I know with pokemon gold/silver/crystal the batteries seem to give out around the 90 to 100 hr mark but what about blue? I recently restarted my blue game and am about 15 hrs into it. Id be pretty pissed if it gave out as I reached the elite 4 :(
I dunno. I got about 250 hours into Silver back in the day (before losing it with a Pokedex of 249/251 :cry: ) and it never gave out. With Red version my brother and I put in about the same number of hours and it gave up the ghost one day :cry: .

BAHH that sucks. come to think of it, the amount of game hours probably wouldnt have anything to do with the save battery as it would be draining life whether you were playing the game or not :( I wonder why the g/s/c batteries run out faster as opposed to blue and red. maby it has something to do with the internal clock on g/s/c needing the battery to keep time.

What places sell the screwdrivers for the special screws used?

CR 2032 is the battery in full sized console carts. The one in GB and such small carts is a CR 1616

Thanks Hobie, I knew that sounded wrong when I said it.
