Why can't I load my saved game in My Boy Free?

Why can't I load my saved game in My Boy Free? - Unrecognizable woman with son using tablet at home

I was playing Pokemon Fire Red in My Boy Free on Android.
I saved the game, then when I get back on my game I click Loading State and it says you need to buy the premium My Boy Free to load your saved game.
Do I have to save from My Boy Free or from the game itself?



Best Answer

The only way for you to actually get those saves is through buying the premium version.

So your progress is basically gone until now. However you can save from the game itself, not the emulator. I play Pokemon on the emulator myself and the only way to save is through "start > save". It will mostly not influence your game until you get to some bosses where having on the spot saving makes it easier.

    Answer 2

    You have to save from the start-menu of the game, not from the emulator's menu.

    If you're afraid you've lost some progress, you can load the savedata from whichever (as far as I know) emulator, so if you get the Premium version now, you could load back what you saved in the Free version.

    Answer 3

    You have to save from the game itself, as you would do when using a GBA. Save states are a feature of the emulator.

    Answer 4
