Hyrule Warriors Legends does not currently have an option to reset save data. For some players, they’ve found this to be a problem when they want to sell it to the used games market.

There is good news though! The official Hyrule Warriors Legends Japanese Twitter account acknowledged that you can’t clear save data, but they would like to implement this as soon as possible. It should be added in via an update sometime in the future.

Update: Updates notes are in, and Nintendo didn’t surprise us! It’s the standard line: “Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience”. There’s been talk about the previous version causing issues with SD card corruption, so perhaps today’s patch addresses that.

Following last week’s firmware release, the 3DS has once again received another update. Version 10.5.0-30 is out now.

Nintendo has yet to share any notes about today’s update. Once they’re available, we’ll add them in here. I’d be surprised if it’s anything beyond improved stability though!
