there's an error with my id and email. do i need to use different ones?

thorn raptor
#

your in nintendo, not in pretendo.

wanton pebble
#

no this is pretendo. i got the pretendo agreement and stuff

thorn raptor
#

try checking via nimbus app

dry crown
#

this is how pretendo would look. and they are signing up not logging in

wanton pebble
#

i did. i was having an issue where i was still signed in as my nnid until i went and checked in nimbus and clicked pretendo and then it prompted me to make a pnid in settings

dry crown
#

speaking about nnid is that the same name as your nnid.

wanton pebble
#

nope!

dry crown
#

then the only thing i can think of its taken and they could not use the name taken error

wanton pebble
#

the email should be different too, it was my dads nnid so he used his id and email

dry crown
#

the email does not need to be different just the id

wanton pebble
#

well i got the error for the email too

dry crown
#

my guess is the user name is taken. and the email showed an error because the program does not know what the error is

wanton pebble
#

just reconfirmed my info and it spat out this error which happened last time... maybe it was the fact i signed up for emails and stuff?

dry crown
#

oh

#

right. of course.

#

iirc the fix is to "Change your 3ds language to Spanish and then try again". when you make the pnid you can switch back

i feel like i have seen other fixes to this but this is the one i can actually remember working

wanton pebble
#

man :(

dry crown
#

this is what i get for using a solution i only got reminded of by reddit.

wanton pebble
#

i'll try once more in english and if it doesn't work it's a later problem

dry crown
#

you can also make a pnid on the website and just link it to the 3ds.

wanton pebble
#

i've heard you shouldn't do that as of right now cus you can't do certain things

dry crown
#

while it is true. they just recently added account settings to wiiu. and the website will also allow you to do that. when that gets added.

wanton pebble
#

another error code

dry crown
#

whats error code

wanton pebble
#

same one

dry crown
#

ah. you dont need a pnid unless you want to use miiverse.

#

3ds online does not use it for most games

wanton pebble
#

you need it for friends tho right?

dry crown
#

no.

wanton pebble
#

fr?

dry crown
#

the 3ds did not launch with nnid

#

that was added later

wanton pebble
#

so pretendo just gives you a new friend code?

dry crown
#

yeah

wanton pebble
#

neat
