My game of trauma center was recently erased by my little cousin, I didnt get mad I just politely took it away from him and when he asked why I said it was broken.... *Note to self take games out then give them the system*. Any of you guys have any game erased stories?

Thank you.

That happened with Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time :(. I had completed 100% of everything in that game, from the major quests to the side quests and was pretty proud of myself. . One weekend I was camping with a friend and when I came home, my game was completely erased. Some friends of the family had come over and I can only assume they did it, which was kind of upsetting because there are three slots for people to start a new game and only the first one was even in use :(. Ever since then, I've always been very protective of my game and game systems :(.

Years later I got the Zelda pre-order bonus for my Gamecube, but I only played up to the midway point of the game's main quest before I got Wind Waker and never went back.

Sort of.... I was sitting in my room a number years ago (back on a 486) playing what I think was Sim City. My sister and her friend came in..... The friend pretended to press the power button on my comp. I freaked out, and told her to get away from it and not push the button. She of course pretended to do it again, and accidentally actually turned the comp off. I hadn't saved in 45 minutes. Very upset about that one...

Are you kidding!!! Hundreds of them I'm afraid :(

First my little brother erased all the games off of our old '86 Mac (I really miss those games :cry:)

Then a few years later he completely erased my personal 486 harddrive with classic games like Commander Keen, Raptor and Blakestone mostly completed

Then I erased my own harddrive by a freakish accident #-o

Then my harddrive for my old Pentium II wasn't working at all and the only option left was to reformat it - erasing games like Descent, AOE, and Myst and Riven.

And then...

well there are more but I simply can't go on any further. :noway:
I think I'll forever be emotionally scared :cry:
