Nintendo is also preparing a program for those who have their Wii's connected to the internet, which will enable users to be able repair the save file from home. Details on the release and how to use this program will be announced on the Nintendo Australia website once they have a confirmed date of release.

I actually wonder if it's because they've been increasing worldwide releases. In the past, stuff like this would have been caught somewhere between the Japanese and international releases and we probably wouldn't have heard about it.

Just some random guy on the internet who has a different opinion of games than you.

There's also the fact that games have become much more complex over the past decade as well.

Not to say that it excuses this odd bug, but... just sayin'...
