Aria of Sorrow fail?

Some GBA games use a battery to save data. The battery for the game is probably dead. If that game doesn't use a battery, it's probably a problem with the game chip itselfSoulreavercross

It could be a bootleg. They are known to have battery/save issues. You can check out Nintendo's anti-piracy site here.

One of the easiest ways to tell on GBA games is to look at where the game contacts are on the bottom of the cartridge. You should be able to see "Nintendo" written on the inside up toward the middle. Below are pictures with two examples. The top pictures for each game are the fakes, with the bottom pictures are the real games. Notice how on the green part near the gold connectors that it says "Nintendo AGB-####" on the real carts but not the fake.
