[Super Famicom] Moment of despair

Gah!

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx59

Magic Great War

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

Vanish Death

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx23

Next time you turn on the power, brace yourself.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews

Primal data modification

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

When you think about it, why does saving disappear due to shock?

Does the battery backup connection temporarily lose contact and stop powering on?

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remembered that I told my friend about a mechanical equipment bug, where equipping a strange item in the weapon slot caused a glitch during battle and deleted the data.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

You can play again!

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t have memories of saves disappearing due to shocks, but have you experienced that?

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>8

I don’t have many lost memories, but GoldenEye used to disappear regularly.

For some reason, when I reinserted it in a good way, it came back to life.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>10

I remembered the Saturn’s memory.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>8

It’s not shocking, but Smash Bros. has disappeared.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>8

When I inserted the cartridge of Mario Party 2 with wet hands, a warning screen I’ve never seen appeared and it started from the beginning.

After re-stitching, it returned to the original data.

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

Phone

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I felt a huge improvement when I turned 64 and the save data stopped disappearing.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kirby Super Deluxe… Was there something to begin with?

23: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>14

The error checking is strict, and if it gets caught, it deletes without attempting to restore.

The software that is said to be easy to disappear is generally this.

The ones that are hard to delete can perform data recovery processes.

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

When there is a loading error, it is treated as if it has disappeared, and it’s written in the form of “It has disappeared,” right?

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since the Game Boy Color, cassettes have not been disappearing at all, so I wonder if any measures were taken.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>16

Starting from the GBA and 64, it became possible to save to flash memory.

Until then, they were using button batteries to preserve the save data, right?

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s an amazing evolution considering that now we upload data to the cloud and take backups.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

Due to the nature of the game, it’s somewhat inevitable, but the original Torneko can also disappear quite easily.

In other words, it tends to become strange.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if the ones with special chips or larger capacities are more likely to disappear.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Dragon Quest was just so easy to disappear.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t have any memories of data getting lost since the Super Famicom.

Kirby? I haven’t played it, so I don’t know…

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I think about it, what does it mean that it has disappeared or that there’s a dedicated BGM prepared?!

26: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>22

It’s not for exclusive use!

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

It’s great that it doesn’t get deleted on the PlayStation memory card and you can make copies too!

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

When my data for FF5, where I defeated Omega and the god dragon, was deleted for the first time, it felt like the end of the world.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

Every time my save data disappeared, I remember playing through to the Fighting King in just one day every time I played with my friends.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

Spadela has disappeared too much and before I knew it, they are challenging RTA.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>28

There is even a data loss bug!

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

If there were video games in this day and age where the save data disappears.

I’m going to get criticized a lot…

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>29

Nowadays, saving is done on external media.

If there is one, it’s that the function related to saving the game is bugged.

It might be that you end up writing invalid data yourself…

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

The atmosphere when I was supposed to show off my data to a friend and it disappeared.

32: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Is there a chance for Dragon Quest?

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

That’s definitely the revival spell.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>33

nu me

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

Perhaps because the software was left running for a long time at that time, both Spadella and FF6 never really disappeared back then.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like the Super Famicom would bug out if you bumped it hard, but I remember being impressed that the N64 and PS were completely fine even if you bumped them a bit.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s both frustrating and impressive that there is a message for when the data gets lost.

How many times have I seen Amuro groan about irretrievable things in SRW EX…

38: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Memory cards are very convenient, but I felt a bit sad that I couldn’t see the previous owner’s data when I bought used software.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

How many times have I seen the words “Demon Great War”?

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

Once I inserted DQ, I basically didn’t take it out until I cleared it.

Even so, there were times when I would disappear and wonder why.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Just by bumping into the vacuum cleaner my mom is using, all the data gets wiped out.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think you shouldn’t bother with a ROM check since it disappears right away.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

In that regard, power memory is amazing.

Even if I stay calm and don’t move, the data still disappears.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

My friend’s data for Shiren 3 at home 64 disappeared, so it was tough.

51: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>46

It’s being transplanted recklessly…

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

As expected, the revival spell formula was the best…

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>47

(The text is distorted and difficult to read.)

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>47

If cameras were as easy to use as they are now, it would be great.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>47

I wonder how many characters are needed in the current game…

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>54

Using Unicode, it seems like the number of characters can be reduced.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was amazed that the BANDAI FC game, especially DBZ, never lost its data at all.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

Why does Dragon Quest play that cursed music when the data disappears!?

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

I despair as the save data on my FC software gradually becomes infested with bugs.

If it’s an action game, I can laugh out loud.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Super Famicom also uses a battery-powered data save system, so if the battery in the cartridge dies, the data should disappear.

I wonder if they replace the battery when playing retro games on the actual hardware now.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

Our FF6 is so weak that it’s rare for the save data to last even until the corruption.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was easy to reset Super Deluxe to 100%, but I was quite shocked that the time in the Gourmet Race disappeared.

59: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It’s here━━━━━━(゚∀゚)━━━━━━ !!!!!

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

In our FF6, the data never disappeared.

The DQ series has a strong image of disappearing often.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have the impression that FF is relatively okay.

In Dragon Quest and something else, I don’t know, but Kirby disappears a lot.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder what the disappearance of data depends on.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

I showed Estark to my unnamed friends this time.

72: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>63

Hey, think of an excuse.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

My memory of Dragon Quest III disappears right before I challenge Baramos!

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

But the memory card wasn’t guaranteed either…

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>66

Being able to make copies as many as you want was a strength.

