Guide: SEGA Game Gear battery replacement

Which type of batteries do SMD cartridges use? What is the SEGA Game Gear battery type?

It's an unusual type of CR2032 with solder tabs on the sides, but they are on an angle. We can use a regular tabbed version of the battery and just connect the pads to the correct pins.

• Game Gear carts typically use GameBit 4.5mm screws
• Soldering iron (We recommend the TS101)
• Desolder pump or braid
• Leaded solder 60/40
• A steady hand and some time

How to replace the battery in SEGA Game Gear carts?
