MK8 routing fix
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was failing to start online on consoles whose hosts file pointed at a secondary server: the game's secure-server hostname (g2b309e01-lp1.s.n.srv.nintendo.net) resolved to the selected server, which has zero players and no game infrastructure behind the secure port.
This release pins MK8's hosts line to the production IP (164.132.111.120) where the actual MK8 player base is served.
The explicit MK8 line is emitted after the g2* wildcard so that Atmosphere's last-matching-line-wins rule keeps every other game (ACNH, SSBU, Strikers) on the currently selected server while MK8 goes straight to production.
How to get it
- Download
nextendo.nroand replace the one on your SD card (or let the in-app updater fetch it). - Re-run Prelude once so the hosts files (
atmosphere/hosts/sysmmc.txt/emummc.txt) are regenerated with the new routing.
Notes
- Version bumped from 3.0.5 to 3.0.6 (build 40).
