Hey guys,
Not sure if this is the right Place to ask, but I think it is. After recently playing some Pokémon games, I kinda got back into it.
Now, from when I was in high school I have an original blue cartridge that has a legit event Mew Pokémon on it. So it’s unique Pokémon ID, and somewhere I have the certificate to match.
I’ve decided I want to get the save data off the cartridge and into a PC before it’s too late. Maybe even rewrite it back to another original cartridge with a fresh battery.
My question is, what equipment do I need?
I guess I need a flash card reader, and a flash card. I’m a tech novice, so that’s me guessing.
Basically. I need to copy my original blue data to a Pc. Change the battery. Then rewrite back to a cartridge. Or maybe I make a copy onto a flash cartridge so I can freely trade the Mew around. Or just upload the rom. I guess not many are left now.
Would someone be able to confirm if this is correct? And even better link a reader and flash cart that are suitable for the task and easily available to purchase? I don’t have original game boys anymore, only GBA SP, but that plays the original games so I guess it doesn’t matter. Unless the flash card memory has to be a certain size.
