How could you play a game all day and not save?

>>44214003

Trying to save electricity isn't bad.

For some odd reason, my Ocarina of TIme game didn't saved.

At least not normally, I had to kill myself THEN save for the game to actually be saved.


Also once my Mom actually closed the console while it wasnt saved once. I lost the gold scale and the god tier lure because of that.

I was so mad.

Then my mom said to stop being so mad, it was only a game.

No nintendo for the next weekend, because I could only play on weekends.
