After about 3 weeks of not playing, I decided to boot up my Emerald cartridge, only to see this message.
I flinched and then instantly turned off my DS and tried to blow out the dust from the cartridge, if any. After turning it on again, it appeared my save file was back, fully intact. I had saved twice to be sure. However, now I'm starting to wonder if this was a "warning sign", in a sense. Sort of how the clock in GSC becomes reset before it cannot save anymore.
Is my Emerald eventually going to be corrupted? Was it possibly just bad dust? Is there anything I can do right now?
Thanks.
