Regardless, if you're on 5.3.2 you can spoof to 5.5.0 and play (including online). TubeHax DNS only blocks the update servers.

Has there been any reports of people getting banned from online yet using spoofed firmware?

no

Nope. Nintendo doesn't know since they only check the version.bin to see if it's 5.5.0, and spoofing changes version.bin to say 5.5.0.

If u are really worried about xenoblade x and are on 5.3.2, why not dump it then load it in with loadiine?

Let me know your findings so I can add them.

The white Wii U had 4.0.0 on it. So it still seems kinda safe to look for a white Wii U until someone is experiencing something else.

Good find. This is true, but if I had to bet I'd say it'll be fine. Please report back so I can add it to the OP!

quick update
apparently the picture that the seller gave me was wrong (long story short, he has a store and when he asked pic from this employee, they sent him the old pic) and the one I got is the same as in the first post with preinstalled game
took the gamble and lucky me it's a 5.3.2 system
for those who wondering the serial number, it's FW710XXXXX

2 questions because I can't find noob thread where I can ask these questions

1. is it normal for gamepad to make clicking noise when moved? looks like there is a loose screw inside the pad, or maybe it's normal where the buttons are actually loose that they make that noise?
2. is there an PC app that can works as proxy that blocks update? I used VitaUpdateBlocker all the time on my vita without worrying that it would download updates. because most tutorials involved make changes to the router to block the URL, and unfortunately that's not an option for me

So the splatoon, mario kart 8 bundle is 5.4?

 

[TeamScriptKiddies]

no

They're currently only banning people who are caught cheating/modding online in games and that's based solely off other users reporting them. So as long as you aren't doing anything to blatantly give yourself away, you should be okay at least for now, that's my understanding anyways, although i've been out of the homebrew loop for a while for obvious reasons

That is not normal.
You can use openDNS, there are threads on the site that will tell you which update servers to block and the address for them. If you have a dynamic IP then make sure to use the openDNS desktop client to constantly update the IP in the openDNS web client.

If anyone uses OpenDNS, make sure you follow the guide in my sig TO THE "T". Also I believe there are a few more update IPs that should be blocked since I wrote it, I can't remember off the top of my head. Either I or Cyan will add them after too long most likely, if I can find them

Lucky you! Makes sense if they told you it was old stock.

1. No, that's not normal. I've had mine for almost a year now and the Game Pad is silent while being carried or waved around.

2. Set up TubeHax DNS on your Wii U for Primary DNS. I can't stress this enough. Guide near the top of the OP. I highly so not recommend OpenDNS, but if you want to take that gamble, at least do it on the Secondary DNS slot.

Also, if you REALLY want to use your computer as a proxy to block updates, there's a tutorial in the tutorials section for setting up CCProxy to block updates
