What does one do when that battery dies? I have a Link to the Past and possibly an Ys III with dead or dying batteries, and I'd like to get 'em fixed. Hopefully on the cheap.

Can you solder? If so, buy some CR2032 batteries and replace them yourself. You'll of course need the proper bits to open the cartridges.. you can get them on eBay very cheap.

I cannot solder, and would not trust my shaky arthritic (no joke) hands with something so precious as SNES carts if I could. =[

I daresay it's just luck of the draw. Though I did get Ys III used via Ebay...
