I’ve had Nimbus on my 2DS for a while and finally setup my Pretendo account on PC tonight. I tried to follow the steps that I found here https://www.reddit.com/r/3dspiracy/comments/1c057h0/pretendo_setup_guide_for_3ds2ds_consoles_detailed/ but now when I try to log into my pretendo account on the 2DS through the NNID page, it says that my password is incorrect (I know it’s not).
Do I need to start all over? How do I remove my PNID from the 2DS?
Did you have an NNID linked with the same username before setting up Pretendo?
nope, i created a unique username for Pretendo. It was too long, so I wasn’t able to add the -pretendo like the instructions state, though as of an update from 2 months ago it says that’s now optional.
I did use the same email for both, I believe. (I’ve had my NNID for a long time and lost track of which email it’s linked to).
When I finished the setup on my 2DS, I did get a confirmation email from Pretendo.
The first, issue is you followed reddit. Instead of the source, where pretendo or nimbus cfw is released. Because, 3rd part sites tend to skip or leave out details. There a good chance you didnt setup your sd card propperly.
From my experience on wii u. Using tarimasu causes pretendo not to work as well nintendo based services. If you have different cfw installed. If you can use a app to swap cfw. Id recommend doing that.
I think the flipnote hatena methoid was the best way to get into one cfw for the longest time. Im not sure what cfw was popular back in 2017 so, i couldnt tell you the name of the cfw.
But, there is a chance the nimbus cfw has some issues connecting to pretendo.
Could you link to the source directions for 3DS?
never mind - it worked! I just needed to reset the password from my 3ds. I don’t think the special characters were working
