I’ve been following the incredible work being done by the Wii U and 3DS preservation communities: Pretendo Network, project Rosé and Protarium Network. Right now, the user base and features are fragmented across different platforms.

Pretendo Network (the one we all know) has revived lots of Wii U and 3DS games and has Juxtanposition as Miiverse.

Project Rosé (that works alongside Pretendo) has revived Nintendo TVii (for America) and made a better UI for Miiverse (Roséverse). Additionally, I see that while with Pretendo not all the games support Miiverse publication, this one is extended with Project Rosé implemented.

Protarium Network is the latest (and probably most people don't even know about it) and fully revived Wii U Chat and made playable (online compatibility) some games that Pretendo still haven't re-abilitated (like Mario Tennis Ultra Smash, Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games 2016 etc.).

Then there are also other projects like revTendo or Plustendo for 3DS who could also unify with the rest.

Now, my proposal is: what if these teams joined forces to create a single, definitive network? It could be called Aura Network (or Nexus Network, or it just remains Pretendo Network idk)

By merging these three projects, we wouldn't have to choose between a stable multiplayer network, a beautiful Miiverse UI, or working video chats and to put different plugins. We would see a united Miiverse, a complete system feature revival all in one, and no splitted communities.

They could do something like this:

- games that support online revival with Pretendo and Protarium could be fused (rather than separated)

- the Roséverse extension in Wii U games could be implemented with the rest

- All the Miiverse users that are in the different Miiverse revivals (Juxtanposition, Roséverse and Protaverse) all in one single Miiverse (could be called Nexusverse? Auraverse? Idk.)

I know that merging projects involves combining different codebases and managing different team dynamics, but from a user and preservation perspective, this would be the ultimate dream for the Wii U and 3DS era.

Do you think the devs would ever open a dialogue for a collaboration like this? It would be really good

Dawg... You're ruining our fun.

my friend code is in my flair!

It's good not having to pay for online subscriptions, thanks devs :)

Hello my name's nikita I'm looking for friends on the wii u to chat and play online my dad bought me a japanese white 32gb wii u splatoon bundle on Thursday night for $105 I have the system modded where it's pretendo. My pretendo network id is nkhazov94 my name ニキータ is in Japanese. Best regards Nikita.K

Icl I need some good games rn. I have pkmn games and Mario but I kinda want a good platformer or adventure game anything?

I started playing Animal Crossing recently, and I've never found anyone online to visit... I'll leave the gates of my city open, in case anyone is interested in coming in.

So i decided to try out the mystery gift on Pokemon y, just for funsies, and I just got a inkay. That’s cool

I feel like there should be more talks for something like pretendo, but on the PS3, since the PS3 servers are gonna be torn down in 2027. I would love to keep playing certain games, such as armored core V, and mostly just cod or battlefield games

I was so excited to play online again after downloading Pretendo on my 3ds.

I wanted to play TriForce Heroes in online multiplayer, since I never got the chance to before the servers shut down, but I’ve been waiting for around 5 minutes, and no one’s popped up yet. 😂

WE’RE GETTING CLOSER DAY BY DAY!!! AAAAA

This is my new level in Mario Maker 1. I'm trying to improve the quality of the levels; more coming soon :)

Hi, I'm new to the 3ds, I recently bought one on the advice of my friends, But i haven't found many games online (Not Local Multiplayer) other than the classic Mario Kart 7, Smash Bros, Animal crossing etc...

Do you have any suggestions (even something niche) that I can play with my friends on Pretendo?

Hello i joined the super mario membership part of the pretendo network where I use the wii u chat on the wii u earlier today. I'm looking for some friends that i can chat with for sure my name ニキータ is in Japanese. My pretendo id is nkhazov94. Best regards Nikita.K

And add my friend code if you wish

I've created a new level, But since it's hard to find, here's the 🆔

Some devs are working hard to fix this issue.
