Pretendo Forums on Wii U or 3DS?

Forum Meta

Is it possible to make it so that there’s a way to use Pretendo Forums on a Wii U or 3DS?
Maybe through some homebrew program or even something that runs on the Miiverse browser? Because i think it would be kinda cool to be able to access Pretendo Forums right from the Wii U and 3DS!

Would you just want to be able to see stuff? Do you want to post? Do you want to be logged into your acc? It is possible im sure just… Possible in ten years as im sure pretendos systems isn’t really made for that like how the website is coded im sure though it could be possible at some point but also btw idk if this is in the scope of pretendo or if they would do it

I would like all three to work, and it could even automatically sign you into whatever PNID you linked to your 3DS/Wii U profile, if you have one linked.

Hopefully someone finds a way to make some Discourse client for the Wii U and 3DS, as this forum runs on Discourse.

I actually know how to code in ruby maybe in 5 years if i get started now and thats if your lucky but either way i could look and see if it would be worth it to Develop it and get some other homebrew Experts to help me out (as i don’t do homebrew :skull:)

I would have to do more research as im not the best in web design (i don’t onow jack shi-) but Would it be worth it to check out 3d web? It seems like some sort of way you could do it i know this is not just gonna get Developed on its own but still worth it to check it out! Seems like a web viewing thing and it says they plan to add pngs and other support

Can’t ever see it being something we’ll support. If you can get it running in another client or something, then that’s good for you but there’s no point trying to make the forums work on both consoles if they don’t.

Use a mobile phone or computer instead.

I would definetly use that, i already tried running pretendo forums on my switch lite but it didnt work :[

You can read posts and view user pages on both the 3DS and Wii U via the internet browser but you can’t sign in or easily navigate the forum

I would Say best bet for both would be some sort of homebrew software That Functions as basically a better browser that’s not as outdated But quite literally depending on however you do it it is quite literally just making a browser from the ground up for the 3DS and Wii U And hoping that it works good enough to run the forums Or straight up making some sort of port/Homebrew Of the discourse Systems in order to get it running
