Inkay - Aroma patches for Pretendo
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.
