Posted this on Shitfaqs and of course no one replied and it got buried, thought I'd post it here, at least as a warning if not anything else...
Pokemon Y froze my entire system when I pressed the Home button. I'm only connected via StreetPass, not fully online Internet at the moment [when I posted this, I was at work, at home I have no problems connecting to the Internet], only so I can use the PSS for O-Powers and such. This is the second time the game has fully froze when I have tried to go to the Home menu today. I have Pokemon Y and it's the retail version. The music doesn't freeze, but otherwise the entire system freezes at my current point in the game. Doesn't go to the Home menu, won't let me turn off Wifi, no buttons work at all. Even doing a hard shutdown of the whole system is wonky. I have to hold the power button down for a few seconds, then it shuts off the screen, but not the blue "on" light or the wifi light until several seconds after that. Anyone else had this problem? This seems like a terrible glitch and it's really inexcusable. Thinking of not playing anymore; good thing I already beat the E4.
Did Nintendo QA this game AT ALL before shipping it? Between the Lumiose City glitch and other bugs like this, I'm thinking they rushed to ship the game so they could meet the worldwide date, as glitches like these would have EASILY been caught in any QA environment. What a joke.
