Sega Saturn asks for date/language every boot (clock battery) and preventive recap
A Saturn that loses its saves and asks for the language, date and time at every start-up has a flat CR2032 backup battery. Swapping it is a five-minute job; while the console is open, a capacitor refresh matched to your board revision is sensible preventive work on these ageing consoles.
