Splatoon connection problem

I’ve been trying to play Splatoon on my Wii U console, but unfortunately, It keeps on asking me to connect to the internet and receive the latest News data. When I select Don’t Receive, the game takes me back to Inkopolis Plaza. When I click Receive, the game loads for a few seconds and then it gives me the Error Code 104-2210. Please tell me a solution to fix this. My Wii U console uses the SSSL version of Pretendo Network, and I don’t want to risk bricking it with homebrew.

I do you have a specific error code I could use to help?

Yes, SSSL and BOSS (the server that handles Splatoon news data) are having issues. This is known.

There is no ETA for a fix regarding SSSL and BOSS.

Message

Cause

This error is related to your downloaded BOSS (SpotPass) data for the game you are playing. Either the content is missing or downloaded incorrectly. Most often seen in Splatoon.

Solution

  • Review the Wii U installation guide. Ensure that you have installed Nimble and that the Aroma environment it is installed in is set to auto-boot. Otherwise Nimble may not start in time to patch the policylist request, and all BOSS data will fail to download.
  • If Nimble is installed and working, delete your games shared save data. This data typically contains the downloaded SpotPass content, triggering it to be redownloaded

If you have not yet connected to Pretendo, please follow the instructions here to get started.

If you are still unable to connect, please request to speak to a moderator in the Discord server.

Should now be resolved
