A Japanese Sys 3.0 card will work if the TG16 is modded for region switching.
Well I cleaned the card and the system really well still didn't work so I decided to open the card up since it was broken anyway. Did confirm the card was bad the legs on one of the chips had separte from the card on all the other chips including one side of this chip the legs are sealed in a hard black substance I figure to prevent damage, I'm guessing they missed one side.
