Looking for game cartridge battery
Last response: in Video Games

Everytime my stepson turns off his game, he has to restart
I'm very sure this is a dead battery. The date on the battery indicates
it was produced 11th week '99. From my experience, Lithium cells have a
shelf life about 5 yrs
Anyone know what the part no. is? or at least the voltage?
Soldering isn't a problem for me, I just need to source a new battery
Thnks

This may sound like a stupid question, but since you didn't specify...
is your son saving the game? Pokemon doesn't autosave, it requires you
to go to the start menu.

My Hubby replaced the battery in my Crystal when it started doing the
same thing ... unfortunately it didn't help much .. instead of not
saving info at all.. it now saves for about a day .. then it erases.
I've given up on Crystal (I had it "beat") ... since I can't trade with
it with Fire or Leaf anyway.
You might see if Nintendo will replace the battery for free .. try
calling the 1-800# ..

Since I don't play myself...I assume he goes back to the start menu,
he's been able to save before
now after about 3 yrs of playing, off and on, his progress does not save

I must've been blind...
The battery type is printed right on the PC board; CR1616, a fairly
common watch battery
The battery is soldered onto the board; two metal strips are spot welded
to the battery to provide solder locations. Carefully breaking the welds
with a knife, slipping the old battery out and inserting a new battery
was all I needed to do
Now the game saves correctly
