Is there something I have to do before linking my pnid to my wii u? I followed the directions on the website.

hearty crag
#

ok, may have figured out what the issue is; i used the same email from my nnid for my pnid

#

however, idk how to delete my pnid

#

since i can't edit details on the website and can't find a delete account button

#

#

i used the same email

#

it’s if you have the same account name

#

i recommend using the homebrew method (if you can) if you keep having issues as i haven’t had a single one using it for a few years now

hearty crag
#

i found out thro a tutorial vid lol

lusty palm
#

don’t watch video guides they could be out of date or skip some steps

hearty crag
#

i don't mind deleting my account since i justmade it

lusty palm
#

it’s not necessary though

hearty crag
#

oh yeah i used the guide

lusty palm
#

i thought you said you used a video?

hearty crag
#

i used the guide first

#

but just used the vid to possibiliy find out what i did wrong

lusty palm
#

also are you sure your connecting to pretendo?

hearty crag
#

also have a diff user than my nnid

lusty palm
#

can you make sure (i haven’t used hackles so i’m not sure

lusty palm
hearty crag
#

but right now I'm not hacking my wii u, actually just to try out the hackless method myself to guide a friend thro so he can keep playing splatoon 1 or whatever online services he wants to continue playing. he has a disability that makes him not super good with tech. i don't want him not being good with tech force him to stop playing splatoon 1 or online services he wants to play. /g

#

what seem to be the issue

#

i use hackless method for my other wiiu coz bored to upgrade from tiramisu

hearty crag
#

It just doesn't recognize the account

#

I followed the online guide all the way thro too

elder heart
#

have you tried putting your internet back ? also is your internet wps ?

hearty crag
#

Altho, i did find out ur email has to be different from ur nnid as well

elder heart
#

actually

elder heart
#

i use the same email for nnid and pnid

#

and login without issue :))

hearty crag
#

Oooh

elder heart
#

it's not the email that have to be different

#

it's the username

#

as example

#

on nintendo network my username was Katsu_Maki_69
i can't putthe same username on pnid or it will mess up and not work

#

that why my pnid is KatsuMaki or KatsuYoutube now

#

also wps is a type of connection for wireless internet

#

someone had an issue coz their wiiu was connected to the wifi using wps connection

#

u can check that in the internet connection settings on the wiiu settings

#

you can change it to something else aswell

elder heart
#

open system settings

#

go in internet settings

#

click X

#

go to your main connection

#

there should be a wii wiiu logo next to it

#

go to edit or modify

#

and there should be something called connection type i believe ?

hearty crag
#

OOOH

elder heart
#

and then there a bunch of connection type like wpaes or something

#

u know what

hearty crag
#

Ok ik for connection types, u press y

elder heart
#

lemme turn on my wiiu

hearty crag
#

OMG THIS WAS HELPFUL TY!!!!

#

Now.... the moment of truth

#

..... that's odd.....

#

It's STILL not working?!?!?!

#

I followed the vid u made exactly

elder heart
#

What seems to be the error that show up ?

hearty crag
#

Lemme do it again to show

#

I also made sure i typed the password correctly too

#

Typed it slow to see what i was typing

elder heart
#

Have you tried making a new pnid ?

#

Directly on the console

hearty crag
#

Nope

#

#

It's super late for me LMAO

#

reef blaze
elder heart
#

hearty crag
#

Imma attempt again if u awake in ur timezone heheh

elder heart
#

It mean have u tried making a new account

hearty crag
#

Oooh ok

#

Just wanted to make that clear

#

So on the wii u, we make a new pnid like we would on a nnid?

elder heart
#

Ye u can try this one

hearty crag
#

Btw, would I look sus if i have an identical mii and bday?

elder heart
#

No

hearty crag
#

@elder heart Heyo, so I made a new account directly on the wii u, so now what?

#

And I'm sorry if I keep asking this, I'm completely new to pretendo and clueless lol, but we were basically following the same steps to make another nnid right?

hearty crag
#

or anyone who's <@&1228132296259797093> knows heheh

elder heart
#

Can u try opening a game

#

To see

hearty crag
#

oki

hearty crag
#

I was abouta tell u it still doesn't work, but just saw in the announcements splatoon 1 servers r going under maintenance LOL

#

I shall wait then?

