This patch replaces the original EEPROM saving with the standard Genesis SRAM cartridge behavior. This enables the save feature to work on a standard flash cartridge, Everdrive or non-X7 Mega Everdrives (or possibly, outdated emulators that don't emulate serial EEPROM).

It works greatricheymanic2021-01-03Version 1.0

I play on a mister FPGA device, and could not figure out why my season would never save. SNES had passwords, but I was intrigued that the Genesis version had the ability to save. Now that I understand EEPROM vs SRAM, I'm stoked to have found this hack. Thank you.
