Reliving the good times

[Ice Wave]

Unfortunately, my copy of MMBN2 can no longer hold saved data, I guess the internal battery died.  I play BN3 sometimes though; I've got some pretty nice folders.

I actually enjoyed Network Transmission; it reminds me of the Classic Megaman games.

[Winged Warrior]

Yes... The battery... That makes total sence.

[preventerWIND]

Yes, it does make sense. The internal batteries are known to run out.

[ASR]

Hence old NES and SNES games that no longer save.

[preventerWIND]

The Pokemon advance games had that problem, and they released something to fix them apparently.

[NovaMan XP]

My Gold version had that problem, and I actually had to open it up and replace the battery myself.

[Vinchenz Rock]

Newer games use FLASH memory so batteries running out is no problem.

However, if you've played your games for 10 years straight, then they wouldn't work anymore.

[Ice Wave]

My Gold version had that problem, and I actually had to open it up and replace the battery myself.

Gold and Silver were notorious for having horrible internal battery issues.  Mine died years ago and still won't save to this day.  Same thing with my copy of Megaman Zero.

[Someguy]

I poured Coke in my Pokemon Red when I got that battery problem and it started to save again

[preventerWIND]

THIS IS WHY I'M A POP ADDICT!

Coke is the greatest, I hear they even spray it on some wheels at auto-shops. To clean it or some other jazz.

[Someguy]

How come Coke can clean wheels but not my teeth?!  :'(

[preventerWIND]

Because teeth suck.

[Fatso]

That's strange, all my SNES games still save just fine (except for that damned hockey game, which I don't play anymore anyways). I don't have any NES games that save, so no way to check up on that.

[Mikero]

A lot of old Sega stuff, like with Game Gear games, had their internal batteries run out rather quickly.

Why do we choose to put something as clearly corrosive as cola into our bodies? He said knowingly, while drinking a Diet Pepsi MAX.

[preventerWIND]

I hate those new gimmicks like Diet Pepsi MAX. Its just a bunch of useless placeholders in the fridge; blocking my supply of Coke Zer- I mean, Diet Coke.

[Mikero]

Diet Pepsi MAX and Coke Zero are two different things. DPMax is an energy drink but doesn't taste like ass like every other energy drink. I'm trying to figure out what makes Coke Zero different from Diet Coke. The nutrition facts are exactly the same.

The only reason I bought a Diet Pepsi MAX is because I had a hangover and wanted all that energy ##### to put my metabolism into overdrive. Otherwise I wouldn't have it.

[preventerWIND]

The only difference between Coke Zero and Diet Coke is that Zero is made to taste like regular Coke. But even then it tastes different.

Only reason I don't like Diet Pepsi MAX is because its stupid to make it an energy drink, when you can actually buy an energy drink. Its just a bunch of gimmicks to the company to get you to buy more drinks, like Pepsi Blue..

[Mikero]

The only thing I DO like about Diet Pepsi MAX is that it's an energy drink that doesn't taste awful. Because every single other one is horrible.

Pepsi Blue was a terrible idea that I'd repressed until now. I'm still gagging on that taste.

[Abominator]

Relentless is the finest energy drink.

[Fatso]

I think they use different artificial sweeteners for Coke Zero and Diet Coke.

[Mikero]

Both use aspartame.

[Fatso]

There goes that theory.

I'm really stumped. They do taste different though.

I smell lack of proper disclosure!!!

[Abominator]

I thought Max and Zero used aspartame (which gives you cancer) whereas the Diet drinks used Nutrasweet (which makes you sterile)?

[Fatso]

I'd always thought Zero used sucralose, for some reason.

[Mikero]

I've checked. All of those diet ones, including Zero, use aspartame. Max uses aspartame and adds ginseng and extra caffeine. I want one that uses Splenda.

[ChaosVortex]

I'm OK with Diet. Zero is disgusting.

[Mikero]

I don't mind either now but they must have changed the formula of Zero because when it first came out I tried it and wished I was drinking motor oil instead. But now it's fine.

[ChaosVortex]

We had Zero at Wendy's for a couple of months.

It didn't sell and no one would want to drink it over the counter.

[Mikero]

Weird. They still have it at the Wendy's near my house/that I worked at.

[ChaosVortex]

Well, over here it was replaced by Vault. It was good.

However, it was replaced by Fanta Orange, which is better (IMO).

[Winged Warrior]

I want one that uses Splenda.

Diet Big Red uses splenda.

It's the only soda I have ever had that scratches it's way down your throat.

[Mikero]

There is no way I'm drinking Big Red or Diet Big Red anyway.
