Pokemon Sun and Moon players getting permanently banned by Nintendo

[vayanui8]

One is a console ban, the other is an NNID ban.

Which is which?

My guess, it is temporary if it is your first ban.

I really hope so

No, but I hurried over to my console to uninstall the game. Don't know if I should even flick the wireless switch on right now.

Did you uninstall the ticket as well?

What if one downloaded .3ds (well, .3dz with private headers) dumps from that iso site instead of CIAs? I played online with these, but luckily the console is not banned.

Also apparently there is a fix for it

Yeah. I wonder if my other apps are safe though.

If it is a hardware ban, i don't think this will fix it.

 

[DeoNaught]

wait what if its because your all using the same Header?
probly not though

Probably, as long as there aren't any other early leak games

Cia's do not have headers, only .3ds

002-0102 = console
002-2812 = NNID

002-0102 = console
002-2812 = NNID

Looks like I've just got an NNID ban then

I did not know that.

You sure? You get the console ban error when you check the Friend List, and only a few other places I think.

 

[The Catboy]

This thread is misleading because there's no confirmed source to say this is a perma ban. Most have reported this error code being a 15 day ban.

well fuck, I assumed you would only get 1 ban message, not multiple types

 

[Aletron9000]

Nothing on friend list, eshop, etc. i might be clear

Slowly recovering from shock from a few posts ago

No sleep tonight

I think the way it works is that it shows you the NNID ban error when you access things that use the MINT applet, and thus need NNID access, and it shows you the console ban error when you access anything else which needs Nintendo server access.

Lmao, it's their own fault for going online

Agreed, it is about time Nintendo started banning hacked consoles. If you want to play online do it legit.

While a good portion of people who play online with hacked consoles play with hacked Pokemon, not all do.

If people want to play online they shouldn't be using a hacked console anyway. Cart and legit firmware is the way to go. It's funny that people here that have a hacked console actually went and called Nintendo about the ban. WTF the world is doomed.

It's not because of the Pokémon, Nintendo could not care less. Pokemon tournaments are full of PkHex'ed Pokemon anyway, and they pass all checks.

The issue is when you use modified firmware/software to pirate games.
