Inkay - Aroma patches for Pretendo

Pretendo network logo

Inkay is an Aroma/WUPS plugin that patches various Nintendo Network URLs on a Wii U to use Pretendo Network instead. It also (for the time being) bypasses SSL verification in most cases. It redirects Nintendo Network in:

  • IOSU-side connections (Friends, SpotPass, accounts etc.)
  • Account Settings
  • NNCS
  • Nintendo eShop
  • Miiverse (in-game)
  • Miiverse applet

Inkay also includes game-specific patches to add extra features:

  • Modpack-specific matchmaking for global, regional rooms (by simulating extra DLC) - Mario Kart 8
  • P2P port override for better connection stability (if you port forward) - Minecraft: Wii U Edition

Dependencies

Inkay is only supported on the release version of Aroma configured for autoboot/coldboot. Other configurations (specifically lacking coldboot) may cause issues with SpotPass.

Safety

Inkay's patches are all temporary, and only applied in-memory without modifying your console. The SSL patch, while also temporary, could reduce the overall security of your console while active - this is because it no longer checks if a server is verified. However, this does not apply to the Internet Browser, where SSL still works as expected.
