Someone please help me. I did not shut down or remove my game cartridge or even close my 3DS while saving. I just turned on my game and BAM! It doesn't load up. Next thing I know, it says that my save data is corrupted and it asks me if I want to delete my save data. Do I have to start from scratch again? Can anyone tell me how to backup my game or let me know if I can do anything right now? Thanks to anyone and everyone for anything and everything.
 
I'm sorry that this has happened to you :( You're going to have to start afresh; sometimes games just corrupt randomly, even if you didn't do anything to it. Have you done something with your SD card?

I'm sure many members will be able to help you out when starting your town. Good luck! :)
 
I'm so sorry this happened to you! D:

There is no way to back up your game - you just have to be extremely careful. There are also only a few ways to prevent it in the future, but since you said you haven't done anything, I'm not sure what to think or say.

Good luck with your new town!
 
Really sorry to hear this :(, had you tried anything different recently like transferring data between SD cards? If you need any help starting a new town I can drop off a basket of every fruit :).
 
No, I haven't done anything with my SD card nor have I transferred any data recently, so I guess I will just have to start all over again. :(


FancyThat, thank you for your offer, but I will try to restart my town before doing anything else. I will PM you when I need the fruits. When I settle down, I will definitely repay you. :)

P.S. ZanessaGaily, I like both of the manga in your signature.

Happened to me with two towns I really wanted to keep, both on the same cart so I only use it for test runs (see what so and so's original room is, etc) but first was my first EVER town that had Merengue, Bangle, Francine.. I loved it so much. The other time I was going for all deer and had Bam, Beau, Diana, and Deirdre, but it sadly killed itself as well. I don't trust ever using it again
 
I'm sorry for your loss :(
Hopefully you can start a new town that won't corrupt, if you ever need any help feel free to talk to me.
 
This is horrible! D: I can't imagine having this happen to me. Although I don't think I'd be that upset only because I've been tempted to start all over again anyway. Haha. That would just be the push to FORCE me to do it.

Let me know when you're ready to let people into your town to help you start over. I've got a few things I'd like to donate to you. :)

No problem take your time :). I can give you some bells as well. No need for any repayment :).

I have officially deleted my save data, villagers, and town. If I knew this was going to happen, I would have given away all my villagers. :( Thanks to everyone who is making this loss a lot better. :)
