Reminder to replace the battery in your games guys. They corrode over time.

I wish it was easier to install battery holders into cartridges. It's hard finding ones that are small enough with the leads in the right place.

Just get a 2032 CMOS battery for a laptop, snip the wires and solder them to the pads. No holder required and you can just desolder the wires when it dies in 20 years and repeat the process.

Use these, you can still close the cartridge up with no resistance at all. https://a.co/d/03Kzsd9g

Some cartridge types have more room than others.
Somehow I was able to find holders for my gba pokemon games but not the gb ones.

But that would destroy my game

Those are great but the tabs always break off when I bend them.

Best solution is a supercap tied in with the 5v power rail.

You act like 2001 and 2007 never happened.

What happened in 2001 and 2007? Besides 9/11. Unless you're talking about 9/11.
