I moved the chips from a Pokemon Ruby that did not work to an junk Emerald PCB and my mess actually worked

A few days ago I asked advice about a Pokemon Ruby that did not worked (white screen) after doing all the cleaning, reflowing and other cleaning stuff.

Pokemon Red savefile just dissapeared but the battery is working

I was playing a few hours ago but when I returned and turned on the console (game inside) my savefile was gone. The battery was instaled recently and it should be working since I tested it.

Opinion on the condition of games

The other day I finally got Oracle of Ages to complete the set. As you can see the season one is better preserved while Ages definitely saw better times. But then I wondered what do players and collectors think about the condition of their games.

Do you mind if you don't have a well preserved game? Or you don't care as long as yoy can play your favorites?​​

Not an original Gameboy Color screen?

I got a gameboy color yesterday and when I opened it to clean the inside I noticed the screen was ​different from others.

Could it be the gameboy had the screen replaced before I purchased it?​​
