2nd Gen How many hours did you put in gsc before it stop saving

[sab]

I'm up to 900 hours on crystal. At 550 I had to replace my internal battery. I backed it on the cp first though re-wrote the save.

 

[Poke'Master24]

you guys should invest in a monster brain. I use it to keep all my saves safe, and if the batteries ever go out, you just replace them and you can get your file back.

 

[FireShock]

My longest was Gold at 450 and it never died on me as a matter of fact my only game to have a internal battery die was Yellow which stopped working at 45-50.

 

[yomamathecableguy]

Well, my Crystal version never died. I lost it. T.T I had 1300 hours on that thing... I was so depressed. :'(

 

[Melash]

I own Yellow, Red, Blue, Silver, and Crystal..and they're all working except for Yellow, which has some weird problems on it. I can't even estimate how many hours I put into those games...haha.

 

[iwuzhere9]

My Silver has made it around 150 hours, the longest I have put into any. (I restart games too much to get a long time in them)

 

[Legobricks]

I think about 150–200 in Crystal, and the battery is still live.

I've got a soldering iron so I could always change it if I want to anyway.

 

[Kikaito plush]

My Silver died last night, I had about 40 hours on there..

 

[BHwolfgang]

I was somewhere between my 400th and 500th hour in Silver before it died on me. I remember being really sad that day; it almost felt like someone died because of my general mood. :O

 

[dozo]

I had roughly 150-200 hours on my Silver & Yellow
Though I didn't have Crystal long enough to have many hours on it..

 

[Zeta Sukuna]

450-600 hours, and Gold is still working fine. But it's starting to go, I think.

 

[null1024]

My Gold is still running, but I dunno exactly how long it's been.

I know I've gone through it 3 times already, so 22*3+15=86 hours for me. I got it from someone else a while ago who has beaten it a couple times well, so I can't do much better than that as an estimate.

And even if it dies, I can just swap out the save battery and Gameshark all my Pokemon back in. I'd have to start my adventure over, but after I beat it again, I'll probably just restart anyway.

 

[Ayselipera]

I have Yellow, Blue, Gold, Silver, and Crystal. They are all still thriving. ;)

 

[InvisibleGoldenBulbasaur]

545:23 on my poor dead Silver, 244:39 on my poor (almost) dead Crystal.

129:53 on my Gold, whose battery was replaced a few months ago. :D (It was my TM farm before my other two died, so I dunno how many hours it had in total.)

R/B/Y all work perfectly fine. My Red has about 60 hours on it, and my former speedrun Blue has 18 or so hours. Yellow, I haven't played it since 2001 but it works >.>;

 

[hectord25]

These cartrigdes die?I`m playing Gold with 170 hours,but this never hace stopped of saving.

 

[MizuJosh]

I think my Silver is dead. It restarts every once in a while. But it could be because I hacked it...

However, my Crystal still works (though it doesn't like to cooperate with my Pokémon Stadium 2 GBT).

 

[Lord Varion]

Aint dead yet?
put its getting glitchy ... soo i might be diening soon

 

[Skweetis]

I played Crystal for 200+ hours in just my original file, had it for almost a decade and it works perfectly fine. Silver does too.

 

[JaniWesker]

About 300 hours in Silver (last save).

 

[Weird]

My Gold and Silver cartridges are playing fine, but my Crystal cartridge stopped working after 150 hours ( my neightbour destroyed it with one of his crazy ideas)
