Hardware How the fuck did the SD Card slot get this dusty?

[WiiCube_2013]

I tend to clean it from time to time but god damn this is way too excessive of dust which I never expected to see on my Wii U's SD Card slot:

I'll have to use a hoover to clean this cause a q-tip won't do the job.

My other consoles with USB/Card slots never had this issue so just what the hell did Nintendo do?!

Close the fucking slot.

Perhaps a hidden feature of the Wii U is to collect massive amounts of dust. LOL.

Close the fucking slot.

And it was. I rarely have it open.

Step 1: Collect dust
Step 2: Combine dust into giant robot.
Step 3: World domination.

Consoles aren't made to be opened and cleaned, they're basically plug & play so any hoovering is external.

Nah, I didn't. lol

I have no idea how it got that much in there.

How the heck???

My sd card door is ALWAYS opened and there isn't such amount of dust...

I also always keep an sd card in though.

Since I have a dummy SD Card I'll probably put it in there just to see if it makes less dust, it probably will, hopefully.

But seriously, this is fucking unbelievable! What the hell happened with Wii U?! :-S

this is what happens when the wiiu has no gaemes

I dunno... Clean your stuff more often? I haven't undusted my wiiu for the last 2 months, and there is not that much dust for the entire console lol.

But I do clean it, it just happens it collected dust way too quickly. If you knew me you'd know I hate dirty stuff.

Then something is wrong in your house lol.

I swear I never saw such amount of dust in my entire life in game consoles.

Nothing's wrong. The problem is the Wii U. It collects dust.

Mine too, but never that much lol.

 

[thorasgar]

Does the Wii U use positive or negative air pressure for cooling? If negative it is likely there is some sort of leak internally around the SD slot so air being sucked in through there. OR Something isn't grounded correctly with the slot so it is acting as a dust magnet. OR You just play the thing to damn much, Mr. 10k.

 

[stomp_442]

Maybe the normal air inlet is clogged so it sucks in air from where ever it can.

This is the video that I watched to disassemble my U.

Laptops also aren't meant to be opened.
Nor do tellies.

I just take them apart and clean them, fuck what manufacturers say, I want me shit to keep on working.
