It's okay, I still have a couple dozen waiting to be used in my Saturn.
wait was this a thing with saturns?!
maybe thats why mine stopped saving?
all of a sudden, after y2k mind you, my saturn stopped saving - atleast my shining force 3, and i always have to reset up the clock the internal clock i think.
hmmmmmm
are these easy to get and replace in my saturn?
Speaking of battery :

And, any Canadian website sell the 2032 for cheap?
I heard if you don't replace the dead battery, the Wii U makes a large beeping sound until you replace it
No offense, but this is a very misleading thread title.
This battery is for clock. Stuff like this only needs to be replaced once in 3-5 years. Same goes for GamePad battery.
Man these hype/anti-hype WiiU threads are just getting ridiculous.

It'll remind people that they had a Wii U when they rummage through their closet.
Does the internal clock actually matter?

Those things lasted about 8-10 years in the Dreamcast and in the VMUs. I dont think you'll have to worry about anything for a while.
Just be glad they are easily replaceable, unlike the dreamcast, which required you to take the system apart and solder a new battery in.
HOLY SHIT PRE-ORDER CANCELED!...
Please... like this is some"BIG" deal.
Im sure even the PS3 and Xbox run on these for their internal clocks, its just really weird they dedicated so much space in the manual to it hmmmm, wonder if it runs out way faster than others.
Replaceable watch battery to run the clock? Nintendo must not be planning on replacing the Wii U with a new generation for 10+ years!
Every device with a clock that runs with the power off needs a battery to keep time. The PS2, PS3, Xbox, 360, Gamecube, and Wii should all have batteries. PCs have them, too.
What aspect of the Wii U is it powering?
On a separate note how do you replace the internal battery on a Sega CD? Mine keeps forgetting saves.
I don´t think the 360 has an internal battery for clock settings, every time I plug off my system it resets to 2005 or so, and it has done that since the day I bought it. Further Googling seems to support this.
10 year plan.
But in 5 years they'll release Wii U Clock Battery plus for a more precise way of keeping the time.
They probably simply want to go the user friendly way, this way if in 10 years the clock die, they have a section in the manual about how to remove easily the battery. Its a good thing from Nintendo part to make it easier. Easier than on PC or GB at least...

I guess so you don't have to go outside as much.Why would it be necessary to "stock up" on batteries, at least right now? It's a goddam clock battery, it costs a minimal amount, and it's barely an issue, if at all, in any modern computer in the world ever.
The thread title is... ugh.
The graphics processor.
Hopefully it doesn't run out as fast as the Sega Saturn's.

This makes me even more nervous, you know how hard it is to design an easily replaceable part like that, takes a lot of little stuff which makes the console a bit bigger and harder to produce due to having to deal with these parts.
Its the reason why computers and other devices dont bother and just put it right on the motherboard.
Why would Ninty go to such a great length to make it so easy to change??????
Weird....
