New ban tools might be available for Nintendo & developers

[Ondrashek06]

If you visit https://bmas.mng.nintendo.net (something called a "Ban MAnagement System"), you'll find a notice that BMAS has been discontinued and to use a new, upgraded version instead.

Of course, I do not have the account required to log in to those panels so I can't say what changed (except the removal of 3DS/WiiU tools like stated), but Nintendo might now have updated tools to detect and ban consoles.

This wasn't there before the Nintendo Network shut down, so it's a relatively new thing.

It's not. That's not what it means.

BMAS is a tool for third party developers to ban users from their games, it has nothing to do with console bans.

Cool, but what about unban tools? You know, the ones we really care about.
