friend "tinkered with your 3DS while you were away" ?

I can only imagine that this might calm them, since if one has payed for a product there is no more justification for em to uphold the ban (it's probably just some blacklist on their servers anyways)


NOTE: I'm banned (lol pun intented) to see if they will ban cheaters aswell...
Those ruined Metroid Prime Hunters back in the days, and I would want to see them act accordingly this time.
(Sun/Moon is probably one of the only new games worth playing online eitherhow...)

At least they do, can't say the same for the country itself

 

The Legit CIA? You sure??

Because the Legit CIA is not modified in any way and can be installed in any 3DS, without any "user information" attached to it.

 

freeshop is just an eshop mirror without the device checking shit

 

I did this, the support guy didn't care and started saying pretty rude stuff. I should've recorded the conversation...
The ban is/was justified for only violating their terms of service, but i can't help to feel like they stole 120 euros (because pokemon moon was the only CIA installed). I know my case is pretty unusual, and most people who got banned are full-out pirates with other cia's installed. Nintendo just lost a customer (Not that they will notice/care lmao)

 

Freeshop gets it straight from Nintendo themselves. It's legit.

 

I didn't used the illegal dump of the game but used my retail cartridge which I got three days ago...
That sucks.

 

the 022 code was confirmed by mail while the 002 is a 15 day code from banned miiverse hackers

 

Then tell them that. Also don't forgot to show them the cartridge and maybe the bill that you got from it. However if they already checked your 3ds and don't lift ban then you used the one of the prerelease versions since nintendo can see that.
