Gold & Silver
So, is it just my luck or has anyone elses Gold or Silver versions just erase for no reason? I own the U.S. version of Silver which erased for an unknown reason and wont save any new games and the Japanese version of Gold which also erased for an unknown reason. Is this a flaw in the cartridges or is it just my luck? I was pretty mad since their my fav. versions of the whole series :(
|
yea..my silver was erased by itself for no reason at all as well..but then again...I think it was because I haven't played it in a while....when was the last time you played yours?..
|
Ya, that happened with my Silver too. But this belongs in the Metal/Color Generation thread.
|
oops, my b i didnt see the other thread, but yeah i actually played it alot last july and it was working fine, then one day i just turned it on and said new game without a continue, my heart dropped because a few days earlier i completed my pokedex :\

I wonder if there is a way to fix this problem....
(No wonder people havent been answering my thread, they've all been answering yours =P) |
After you play a Pokemon game for a certain amount of hours, you're internal battery dies. It seems as if yours died also. There's no way to get it fixed either, I think, so you're just gonna have to go buy yourself a new copy. =/

yeh i agree with green bulbasaur the most likely answer is your internal battery has died, you can send it to nintendo and they will replace the battery for free, but you must pay for shipping etc. or the connectors in your cartridge or game boy could be dirty and you could fix it with a cleaning kit, or if they are very dirty you could send it to nintendo and they could clean it for you.
|
This happned to me because of dirt in on the cartrige.
|
Does Nintendo still clean and fix cartridges??Same thing happened with my gold version.Sadly,I had Raikou,Umbreon,Espeon,Feraligatr and many other good Pokemon.Also my brother has had Red version about 6-7 years and it still works and i've had gold only 2-3 years.....I hope this won't happen to the blue version i'm getting next Thursday.

I usually leave my games in the car,on my dresser or even in the DEN,most time my saved game is ereased.I look in the part that goes into the GB and see crums or dust and blow it out.
Hint:Don't leave the game cartiges in your pants or shorts you may not even remember it was there until it gets washed and the saved file is gone for good. I had a level 100 Typhosion,Meganium,Feraligatr,Lugia,Ho-Oh,Entei,Raikou,Suicune. |
well good news, my friend was searching through his games the other day and found his silver and knowing that mine died he just gave me his! :shocked: i fired it up and found that yes indeed the save feature still works :D
|
Hmm I wonder if I sped up the death the Internal battery, from the number of times I abruptly turned off the game while saving while using the cloning trick...
I abused that cheat alot..must've done it about 100 times. You think that might've contributed to the death of my internal battery? |
yeah maybe, at this point im guessing its a problem with only the GSC versions because mine and everyone elses RBY still work fine and thier even older cartridges. i hope this problem wasnt continued though with RSE and even future games :nervous:
|
The internal battery keeps the time of the game. So when the battery dies, the game is unable to keep time, thus it says that there is no time set and that the file is corrupted. Sadly, my Gold version of six years died... I'm sure my brother's Silver version is to follow and I'm replaying my Crystal just to get as much fun from it while it lasts. Sad, because I believe that the Gold/Silver/Crystal generation was the pinnacle of Pokemon gaming.
