I installed pretendo yesterday,
All looks good (showing miiplaza messages...).
I tried MK8 yesterday and that worked fine but since i updated MK8 it still won't connect to the mk8 online seevers anymore.

i also installed other games like splatoon and smash bros (also with updates) but non seems to connect online.

Does pretendo only works without game updates?

Maybe this is because i still have the nintendo servers blocked?
Or is it safe to use my Wiiu again without the blocked Nintendo servers now that they are offline and just connect to the internet?

Ty!

UPDATE: Got in MK8 server now, Seems to be an pretendo server issue.

If u get error 101-0502 just keep trying to go online , after 5times i just got online with pokken and mk8.

UPDATE2: for splatoon : if u get error 104-2210 u need to go to your network settings and change the dns settings to 088.198.140.154 and secondary dns to 8.8.8.8

Install inkay:
Try and see if inkay is up to date (Inkay: https://github.com/PretendoNetwork/Inkay/releases/tag/v2.4.0 goes in \wiiu\environments\aroma\plugins)
DON'T SKIP THIS Check if you have Nimble (30_nimble.rpx) in the right place, if you don't, get it here: https://github.com/PretendoNetwork/Nimble/releases/tag/v3 (goes in \wiiu\environments\aroma\modules\setup)
Try deleting shared save data (system settings -> data management -> select your storage device -> splatoon -> Delete shared save data)
Try and unregister boss tasks (Open the aroma menu (L + DPAD down + Select), click inkay, then Boss settings, and unregister boss tasks)

Just give it a go man! Its easy to install. Had to switch from turamisu to aroma cfw but went super smooth while following youtube vids same goes for pretendo.
FunkyScott47 has great vids on youtube 👌

@darky2003 Pretendo works with updated games just fine. Did you create a new user? Cause your old one most likely is linked to a Nintendo Network ID, not to a Pretendo Network ID (Miiverse works a bit different so you receive these Wara Wara Plaza messages even then).

Also I think Pretendo registration is still closed thanks to the massive inrush of new users-

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
