News / Pretendo Network: Nintendo has issued a warning not to use revival servers

Nintendo has issued a warning today for people not to use the Pretendo Network as it may pose unexpected security risks.

This isn't really a big deal, but I'm sharing it over here to point out a few things since people seem to be a bit concerned whether this post will affect @pretendo or not.

• Nintendo has known about Pretendo since at least December 2023 so it isn't a new thing: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/1bejk7e/comment/kuuf06r/
• Nintendo has no interest in really trying to take Pretendo down, since they wouldn't send a tweet but they'd instead send the lawyers: https://forum.pretendo.network/t/about-this-nintendo-customer-support-tweet/9728/5?u=gamersinternatio
• We believe this is from some users contacting customer support for help with Pretendo issues: see above

Suppose I should also disclose that I'm a Pretendo staff member again in the interest of transparency.
