Hello,
I saw on the forums that you could set up a pretendo ID the same way you would a normal ID on the 3Ds.

I have the new ID screen open, but I just want to confirm; can I link my existing ID, or do I need to create a new one?

I don’t want to link an existing one and screw everything up.

Thanks for the help!

Or

#

Make one on your console

#

If one doesn’t work do the other

#

Juxtaposition sign ups don’t work rn so you cannot access that for now though

modern glacier
#

Alright, perfect.

I have the screen open on my console, I just wanted to make sure bc I know hacking can be weird sometimes.
I didn’t want to brick it by being dumb lol

If you made a NAND back up while modding your 3DS, you should be fine if a brick happens. But the probability of a brick is very very low.

#

If not impossible

modern glacier
#

Ah, it said the ID was already in use, so I’ll just make a new one for Pretendo

#

Yeah I know it’s low, but I’d rather be safe than sorry

queen basin
#

Or else you’ll be pretty stuck

modern glacier
#

Oh that’s what I was asking, if I could link my previous ID

queen basin
#

And you should be fine

modern glacier
#

Alright 👍

queen basin
#

Make an account through the link above ^

modern glacier
#

Nah I got it, just misunderstood I think. Making a new one now.

queen basin
#

Then switch to Pretendo Network on nimbus if you haven’t already, go to Nintendo Network settings

#

And link the pretendo network id you’ve just made

modern glacier
#

Yeah I did switch it to Pretendo

queen basin
#

The UI will say Nintendo Network but bare with it

#

Enter the details and you will be in

modern glacier
#

Alright I set up the new ID, thanks for the help.

queen basin
#

No problem

Hi, just made a Pretendo ID on the Pretendo site, but I don't know how to link it to my 3DS. I also used the same email address and I can't change it on the site, do I have to make a new account?

queen basin
#

You’re allowed to use the same email address

#

The only thing you’re not allowed to share is the username

#

If that is the same, you’ll be in some trouble

rocky holly
#

Ok, good

queen basin
#

Yeee

rocky holly
#

How do I link my Pretendo ID to my 3DS?

#

Do I have to delete my old Nintendo ID?

#

Sorry, last time I did anything with my Nintendo ID would have been over a decade ago so I don't remember.

queen basin
#

Do you have Nimbus installed

queen basin
rocky holly
#

Yes

queen basin
#

Switch to Pretendo Network via the nimbus app

#

Go to system settings

#

Nintendo Network Settings which should be at the top of the bottom screen

#

Link an existing Nintendo Network ID

#

Put in your Pretendo Network details that you’ve created

rocky holly
#

Ok, I'll try that now.

queen basin
#

The UI won’t change but you will be connecting to Pretendo Network

rocky holly
#

right, its done, I can't change my country or dob.

#

I don't think that really matters anyway right?

queen basin
#

Everybody’s DOB is 1/1/1990

#

And are from the US

#

It doesn’t affect gameplay ❌

#

People who did the setup on 3ds or Wii U could change it

#

same for region

queen basin
#

Probably should’ve elaborated but everybody who made it via the website

#

But it really doesn’t matter

rocky holly
#

Cool, thankyou very much for your help, I'm all set up now. ^^

queen basin
#

No problem

#

Ah okay. I've been trying to update the info through the settings app and have been wondering if the error was because of my phone's hotspot or not

queen basin
#

Yeee
