3rd Gen Fire Red on the DS

It may be hacked because that can effect the battery life or the Battery may have run dry in which case you would need to replace it.
 
Maybe your game is faulty, Was it bought of an auction site like Ebay?
 
Thats probably your problem, Ebay can be a dodgy place to buy used electronics.
 
This is why you should never buy used stuff, especially not on eBay.

Go to a place like GameStop or somewhere where you can sell the FireRed game, and buy one that's actually new.
 
they never had it. and the ebay one was brand new

Just because it was advertised as "brand new" doesn't mean the other person couldn't have beaten it up pretty badly. Either that, or he just tried repackaging the blasted thing after hacking it.

Either way, you got scammed.
 
You should be able to find FR/LG easy at Best Buy, Walmart, GameStop, etc. I'd get rid of the copy you have now and go buy a new one at a store.
 
Can you tell me what happens when you play it sam.

Can you play it and save the game?
But when you load the ave again what happens?
 
Theres not really much you can do in this situation.

Just try to make sure that you dont knock it about.
 
sometimes when i load it says "the save file is ok" or "the save file has been deleted"

It shouldn't say that. Sell it on EBay, then buy one in Walmart, Best Buy, Superstore (if you live in Canada)... I need several pictures to make sure it's a bad version/fake.
