I went to play Lunar on my X Eye today and the game said, "Lunar save data was destroyed please see the manual." If anyone has a manual and wouldn't mind helping a brotha out, it would be appreciated, thanks.

i took out the disc but kept the RAM cart in. powered on the system which took me to some screen showing the systems internal RAM and the RAM cart. I selected each and then selected "format." Powered off the system put the disc back in, powered it up and it played no problems.

Might want to replace the RAM carts battery just incase!

Possibly (but I doubt it) at Radio Shack or a local electronics components store. However you may need to order it from an electronics store online like Digi-Key. I've never replaced a SCD RAM Cartridge battery myself so you may want to post a question in the Technical and Restoration Society forums about sources for Sega CD RAM Back-Up Cartridge batteries. I'm sure you'd find your answer there. Hell, I don't even remember the classification number of the battery off the top of my head but it's a really big button cell, like the size of a silver dollar almost.
