All right, you can now have as many save files as you want, and it's all controlled from within the game! As long as you can remember what you named your file, you can create and load as many as your system can hold. Here's how it works:
 * You can still only have one village loaded at a time.
 * It's a swapping system: you basically swap your current save file for another one.
 * There are now 2 new options in the "Alter Data" option in the main menu: Load file and New game.
 * Load file lets you find another save file for you to swap with the currently loaded one. It tells you the name and village name found in the file you chose, so you can get a better idea of what it is before loading. Before you actually swap, you will be asked to archive your current save file. Once you go through with archiving, all that's left is to swap in the chosen file, and you're good to go!
 * New game lets you start a new village (you'll probably choose this one first, as you won't have any extra files to start out with). You'll be asked to archive your current village, then the game will restart.
 * There's now a new "recovery" menu that you can access upon start-up. Instead of having to create a new village just to access the "Alter Data" menu, you can hold R or L when you press OK on the "VILDATA not found" screen to get to the recovery menu. Here, you can specify a file to load instead of starting a new game.
