What's that, Link? You say your progress in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Swordhas been halted by a game-breaking sequence of events (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/12/06/oops-game-halting-bug-in-skyward-sword-and-how-to-avoid-it/)? And that I must deliver expository text because you're unable to speak? Alright then.

Nintendo's corrective strategy for Skyward Sword, which will strike you as unorthodox and elaborate compared to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 patching procedures, is to release a full Wii Channel. It will repair (or effectively patch) save files created after the glitch has occurred. According to an announcement from Japan, the "Zelda Data Restoration Channel" will be available through the Wii Shopping Channel, from the Wii Channel section.

Nintendo of America has not yet updated its support page to highlight the new channel. At the moment, it's letting customers send in their save files for repair (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/12/16/nintendo-to-repair-buggy-zelda-skyward-sword-save-files/).
