okay, I called Nintendo CS and they said that they have had a couple of people call in about it but they cannot duplicate the problem. The guy said that he personally plays MP 18 hrs a day (exageration I hope) and has never had it lock up. They offered to test the disk if I send it in but I declined. He said when others sent their disk in that they could not duplicate the problems. Oh well.

Ah.. right. Well I'll call when I get home just to let them know that this is a known problem, regardless of it's frequencey. I would suggest anybody else that had it happen more than once to just call if for anything to just let them know that there is a problem.
