On this episode of Retro Game Attic I go through the steps of replacing a dry battery with a new one so you can fix that "The internal battery has run dry" error message on Pokemon Sapphire!
The process is very similar on other GBA, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, NES, SNES, etc. games with tabbed internal batteries; just be sure that you’re using the correct battery for your game.
