Title: Super Paper Mario PAL version has game-freezing bug
Post by: Deezer on September 19, 2007, 10:57:39 PM: After the agonizing wait for Super Paper Mario (http://www.themushroomkingdom.net/games/spm)'s release in Europe, it turns out that a bug still slipped by the testing team. In Chapter 2-2, talking to Mimi before picking up a key found by triggering a trap will freeze the game if you are playing in UK English, German or Spanish. Nintendo of Europe officially announced the glitch today (http://www.nintendo-europe.com/NOE/en/GB/news/article.do?elementId=5PEzUvTf6HbPNJBeSVY69gEW_UolQbT8), and will soon begin to replace game discs for free.

Are you serious? I don't have a Euro copy, though. Maybe there was only a number of defective copies.

Nope, he got it on the day of release (14^th September 2007).

Post by: Chupperson Weird on November 22, 2007, 10:48:58 AM: I think that was a universal error, especially since there isn't a video mode difference between America/Japan and Europe for DSes.
