  • I can't remember my big, main game of Crystal... there was a long hiatus between sessions, and sometime during that it stopped saving. Didn't know what happened, thought I had restarted on my own and "forgot"...

    Play again, got... 8 hours or less. .___.;

    I had somewhere around 150 hours on Silver, then I didn't play it for a year or so and when I decided to go back and check it, the battery was dead.

    Gold, however, still works fine with about 70 hours on it.

  • I never lost my ability to save, however, I did lose one save file that had 213 hours on it. It had my prized Lv. 100 Meganium and Lv. 91 Ho-oh on it. I was trying to get my pokemon to Lv. 100, and it got deleted somehow. But I can still save. I know I didn't delete the save file, and I didn't know anyone who would do that to me, so... yeah.

    My Silver Version barely had any time on it but it would never save... it was weird. :|

    Over about 100 hours until I stopped playing.
    I had the best team that could beat anyone! After I stopped playing I eventually decided to come back only to find out my file was erased some how...

  • Not yet...

    My Version of Gold has never died, but if it does, I bought a used Mega Memory Card on eBay so I can still load my game save without ever having to replace the battery. :)

    I play it on an R4 right now, so it doesn't matter to me. :P

    But on my Crystal (GBC) game about 50 hours before it died. I was crushed. :'(

    I sold my copy before it died out, but I recall it having 40 hours on it.
    That's just one file; 300+ hours total, perhaps.

  • My Pokemon Silver or Crystal battery is still alive and kicking, along with ALL of my other GB/GBC games. Not one of the batteries has died. Although...the time on my Silver somehow reset and I had to set it again, hope that isn't a sign of things to come.

  • I have got my gold version since 2002, I use it regularly since then and restarted the game several times. I think I easily went to 500 hours on it and it still saves the game, well maybe it's gonna die tomorrow or whatever but right now it's working *-*
