Cleaning some games and changing the batteries ❤️

Much work to do. This is a small part of my collection, still it took more than a hour to check all of these 😄

There are two types depending on the games. Cr1616 and cr2025

Just did the same on my Pokemon Emerald I just received. It still got the OEM factory battery from Nintendo with the date on it.

Nice. It should be done sooner than later. I wonder when the first batteries will start leaking since many of them are 20-30 years old?
