approximately every 10 seconds (though only because my parents would freak out if they ever found out i was playing games so i have to be ready to close as quickly as possible)if my parents aren't home...i generally forget to save....which is just as badT.T

I would use it on every game. I don't like to suddenly die after a few minutes of playing and not being able to immediately come back for round 2.

The silent air will soon be filled with horrid screams. The vague night will soon be lit by the destruction we leave in our wake. The shivery ground will soon be covered with sweltering blood. We will bring about...EndlessChaoz.

I use it ALL THE TIME. I never use the in-game save function. My biggest complaint about the DS emulator I use is that it doesn't have a save state function.

I must admit, I tend to use in-game saves more because I can transfer those to my real GBA, like say I have to go on a journey and taking a laptop just to play on a emulator is a bit of a hassle. GBAs fit in a pocket after all.

in some games, save states take the fun out of it, but in other games like medabots ax, when losing is easy and you lose so much, it becomes easier to play
