I don't have the game, so I cannot help, but I have to ask.

When you first started the game, and you couldn't save right away....

Why didn't you just return it and get a new copy? Clearly this is a bug, and I know Gamestop is not assinine about returning defective copies of games.

I've heard of this glitch once before. I think some copies of the game are just messed up...

Try returning it. If that doesn't work, I'm sorry.

You're going to kill your DS.

I've heard it's a bug as well. Whether it's triggered by something in the game, or if it's just certain copies of the game, I don't know.

Eh, I haven't had much of a problem with it, and I hardly turned it off at all when playing the import. It goes to sleep if you close it and stays in that state quite a while. Actually, my DS is probably still on even though I haven't touched it in three weeks at least. I'll have to check when I get home.

Well, I suppose it makes it more interesting if you can't die.

There are only a couple of locations where you can't save, and those are major locales. Otherwise, if you really can't save in normal screens, then it's some sort of bug. I've had no problems with saving, so it might just be some copies of the game.

...I think it's best if you cut it off and try to return the game. Or just start over and see if the bug is there. KF

You haven't turned off your DS in over a month? Wow, those must be some high tech batteries....

You can plug it into the wall. It's not JUST battery powered. Still, that might do a number on the electric bill.

Well, any real gaming unit can be plugged into the wall, but no one said anything about having an adapter to keep it running.

Yeah, it might increase it by about 25 cents at the end of the month, tops.

The DS doesn't consume very much energy. And when it's closed (in 'sleep' mode) without turning the game off, it consumes almost zero energy. KF

Wow ive never heard of that, ive had no problem with my game. but its bad for your ds being turned on 24/7 i think you oughtta return it and get a replacement. you will have to start again but at least you dont have to keep it plugged in and worry about dieing so much.

Now that I think about it, I've had some intermittent troubles with that function that keeps you from saving myself.

My end-of-the-final-dungeon save is not quite at the end of the dungeon, because the save-blocking function initializes (seemingly at random) in the 4 towers section. I have loaded that save a few times since completing the game and it's been a little bit different every time. Once the save-blocking was off, and I was able to advance my save. Other times I couldn't save, warp, or even walk out of the dungeon.

Go to the systems screen and select save from there. Morons

Post by **GhaleonOne** » Wed Feb 22, 2006 8:33 am

Or perhaps instead of insulting people, you might pay attention and realize there is actually a bug in select copies of the game that keep people from saving. Make insults like that again and you'll find yourself temp-banned. On top of that, was there really any point in reviving a 2 month old thread to insult someone? I'd say you're the moron for not bothering to read the rules before posting. Consider that an official warning.

All right! I was a little harsh calling you lot morons! But honestly, you do go to the main menu, select system, and you will see a save option from there!

Post by **GhaleonOne** » Wed Feb 22, 2006 4:58 pm

Yes, and most people can figure that out. Again though, the problem isn't finding the save feature within the menu system. Some people have defective copies that bugs out and won't let them save.

If you had you read the previous thread, you would know that the issue is with a bug in the game that disables the save menu.

If you're not going to read any posts here, and just revive old threads to call people names, then we don't want you here. If you wish to contribute something to these forums, though, then by all means, go right on ahead. KF
