    Yeah but if I replace them, it’s not like I get my saves back, right?

      No, but you’d regain the ability to create new saves, which also happens to give you an excuse to play 'em again!

      And if you’ve been playing ROMS you can put that save on an official cart, too.

        True, that’s a good point. Well, two good points.
