Nintendo Confirms X & Y Save Bug

[baratron]

An update to our previous news story about the Lumiose City Save Bug. This bug has now been confirmed by Nintendo. They state "In some rare cases, if the player saves the game in certain areas of Lumiose City, then ends the game, the controls will not respond when the saved game is reloaded."

A map has been provided showing the area which you should not save in, and we have copied it below for your reference.

Nintendo also state "We are preparing an application to recover saved game data for players whom this has happened to. This will be made available to download from Nintendo eShop as soon as possible."

This seems to imply that they don't intend to patch the issue, but only make an application to fix things when it occurs. Strange.

I was wrong

I just avoid saving in that city altogether anyway, just to be safe xD

While I'm only planning on saving in Lumiose City while I'm indoors, I'm planning on getting the recovery app just in case

When are they going to fix this? This is going to be a huuuuuge problem.
