Title: Unable to load/save games in VisualBoyAdvance
Cyba.Cowboy 9 Mar 2015
So I've downloaded [VIsualBoyAdvance](https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/natty/visualboyadvance-gtk/) and I've loaded-up a Pokémon game...

But when I try to save the current game using the in-game "save" option, I am told:
Save error.
Please exchange the backup memory.


Also, what is the "batteries" directory for?

I don't have a directory or a file specified for this... Could this be why the games are not saving?

Edit: Never mind, the emulator has a (program) menu that also has a "save" option and that works fine... I still wouldn't mind knowing what the "batteries" directory is for though.
