Look up any tutorial on Game Boy save battery replacement, the basic process (and variants, like using batteries with tabs, or welding/taping the old ones to a non-tabbed one, etc) is the same although the battery shape and tools will vary
you need to solder a new one...
if you dont have experience or know how, i will really suggest to find a shop that does it for a small price.. or some neighboor or relative who is good at repairing electronics
well the battery has some tabs soldered, and theese tabs are soldered to the card pcb (the green board)
you need to remove the battery with an iron, and put a new one
don't solder the tabs to a new coin battery buy a battery with the tabs already on it,
i say to don't solder yourself the tabs unless you got the right stuff because heating the battery will reduce its life, or even make it explode...
i once had one which didn't last one month because of this shit..
the process is simple if you already know how to solder stuff and have the materials and tools
but a not experienced person or you know since this is gbatemp "young people;kids" shouldn't attempt to do this because they can get easily burned by the iron or burn the house down ;O; or will at very least they will put solder everywhere and permanently damage the card...
just ask around your town in shops.. for stores who do repairs to electronics
or even a watch\Jewellery shop where they make their own stuff and repairs... they usually have the stuff for this or know someone who does it

I haven't been gaming for such a long time. Been mostly busy with sleep, hardware tinkering and checking GBAtemp frequently. -

It's going alright thanks+1
I know what you mean with gaming time. It's precious where I can get it these days. -

I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive

@Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.

Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.

Man, that's beyond my brain I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though

@Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.+1

Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.

Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha

@Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.+1
