GBA Zelda link to the past corrupted files
(1/2) > >>
BigLou9886:
Hey guys and gals,
I decided to replay Zelda LttP on GBA and when I booted the cart up all three saved games were wiped and  it said file one is corrupted file two is corrupted and so forth. When I attempt to create a new file it says can't save file is corrupt. I've never had this issue before with any game looking for some insight on a solution. Do you think the battery is dead? Or is this cart dead ? Any info is greatly appreciated
JDavis:
Probably the battery.
Kriegspire:
I dont believe save files are lost if GBA games' batteries die. Look at pokemon, only the internal clock dies out.

I'd have to guess it's probably a faulty cartridge, dirt/grime on the connectors, or some piece of the circuitry burned out.

Not 100% on that though.
BigLou9886:
I believe it is the cartridge that is bad  :'(  its a sad day when a zelda game doesn't work anymore
wiggy:
I bet either the GBA, the cart, or both have dirty contacts. Start there as far as diagnosis goes as it's free and easy.
