Nintendo has acknowledged the presence of a bug in Zelda Skyward Sword. The bug occurs after a specific sequence of events and makes it so that players can no longer advance in the game.

For specifics, consult Nintendo's homepage (the page is available only in Japanese). The page has directions for the path to take in order to avoid the bug.

If you've already encountered the bug, Nintendo will fix your save file. There are two options for this. For those with an internet connection, Nintendo will distribute a program. Details will be announced later. For those without an internet connection, Nintendo wants you to them send your SD card or Wii system.
