I haven't started playing my e-shop copy of the game yet, and was wondering about this infamous bug where saving in puzzle sections may corrupt save data. I was wondering if anyone has tested this bug on the 3DS e-shop version of the game. 

Well I can confirm it happens in the boxed version since it happened to me, 17 hours in. Saved my game during an escape sequence in the PEC room (didn't do any research). I was pretty annoyed, but my excuse to play more of this game. I'm down. Literally played another 22 hours, game is sooo good, I would say I like it more than the originsal.

This just happened to me, and as much as I liked it, fuck scrolling through half of the game's dialogue and doing the puzzles again. I'm gonna see if I can get a refund or something. Jesus christ.
