    Does anybody know how to go about doing this? My Silver died years ago and Gold just recently. I still have Crystal but that's probably on its way out. Is it something I'd be able to do myself with the right equipment?

    I figured a thread was appropriate since other people probably have dead games too and might be wondering the same thing.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. If this is the wrong board I apologize. I wasn't sure where the thread would go on the Technology board.
     
    Here is a start (https://www.pokemasters.net/forums/showthread.php?t=15464)
    I really wouldnt use a disposable camera though, I just used a regular soldering iron. If you go on google and type in "replace internal battery pokemon silver" there are plenty of pages with instruchtions on how to do it.

    Hope I helped :)
     
    I've never had a problem with a soldering iron, I didnt know how much people disliked them :(
    I guess there is nothing wrong with doing it without a soldering iron, but I've never tired it any other way so I didnt want to give advice about something I didnt have experience with myself. If it works for other people then why not go for it.
