Help....please!

Sorry if this is the wrong board. I just joined yesterday. I'm playing "Pokemon Gold" on here and I followed the instructions to save the game. The next day I come back, I double clicked the screen, clicked load and my save file wasn't there . There was no "Continue" option. Why won't it let me reaccess my save file. Please help me, thanks.

I will just quote Kong, try to do these steps in order and it should save. ;D

The Game Boy games only offer Save RAM (also called Battery Saves). I think you are confusing it with save states which is what most modern games and the other systems here use.

Save RAM does not save the exact spot in the game but just the general info up to that point in the game. Your name, experience, town, equipment etc.

The other systems on Retro Uprising use Save States.

To save Game Boy games you must

First - Register and login.

Second - save the game the same as you would on a real Game Boy. Some Game Boy games require you go to an inn or church or some other special save location and press start. In Cobi's Journey you have to Press X on the keyboard to bring the menu up. Select "Plan" from the menu. Then select "Journal". Save your journey. You can only do this in certain places in the game.

Third - double click the game and click save.

Fourth - a window will pop up asking for you to confirm the save. If you already have a save for that game then it will be overwritten. Click yes.

Fifth - To load the save double click and click load.

sixth - a pop up window will ask if you are sure. Click yes. The game will restart with your save loaded.

seventh - you will need to load the save the same as you would on an original Game Boy. This is often done on the first game menu by selecting continue or load.
EDIT: i just followed these steps and had no problem with it, i hope it helped ;D

Thank you very much!!! Stupid me, I didn't try that because I thought that the original game's save file didn't work anymore because the ones on the regular Game Boy didn't. Thank you again.

I'm glad it helped. ;D

also it should be noted that everytime you restart a game for Gold/Silver/Crystal Versions you have to redo the clock, its a chore but sometimes useful for finding that pokemon you desire
