Update: My new sd2vita has arrived, but seller send me the wrong one i ordered smiley and they send me v3.0 without case. Anyway the problem is fixed, i think it's bad contact between adapter and slot because the new one is thicker and i don't see any damage in older one. I can try to add padding on older one to make it thicker but i won't risk it for now.
Upload pics of that adapter, both sides

The one you got and the one that's failed
The new one looks something like this but black, and i think the writing is "sd2vita 3.0"(not sure).

currently stuck inside and i can't get it out lol, i don't know maybe because it's bigger, i'll try again later when i got home. The old one is at home, so i'll upload it letter together with the new one if i can get it out.

Sorry i can't get the picture of the new one it's jammed tight in there, i tried using pincer but it's stuck, i'm afraid if i force it it will damage the slot.

Welp i spoke too soon, the new sd2vita didn't last, it worked fine at first but after sometime it became unstable, and finally it failed (work sometime). When i removed it the solder point for the footing broke, so i guess the build quality is crap(i'll post pic tomorrow if i remember so you can avoid it). I'll buy another one too try once more and if it still fail then it's the slot that have issue, probably will sell this one and buy a new one.

The shipping time is too long, i buy this one just for checking. What do you suggest to buy other than smiley v2. I'll buy one later if i'm sure of the problem.
Nothing else. I have tried many, smiley is the only that had not broken(yet) for me
Just check ebay, there has to be someone close by selling them

I checked ebay but they mostly sell from usa or china, while the price is cheap the shipping cost is more than 10times the price with the same shipping time with aliexpress with 0 shipping fee. Is this the one you suggest, i'll buy one later. And what do you think about this one? it looks cooler and have better build quality.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

This is the crappy one, it come with crude cut mark which make it wider than it should and bend board, both probably is the cause for the stuck problem i had.

    some of the best selling games on the switch are wii u ports (that are priced way too high
    like come on 60 for a game thats a decade old??)

    @ColdBlitz, i forgot breath of the wild released for the Wii u

    $60 for a game that's a decade old might be unheard of on PC but actually is not uncommon on consoles

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    especially Nintendo because they only ever lower the price of games when they do a greatest hits/platinum hits/players choice re-release
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and the HD collections released for 7th gen consoles too
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but they don't seem to have done any of those for the switch yet and maybe never will

    I think we all forgot breath of the wild released for the wii u tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ I read that non-binary people identify as a blend of male and female. The point is i think i'm a blend of those and thus non binary
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Non-binary people are those who don't identify themselves exclusively as male or female.
