Heh, at least your car wasn't broken into and your memory card stolen the day you transferred all your pokemon to Box... =P  that really pissed me off.

Heh, I stopped lending out my 64 games for this reason. You see, I used to really like Diddy Kong Racing, and I ended up playing it for a few hours every day. After a year ot two I started sending my scores into magazines and I was pretty happy when my name was featured at the top of a chart. During the next holiday I was going away for a while so I lent out all my games, and when I got them back my precious DKR game had been wiped. They deleted the actual scores as well, not just one of the adventure mode files (which I left free for them.)

People are retarded, and I only lend out games that I know can't be deleted.
Namely, games that are on discs and have a memory card.

Kids? What about uncles? I let my uncle play on my GBC with Pokemon Silver in it and start over. I said to him "Whatever you do, DON'T SAVE! Don't even come near that word." I just completed the league at that moment BTW. So when he played I was all shaky and stuff because I knew what was gonna happen... HE SAVED!!! NOOOOOOOOO!!! Well now that would mean nothin to me but back then that was the first RPG that I played (well I played Earthbound before that but I was kinda too young understand all that...) and I was so proud of myself that I completed the league.

I had a PS2 user delete my Burnout 2 save after I completed the standard championship (haven't bothered with the custom championship, playing obstacle course got boring after the first few races) because he was so used to the big button with all the markings that common sense knows as "yes" meaning "no". I wonder who was the idiot at Sony who thought "Hm, a big cross? That can only mean yes, right? And a circle is the common symbol for no?". Hell, I wonder what kinds of lunatics they hired to design every single element of the PS2, from the controler to the case, the processor and the interface, everything is built in the most idiotic way possible!
Luckily I made backups of all the saves I took to that LAN party so I could restore it. No way in hell I'd subject myself to Burnout 2 again.

Well,  I had to. My cousin doesn't have any system and he was playing it when he came over, but he switched the Gamecube on without a disc. He got to the memory screen eventually, and ended up deleting my Sunshine, Burnout 2 and Metroid files. I had already finished SMS & MP, but I was halfway through the custom series for Burnout - hadn't played it for about 7 months. The torture that I had to go through to repeat all those uneventful challenges that you had to get first place in every single race was unbearable. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, much less KDR.

Thats true..I'm constantly surprised how quickly kids catch on to video games, and how they sometimes can see something in the game that you just don't have the POV to, and it's so simple at that (eg a puzzle)

hahaha this is funny. A lovely virus recently crashed my old comp and I lost every single saved game, it was horrible >_< at least now I can laugh about it, Ill miss my necro from Diablo 2, but Im in my way to recover it. My Nintendo games on the other hand have never been erased, I still have the original saved game of the first time I finished OoT.

my younger cousin somehow managed to crack the casing of my copy of Zelda A Link to the Past (He either stepped on it, or set something on it.) and I had to fool around with the cartridge for a while just to get it to work again.  I got another copy, that is still in the shrink wrap because I didn't have to open it, but everything I had on my orginal copy was deleted.  It was then that I decided to never loan out my games to him again.

It sucks when someone wipes your games or memory card.
The worst I had was when my little brother  deleted my Mario party 4, rachet and clank and Luigis mansion (I had A rank) >=(

I let a little 5 year old play Wario Ware and she was pulling stuff off that I've never seen before. Who knew that you could curve the bowling ball in the ten pin bowling micro game?

I left my SP and several games outside once. Some kids took it. I had to pay another kid $20 bucks to get it back. Turns out he was the one that took it, and he hadn't played it. His MOM was playing it for a bit. (Cue sad music)

Casualties:
My Mario Bros: Superstar Saga save (I was on the last battle!!!). The thing is, the other two save slots were free. But no, the kid's mom DELETED MINE!
Pokemon Blue: I had almost everything in this. Level 100 Blastoise and others, gone.
Pokemon Gold: Not quite as far, three level 50s. Poof. I find two pidgies instead.
Rayman Advance: All gone. I wasn't far anyway.
Megaman Battle Network 2 barely made it.
LoZ:LttP got toally wiped. All done except four swords.

What was wrong with the kid's mom?  The kid suddenly shows up with $300 in a system and games and she just starts playing, no questions asked?  Beat your kid, damnit!

Oh yeah I once started up my Harest Moon: Friends of Mineral town to find that my 100+ hours of gameplay spent on my game on the seocond year, on the verge of getting a girl to marry me and generally running a aweosme farm was totally gone. The fuckign kid only played 1 day of it and got bored because he's weak. Dickhead. Took it while I was sleeping too. Weak.