75: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>66

The cheap, large-capacity ones are a bit different, but the genuine products are still properly available…

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

If the amount of data is large, it seems like there would be more items to check as well.

There might be differences in accuracy simply due to the way ROM is made.

69: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Clearly, having the save disappear right before the final boss hits the hearts of elementary school students.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

Just because it couldn’t read the data once due to a voltage issue, it mercilessly deletes it, judging it as corrupted data.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

Before the final boss in an RPG, I somehow lose motivation and end up neglecting it, and while I’m slacking off, my data gets erased.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s probably no use to send a message saying “Change the battery now!”

It's probably no use to send a message saying "Change the battery now!"

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remembered that I couldn’t clear “Dai Kaijuu Monogatari 2” because it always disappears right before the last dungeon.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

Looking back, the data for FF6 often got erased.

I think it’s because I was using a lot of glitch techniques.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

I heard that the Super Deluxe is prone to disappearing due to the built-in special chip, but why didn’t the Masou Kishin with the same chip disappear as much?

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>78

SA-1 was introduced to increase processing speed, so it is not directly related to memory.

So if SDX is really particularly prone to disappearing, I think the cause lies in the construction of other parts.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think the data will be lost if I drop the PS memory card.

For a while, I handled it carefully.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it that the easily disappearing ones have a bad connection in the circuit from the battery due to shock…?

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

I cleared Dragon Quest 1, 2, and 3 on the Famicom.

Only in 4 does the save data disappear no matter what you do.

I tried hard with the power left on, but I could only make it to Torneko.

Even during the remake boom of SFC, 4 was left behind and ended up being released on PS before I knew it.

In the end, it’s the only Dragon Quest I haven’t cleared, DQ4.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>81

I’m also in this pattern.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

To be honest, I was really troubled when I was told that.

I want to see your Super Robot Wars F data, so bring your power memory.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

I think it looks like that is broken, but it’s actually not.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Was this that fragile?

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

DQ5 has disappeared, huh?

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that the Sacred Sword 3 has disappeared quite a bit, hasn’t it?

88: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>87

I think there were more cases where the data was deleted by siblings due to the one-touch save feature in Secret of Mana 3 without any confirmation.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>88

I remember deleting my brother’s save file…

89: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>87

I have a memory of not using it because only number 2 would disappear.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it’s rare for SFC data to disappear.

I threw it directly into the bicycle basket and went back and forth to my friend’s house, and it didn’t disappear.

The fact that only Spaderra disappears excessively seems like a potential bug caused by special chips.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t really remember Spadela disappearing, but was it a lucky cassette?

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>93

If there’s a reading error, it’s treated as corrupted data and will be deleted, so as long as there’s no poor contact at the terminals, it shouldn’t disappear that much.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

I still come across videos of people fixing SFCs and Famicoms using soldering skills.

95: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

FF doesn’t give the impression of having disappeared like that.

4 has disappeared here and there.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

I’ve seen that airship fleet in the opening countless times.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

I cried because Tengai Makyou Zero is also easy to disappear.

It’s not as good as Spadela, but…

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>96

I wonder if things with time functions or special features are more likely to disappear.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

The ease with which Spadela disappears is seriously amazing.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

In our FF, 4 disappeared a lot, 6 was somewhat okay, and 5 didn’t disappear at all.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

Spadela had grown tired of collecting treasures and was rushing through as quickly as possible.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>100

There are quite a few people who became the beginning of RTA…

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember filling all the slots for the measures, but sometimes I would mistakenly overwrite old data.

What was it…

102: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When I try to delete data from this side, they often complain, but from that side, they delete it mercilessly.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

I still remember the day after I cleared the hidden dungeon in Star Ocean, when it disappeared.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

0% 0% 0%

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

Gathering abilities with a wish on the galaxy is fun and a good thing…

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

VI really disappeared like a snack.

I was wondering what to do when the pre-war Kafka data disappeared.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m sure it was a Famicom, but I feel like my dad replaced the battery in the game cartridge and revived the save function.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>110

But there are still so many software programs that are alive with batteries, it’s hard to understand.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

Snap.

(The purple clouds aren’t appearing…)

Snap snap.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because Shin Megami Tensei if keeps disappearing, I’ve never played the Akira chapter.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s scary when nothing appears on the screen even after turning on the power.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s tough not being able to join in on discussions like this since the first game I touched was on GBA.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>115

It’s better not to have the experience of a save disappearing!

That said, I’ve heard that the GBA’s batteries have also become questionable…

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve heard that if you save too much on the GBA, it can break.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I replaced my PC, I forgot to transfer my save data and lost my Terraria data.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember that when I disappeared in Dragon Quest 5, I was able to come back to life after stabbing myself once again.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

Saturn’s stinger (aftermarket product)

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>120

The SS is huge, yet the size of its built-in memory is too small…

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

The GBA can hold saves both with a battery and without one.

If you save too many times, it’s the one without a battery that breaks… though it should be over 10,000 times.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was probably around the Famicom; I hardly had any Super Famicom.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

The data loss in Spadela could be intentionally caused, so it seems like auto-save and consistency checks are causing issues.

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

My FF6 save was corrupted by a persimmon.

Don’t let the fruit defeat you… It’s before the last dungeon…

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>125

Crab’s response

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

My FF6 data in front of the Tower of Ruin has disappeared twice without me doing anything.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews

The crab is the one that gets dropped and loses, right?
