1 If you want to change your PNID information using a Nintendo 3DS or the website (such as your country/DOB), you must perform it on a console when creating a PNID or use Account Settings on a Wii U.
2 Juxtaposition is Pretendo's Miiverse replacement.

To use or play anything marked as “Tester-Only”, you will need to upgrade your Pretendo account.

Games and services that will remain unsupported indefinitely

Game/Service Platform Reason
Call of Duty: Black Ops II Wii U Used 3rd party (Activision) servers instead of solely Nintendo Network.

Nintendo TVii Wii U “We have no plans to support TVii at this time.” -Jon
Wii Karaoke U Wii U Copyright issues with songs.

MKTV YouTube uploads Wii U Uses Google APIs (Free, but likely annoying)

Additional FAQ

"Will xxxx be supported?"

All games and services that used solely Nintendo Network will eventually be supported. Support for games that didn't solely use Nintendo Network will not be provided until further notice.

"Do you know when xxxx will release? Is there an estimated timeframe to when it will be complete?"

No games or services will ever be given estimated release dates unless they are actively being developed/tested and are preparing to be released to either the testers or the public.

"When will [game] community be added to Juxtaposition?"

See the first two answers.

"When will Juxtaposition on Old Nintendo 3DS be fixed?"

See the first two answers.

"I can't afford to donate."

Everything will be completely free eventually, however, so if you have no rush, you can always wait until it's out of testing and available to the public servers :) ~@maisiemarlowe

"Will Juxtaposition or Account Settings be supported by SSSL?"

No. It is highly recommended that your mod your console for the best experience while using Pretendo, and as a bonus you get to use all the other cool things a modded Wii U has to offer!

"Will the Nintendo 3DS ever support SSSL?"

No. There is no known SSL exploit on the Nintendo 3DS/2DS at this time and there likely will not be one found in the future (although it is possible, don't get your hopes up).

"Will other consoles be supported? Like the Nintendo Switch when it shuts down?"

First of all, no, Pretendo does not plan to support the Nintendo Switch or any other console at this time. Second of all, Nintendo Switch Online services likely will not shut down for a very long time.

"Will [game that never had online support] be supported?"

No. If it never had support for any online features whatsoever, then it is out of scope for Pretendo.

"What's taking them so long?" "Hurry up!" "I'm very impatient!!"

Please remember that Pretendo is a free service and a passion project, not a company. Jon, the owner of Pretendo, is the only full-time developer. Other developers make contributions out of their own free time and of their own will. Donating isn't purchasing a service; it is showing your support for the project. Perks and benefits are to encourage people to donate and reward existing donators. Pretendo is one of the most difficult and ambitious modding projects ever undertaken and was originally intended to only be a Super Mario Maker (Wii U) and Miiverse replacement.
