022-2402 when trying to make an account

[rigid flame]

Getting error code 022-2402 when i try to make an account via the 3ds, I've got pretendo installed and swapped over, but have not been able to get the account going yet.
I went though the documentation a little too excitedly and signed up first on the website, and if i try to login with that it says its already connected to another system. Giving up on that I went to sign up via the system with the gmail period alias trick.

that trick being [email protected] and [email protected] all two different 'addresses' that go to the same mailbox, just to be clear
gives me the error code listed, website says get in touch here if it keeps happening, tried twice today about 6 hours apart

I’m having this same issue.

Apparently you have to make a PNID from the website, so I’d try that.

I tried that first, it says something to the effect of "account already connected to another device" or something like that, the verbage isnt top of my mind

"the nintendo network ID you entered is already in use. please try again"

that being Error Code: 022-2571

It worked for me, but the catch is that my NNID from before was also "WolfrikM" so i had to make a new account that WASNT that
