Sonic Advance 2 - An error of the best kind.

EDIT 06/28/11: There, it isn't called 'Best Glitch Ever' any more.

Ok... so a couple of nights ago, I decide that I want to play 2-Player mode in Sonic Advance 2.

Player 1 is my ordinary file, maybe 6 Emeralds collected for Sonic.

Player 2 has no file at all.
... THIS IS PLAYER TWO WTF.

1. It's in Japanese.
2. I have Amy. (well, I shouldn't have anyone other than Sonic, but I kinda overlooked that fact)
3. I have all 35 Emeralds. (just like on my missing GBA cart)
4. The Chao Garden has 0 Rings. (which makes sense, since I've never played this file.)

The cause? The file type was set to 'Flash 128K'. Yeah. That was all.

What's the error? I didn't get it

[cdjblue]

@jojidubi4 Hm. I guess this video would seem pretty pointless without the description...

(First time loading game. Shouldn't have anything, let alone everything.)

Sooooooooo let me get this straight...your SA2 ROM glitched causing you to lose a profile or something, so you post a video to youtube of you playing poorly for almost 4 minutes...yeah, perfect sense there.

[cdjblue]

Yeah, that about covers it.

Yes, this glitch happened to me on the real cartridge a few years ago... except it was in English. All I remember is that I tried a few new options and then took the cartridge out, and afterwards it fixed itself.

Incidentally, has this ever happened to anyone on Sonic Advance 1 or 3?

i had that too

[Sonicthemainman]

One time I started SA2, then I had Amy unlocked. I than went to Sonic's and was on the secret boss until it froze. I never did that again.

egg utopia = Another death egg

=P

Well, it is unable to access the correct file due to a memory error, so it brought up this instead. The point being, this isn't supposed to happen.

@cdjblue Where?!? I don't see it's a glitch, rather an big error; Glitches are for example getting stuck in things, going through walls, dying for no reason etc., big errors are for example loosing all data, data loss, getting 100% by nothing, etc.. Got it? Not a glitch!
