So recently I was bored, I finished Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. I wanted to go take a trip to the past and play Pokemon Heartgold. I get my cartridge, and click on the game. Everything is alright, I see the Ho-oh flying, I press start, then, uh oh.
"The save file is corrupted. The game data has to be erased."
I'm scared. "What is all my other games are messed up?" "Does this only effect Pearl?" "Am I the only one?" So many questions pop up in my mind. I decide to turn off the game and look at my Pokemon Pearl copy. It says an error occured and the 3DS has to be powered down. I am freaking out. Thankfully, my Gen 5 and up game copies and other DS games are alright. So I decide to post this on the forums, I turn on my Pokemon Heartgold copy to write the message word to word. Everything went well, I got a full quote.
However, when I insert my Pokemon Pearl, my 3DS freezes. I hold the power button. It takes me 5 tries to turn my 3DS off. Now I am afraid to even turn my 3DS back on.
Then, I remember something. About a month ago (Before the recent system update) I got on my Pearl and Heartgold copy just fine. I was playing it with my friend. What could this mean? Did the system update do this?
I really need feedback. Thanks!
