Golden Sun: The Lost Age / Password Transfer from Golden Sun

Golden Sun: The Lost Age Password Transfer from Golden Sun

Choose Bronze, Silver or Gold data and avoid entering an unnecessary long password.

Edition covered

Original Game Boy Advance sequel: Japan 2002, international release 2003. Covers Felix's adventure and transfer from the first game. Gallery images include Nintendo Switch Online framing.

Use completed first-game data

Transfer reads clear data from Golden Sun. A normal unfinished save is not a substitute. Preserve a pre-ending save in the first game if you still want to gather missed Djinn or items before generating the final transfer.

Choose the right password tier

Bronze is short and carries core information such as levels and Djinn. Silver includes more character statistics. Gold is the long option used when items and coins also matter, so choose it for a more complete carryover.

Silver61 charactersAdds detailed character statistics

Copy symbols carefully

The password is case-sensitive and long codes are easy to mistype. Work in small groups, checking each row before continuing; a single wrong character can invalidate a large amount of entry work.

Understand when carryover appears

Felix's opening party does not immediately receive all of Isaac's possessions. The transferred first-game party becomes relevant later in the story, so an unchanged early inventory is not proof that the password failed.
