Swap games on your Meggy Jr with the EEPROM Restorer

Spotted in the MAKE Flickr pool:

Love your Meggy Jr, but wish you could save the state of your games and share them with your friends? Well, you’re in luck! Sean Carney has released a Backup & Restore EEPROM sketch that will allow you to save whatever is in your EEPROM memory, and restore it later. Now you can prove to everyone how many lives you had in the snake game!

The initial sketch is a simple sketch that you upload into the Meggy. It provides a complete sketch which will restore the EEPROM over the serial connection. All you need to do to restore the EEPROM is copy the serial output into a blank sketch and upload it.
