Account linking now works on consoles with a blanked PRODINFO
If your console has a blanked PRODINFO — common on emuMMC and "incognito" setups — linking a
Nintendo Account failed with error 0x0000167B on ssl:s. There was no way around it from
Prelude. This release fixes that.
A new Account Link entry in the main menu installs and configures the network_mitm v2
system module, which provides a Client-PKI (device certificate) fallback for the system titles
involved in account linking. Prelude checks your console and tells you whether you need it:
- Recommended for this console (blanked identity detected)
- Not needed (valid factory certificates detected)
It is a toggle. You can turn it off from the same screen at any time, and consoles with valid
factory certificates do not need it at all — nothing changes for them.
Also in this release
- The Account Link screen is available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French and Chinese.
- Builds now publish
nextendo.nroas a CI artifact.
Credits
The network_mitm v2 system module and the account-link fallback it is built on are the work of
W-874 (network_mitm). This release integrates that
work into Prelude — full credit for the fix goes to them.
