In today's episode we're discussing oldschool Gameboy Color Cartridges and what you need to do in order to keep your save file in tact. Specifically, How to Replace the Battery in Pokemon Game Boy Color Games to Fix the Save Feature. Certain Gameboy Color cartridges contain CR2025 batteries and help to create and hold your save file. What this means is ever since you bought the game the battery inside has been slowly but surely losing its charge. When it reaches whatever fated day it decides to run out of juice your save file is kaput. Gone forever. So in this episode we're walking through how to replace the CR2025 batteries in Gameboy Color Games (mostly Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Crystal) using a security screw bit to open the cartridge and a soldering iron to disconnect the original battery and establish new connections with your new battery. I'll also being showing off the Mega Memory Card--a device that stores your Gameboy Color save data in flash memory and is able to reload it to your cartridge in the event that your battery has died and you want your file back. You'll have to save updated save files there periodically so you don't lose any progress, but it's quick and painless. Let me know any horror stories about your lost save files and oldschool gameboy color nostalgia you may be experiencing in the comments!
