I'm looking to buy some old Sega boards, namely Alien Storm and Golden Axe, and apparently those two come with suicide batteries. I have heard that they can be replaced, but I was wondering: How long will a fresh battery last in this case? I know its approximately 5 years with CPS-2 boards, but what about Sega System 16/ System 18 boards? Anybody know? Thanks.
(Or should I take the easy, but shady, way out and look for bootlegs of said games? )
