ok, so i just bought an used wiiU (the only one i could find at a reasonable price) and when i tried to hack it with the Tiramisú method i got the FSGetMountSource error, i inspected the wiiU and realized that the pins are like they are in the pic, i have already tried 3 different micro SD's with different adapters (one is new and i bought it today 12/05/23) and the wiiU hasn't been able to read none of them, i guess the pins are bent since they're pointing up, but i don't really know how they should look, and i haven't been able to find a picture of a non-damaged SD slot to confirm it. Any assistance would be appreciated, especially if i don't have to open my console or do any solder work

all SD's are FAT32, one is 8GB (i think it's the one that works the best since VWii menu takes longer to reject it), one is 128GB and the other one is 32GB
the VWii menu also detects that they're inserted but can't read any of them

sorry if my post looks awkward, i'm a normie that doesn't really use forums

Pointing up means pointing to the contacts of the SD card so that's good.

Not 100% sure but I think the pin in the middle is bended as it does not point up like the others.