#

I don't have access to my other online wii u games right now

hearty crag
#

By any chance, can we go to the eshop with sssl?

#

I wanna check out online services with another game i've/my bro has purchased in the past

#

Also, I tried Dr. Luigi's online services

nocturne sierra
#

I wouldn't do this. Pretendo in general acts weird around services dependent on checking user data

hearty crag
#

oooh

#

go to the eshop?

nocturne sierra
#

dont go to any software that pretendo supports, especially the eshop

#

At least until someone else clarifies further

hearty crag
#

so

#

don't use pretendo? /genq

#

or the just the sssl method?

nocturne sierra
#

dont open the eshop while on pretendo

#

Feel free to play any of the supported games (listed on the website's progress page)

#

Im not too familiar with SSSL sadly bc its new so 🥲 best of luck

hearty crag
#

heheh danke 🇩🇪

#

but yeah, my wii u isn't hacked yet

hearty crag
north bronze
hearty crag
#

oooh

hearty crag
#

Btw one question

#

is anyone able to play splatoon right now?

#

with the server matinance

storm lance
#

pretty sure there isnt any maintenance going on today

#

the last splatoon maintenance was like 2 days ago

hearty crag
#

Oooh ok

#

Hmmm

#

Lemme try going into sploon again heheh

#

Oki

#

Made a new account directly on the wii u like u would with a nnid

#

It still ain't recognizing a pnid

forest ledge
#

Hopefully your ISP didn't block the DNS server cring

hearty crag
#

How would I check for that?

#

Btw if it helps, here's the error code that popped up

forest ledge
#

Well, first lets make sure your using the correct DNS, primary DNS should be 88.198.140.154 and secondary should be ether 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1

hearty crag
#

Yup 👍

forest ledge
#

Does the connection test pass?

hearty crag
forest ledge
#

Ok so you should be connected to pretendo, try-relogging in to your PNID

hearty crag
#

Oki

#

Btw, do u mean like resetting the wii u or going to switch user and re-entering the password? Or do u mean unlinking the pnid to the user and then linking it again?

forest ledge
#

Switching user

#

actually i should check myself if splatoon server's are up myself, i run modded but i can easily switch to SSSL

hearty crag
#

Oooh ok

#

Danke :3 🇩🇪

#

Same error occurred

forest ledge
#

Ok i'll log on myself and see if it's up, would help if i actully had save data on my pretendo account, whoops, i'll transfer my NNID save to my PNID later, for now i need to just test

#

Well shit, SSSL is working fine for me, ok real quick question what error are you receiving?

hearty crag
forest ledge
#

AH, should have known, ok this is actully simple, go into system settings, then data management, then find splatoon and delete its shared save data

#

Fyi shared save data won't effect your inkling's data and stuff, it's data used for maps and modes

elder heart
#

I deleted shared save data but gonna see if thie fixed

forest ledge
#

If it's error code 104-2210 then yeah delete it, if it's something else then i got nothing

elder heart
#

Restarting a few time

hearty crag
#

Error still occuring

forest ledge
#

Strange

hearty crag
# forest ledge Strange

Btw, not sure if u caught up with the previous chat from ppl trying to help me, but rn I made an account directly on the wii u

#

Cuz my wii u isn't recognizing my pnid i made on the website

forest ledge
#

Can you log into the website with that account?

hearty crag
#

Lemme see

#

Nope

forest ledge
#

the account server must be having a beating atm, damn

hearty crag
#

Dang

#

Oh uh

#

I was also told making an account directly on the wii u, I'm following the same steps I would to make a nnid

#

I'm autistic and at times can take things literally, so i think i legit made another nnid and not a new pnid????

forest ledge
#

Maybe?

#

Also a fellow autistic user spotted

hearty crag
#

🤝 autism solitary

#

@elder heart were u able to log into splatoon?
