So I've been having problems connecting to 'the website'. I've reinstalled CIAngel and Freeshop, but it won't fix the problem. I decided to see if 'the website' was down, but lo and behold, it... Is. It's down.

I checked isitdownorisitjustme, and it also says 'the website' is down. Did I just miss a memo or something?

Are titlekeys being blocked in the Philippines, like certain adult video sites?

Someone help me out here.

ninty finally placed a check for valid tickets which screwed the ones that everyone was using. rendering these apps useless.

nintendo has blocked all fake tickets from downloading from their CDN, you need to go back to the stone ages and download CIA's manually from other sources and install them via FBI

Well crap. Looks like it's off to the bay searching for me torrents.

What if I still want titlekeys? Like for GM9?
If you still want titlekeys, then find the IP address for that title key site. The site itself still works. It's just that the domains no longer point to the correct IP address.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

just google "that iso site" you'll find a source
Or look on Reddit. They'll post links to romzzzzz.

It is not down, I just visited the site a few minutes ago, I'll copy and paste the instrucctions to fix it but i don't know if it works with freeshop, if that's the case just use villain3ds, all downloads still work except some 20 or 30 1st party games.

Freeshop title site is still working use this method to get access.

As many of you have noticed, the Wii U USB Helper is somewhat broken right now. This is because many US DNS servers have assigned the wrong IP's to *snip*. To fix this, modify your hosts file (located in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc) by adding the following two lines:

*snip*

Edit: my recommended way to edit the hosts file is to copy it to your Desktop, edit it with Notepad there, then copy it back (replace the original)

Do not use a # before the two lines you add, or it won't do anything.

No. Some updates and DLC will still work, and that's it. Everything else has been fortified for the 3DS. Wii U is the only one to remain open.

The last remaining stronghold for ridiculously easy piracy...

Yup. Got killed earlier this week. Now you have to manually download them from a website. The torture! :P
I swear, the things Nintendo puts us through. They should be grateful we even TRY to pirate their games.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
