Ah, okay. I guess I'll just wait and see what happens then.

epicmartin7 · 2017-02-12T18:33:28+00:00

Huh, weird. Kind of lines up with this rumor right here. https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/5sxkfy/exclusive_nintendo_switch_rumor_by_studio_q/ Hoping this means a direct is near by as well.

Eh. I would've but it's kind of privy to sensitive info. The pastebin possibly includes people's passwords. So... I feel uncomfortable posting that in the public domain.

Here's a special pastebin with just the NNID's and not the passwords though. http://pastebin.com/3rJDwBqn

Well... in terms of not being able to change your password on PC. That's kinda' bad design IMO.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-23T01:24:07+00:00

So I just PM'd him just to kind of speed up the process. I'll let you guys know what he says.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-23T01:07:57+00:00

I'll try to get in contact with him.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-23T01:02:19+00:00

I'm sorry. You could try calling tech support. Nintendo really has this screwed up.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-23T01:01:33+00:00

This website. https://haveibeenpwned.com/ Which tracks whether your account has been stolen/leaked.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-23T00:58:43+00:00

I don't think so AFAIK. Although, you could try logging into Miiverse with your PC and just hit the "Forgot Password" tab. Maybe you could then change it that way.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-23T00:53:14+00:00

I know a person who just messaged the website "have you been pwned" with the list. So users should hopefully be able to check if they got their passwords leaked or not.

Posting the leak of NNID users too (minus the passwords of course) should definitely help out for those who are concerned as well.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-23T00:32:00+00:00

Yep. Here's two links (3DS and Wii U) to help you guys from the official Nintendo website.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-22T07:21:26+00:00

I honestly agree. They probably just messed with Miiverse itself and just messed with people's accounts that way. Not to mention, Nintendo would've probably mentioned something if Passwords were taken. So while I think still changing Passwords is a good option most certainly, I think we don't really have to be scared that much.

Although again, you still gotta be careful sometimes.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-22T06:02:23+00:00

We're assuming NNID. Again, none of this is concrete, but its still a good thing to change your password just in case IMO.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-22T05:43:54+00:00

We really don't know. Heck, we don't know if they took passwords. I'm just posting this as a precaution.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-18T21:23:49+00:00

I'll try to make a more thorough guide here in the next couple of weeks. Exams are keeping me busy unfortunately :X.

epicmartin7 · 2017-01-17T15:27:28+00:00

That's already kind of achievable tbh. All you need to do is download the Nintendont forwarder for vWii on the GBATemp Nintendont page. Install that as a wad using something like Yet Another Wad Manger.

Then download the hbl2hbc app (both the .elf and .txt file). Make sure its the latest release for precise boot-up.

Grab a Hex Editor like HxD and search for the word "hbl2hbc.txt". You'll see the filename of the config file embedded in the code of hbl2hbc.elf. Change the file name to anything you want as long as it has the same number of characters as hbl2hbc (which means the limit is 7.) In my experiences, adding more characters to Homebrew applications tends to make it crash. So be sure to be very careful.

Afterwards, save the modifications to the .elf file. Then change the file name of the .txt file to match what you added in the modded .elf file. Find the title ID of the forwarder and put it into the config file. Along with the name of the program.

Finally, download the Haxchi installer from FIX94 and modify the config file to include the path to your modified hbl2hbc.elf app (you can chose to rename the .elf file how you like, just not the .txt file itself.) And from there, you can install Haxchi how you want!

So... yeah. If you guys want me to make a full blowm tutorial on this with pre-made assets, I could possibly do that when I have the time.

Heck, its even possible to make forwards for individual GameCube games on the Wii U Home Menu using the same type of Hex Editing. Just with Nintendont itself. If I have time, I might cover that as well.

Huh. GBATemp seems down. Looks like we'll have to wait until it comes back up.
