It's way worse now. I was in the process of trying to use my PC to snag all the USA releases that were still available and I think Nintendo is actively updating EVERY game on the eShop to now require proper authentication. Even random crap like "Family Bowling 3D" won't download now. Easy days are over, folks.
I tried to download a gba and nes virtual console games with no dice. Looks like Nintendo finally did their homework.

Sure, it's just making sure I don't download garbage CIA files. CDN downloads were easy, fast, and reliable.

You're right, Nintendo blocked a total of 2852 titles now. See the updated list at https://pastebin.com/68T0brhj .

Wait. Does this mean we need to be careful with previously downloaded games too?
No.... this was said a thousand times: This ONLY affects CDN downloads, NOT installing through CIAs, NOT online play and NOT already installed games.

Okay.
You really did not have to be rude.
When you see something like authentication, it can mean ANYTHING. It could have meant checking if games being accessed on a device are legit. You never know. Ninety could have e backdoor implemented something like that.
Honestly, i rather ask and answer a question several times because of how something is now worded different and safe, than play it fast and loose. I get that it can be an inconvenience, but people are worried.

It just affects CDN downloaded stuff, due to the change in NIM in 11.8.

Was not my intention, sorry.You really did not have to be rude.
Took them a while to patch it though. There are still other ways to pirate stuff. It just takes a couple or more steps to get it.
All they took from us is convenience.

Its okay. I get that it can be frustrating. I answer the same questions every day at work. (As in same asked questions over and over).
I'm not mad at you. I am sorry too.
I called this in another topic. Essentially CDN apps would become worthless, though I expected it to be slower. I assumed they would start incrementally rolling out the checks after the initial protection on their first-party titles.
I'm not sure how it affects PC-based ones such as Villain3DS, but even if it works for now (assuming you have a titlekeys list) it wouldn't take much extra time to fix.
I guess Nintendo finally hired some people who know cyber security.
