This was originally publicized by Playstation Underground, and now Sony has bit the bullet and confirmed it."

    Slashdot? Nintentrolls? That's like saying the media is biased to the left.

    This is an important story for the slashdot world. People here love video games, and they spend a LOT of time on them. A bug like this ruins much more than one game, it can ruin every game you play. Even people who could be described as "Nintentrolls" (I'm proud to be one of them) know that demo discs are not going to be tested to the same extent as an actual game.

    So make sure people know, and save them grief. I say "Thank you Slashdot for news we can use!"
