I just got a brand new Neo Geo memory card off of ebay. The seller claimed it was "Brand New, never used". Indeed, it would appear that it's brand new. Anyway... I attempted to use it, and it refused to retain any data. I tried saving my progress in Magician Lord and nothing happened. Sooo, it appears the card isn't working at all. Any suggestions or advice?

Maybe you need a new battery.
Try formatting the card. If that does not work read this battery replacement guide.

Ok, I tried formatting it, but the system won't recognize the card. So I guess it's safe to assume that the battery is dead. Dammit. And I don't know who's going to replace it, as I have no idea how to solder things, as required in hardMVS's memory card battery replacement guide.

If the system isn't recognizing it, then maybe the reader doesn't work...
DO other cards work in the system?
Sometimes you have to bend the pins on the reader back so the card will work....
