Help! There's something wrong with my game...

[Drift]

Everytime I load up my Crystal Version, all it says is NEW GAME and OPTION. It doesn't display my saved file. I started a new game last night and nothing else was wrong with it. I saved it and this morning it didn't have it on the menu - It just had NEW GAME and OPTION.
Is there something I can do to fix this?​

Your internal battery has died.

Get a new game.

^ What he said.

Unfortunately, this is a reality for all the old GB and GBC games. Shoot, it's going to happen eventually to the GBA games too. But it was fun while it lasted, eh?

Is there not a way to repair it? Recently there have been those threads, as it has been 6 years after it's release and people's bateries have died.

Your one of the lucky ones.

Nope. I thought I had heard at one point that Nintendo was offering to replace internal batteries on some of its older games, but it might have been a rumor. Anyway, unless that's true, there really is no way, short of taking the game apart and replacing it yourself, although where you'd get the materials, I have no idea.

Aw man. :S
That sucks. >_>
I have a independent game store near my house that sells those old GB games for pretty cheap, so I'll have no problem getting a replacement.​

There've already been a MILLION topics just like this, and doing a search would have found you the answer. :/

Also, it IS possible to recharge your internal battery. We have a Sticky detailing the instructions so you don't need to buy a new game.
