I was playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 and when I collected the comet star for Yoshi Star Galaxy I got an in game error saying the save could not be accessed. After restarting the game says the save is corrupt. Is there a way I can repair the save? Or does Dolphin back up saves somewhere?
If I do have to restart, what cheats can I use to recover my stats and star count?

You were probably using savestates. IDK about what to do to recover though.

I had actually never used savestates in that game. Wish I had, as I would have a place to resume. Totally random corruption.

So after finishing world 1 again, I went to backup my new save and I noticed a file called banner.bin which wasn't there before. I had saved my corrupted save (gamedata.bin) so I coped it back to the save folder with banner.bin and then my old save worked fine. Banner.bin must have been deleted somehow, my guess is that enabling CPU clock override did it somehow, as I had never used that option with SMG2 until then and it had worked fine.
Problem solved.
