I’ve been using “Pretendo” for a while now and I haven’t had any problems so far. I use the service on a New 2DS and a friend asked me how he could continue playing online after the servers closed, I told him about “I intend to” and he offered to put it on his console. The problem comes when I flash it and install it as I did on my console. My friend had already created his account on the page, when I try to enter his account through the console we can’t because it says that we entered the PNID wrong or something else, but we verified many times that it was correct and it won’t let us access, I for one Try, I try to access Mario Kart 7 online and it gives me error 002-0102, saying that my friend’s console was banned, and now we don’t know how we can fix that. What could we do?
use nimbus and switch to pretendo server
I use Nimbus and I already changed to the Pretendo server, that is the method I always use, and even on the Pretendo server I get those errors.
002-0102 means their 3DS is banned. If they are getting it on Pretendo then they probably used cheats on MK7 and reported on the hacker thread kn Discord
Also you don’t need a PNID for MK7
Ok, from what my friend told me, his 3D was recently given to him, the previous owner probably used cheats and didn’t tell him. In that case, if I format the console, will I be able to access it normally?
Watered? What do you mean?
Sorry, I don’t speak English, I’m using a dictionary and I got the wrong word.
Formatting the console won’t remove the ban if it cant access Miiverse. I recommend contacting a dev (ashquirky) on Discord to appeal it
Okay, I’ll do it, thank you very much.
Marked @piplupness’s reply as a solution then, since this seems to be solved.
