Did you read anything beyond the first sentence?

If i'd only read the first sentence how would I know the meltdown was hillarious? I skim read everything. But yeah you can't have multiple save files (on one account) by the sounds of it.

The backup saves is interesting though, how does that work?

I don't know as I've never needed them and didn't start a second game, it's just what I read. I might take a look when I get home, but I imagine it's just like plenty of other RPGs and such these days where the autosaves cycle between "Autosave 1, Autosave 2" and so forth accompanying your main save.

Well, somehow you missed the fact that he didn't erase anything because he switched to a different game mode which has separate save files.

You get one manual save file and around 5 auto-save files. The game auto-saves every 5 to 10 minutes, generally after you do something important. The save files are like snapshots of where you were in the last 30 minutes to an hour. Every time the game saves, if there are already six files, it erases the oldest one.



I loved it when he realised that he didn't even delete the save files.



I hate people.

"Hate" is too stress inducing. I recommend just laughing whenever you feel angry, it seems to help me lol

I accidentally overwrote my 150+ hour save file on Fire Emblem Awakening

That's my fault.

If somebody overwrote my save file if I gave the game to them, that's their fault

You can't blame Nintendo when they have warnings each time you try to overwrite a save

But this is polygon so..

Fine, fine Gandhi I "dislike" people.



I must admit I'm a little surprised no one has commented on his use of spaces to cuss and insult without actually typing the words. Has anyone encountered that technique before? It's just so spineless.

I make a point to avoid insulting people (once a situation devolves to insulting you're simply wasting your time), but if you're going to insult someone have the gumption to actually use the words lol



This happened I think about two weeks ago. He got ridiculed for it. Justifiably so.



Just create another profile on the switch and play zelda with that profile..thats all you have to do.
It even ask you wich profile you gonna use to play the game...



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)
