The ONLY solution so far for this problem:

Ok, everyone here at one point has had their share of cards eaten by the card reader either at transfer, renewal, or purchase. Well, after my share of experiences at a number of arcades, this solution has always saved my ass, so I thought I'd share it with you guys. This has only been tested and successfuly approved with transfering, renewing and purchasing of cards, I'll use Inspection for the example since this is the time it most often comes up.

Ok so you sit down to what you think is your normal play of initial D, and you put your card in, well little do you know it's inspection time! So you go about what you normally do here and put your coins in for your new card, the machine then spits out your invalid and you wait...........and wait.............and wait...............*looks at watch*.......then you start thinking oh shit, what if it eats it since it's taking too long? Now comes the worse part, you see the " Card reader error, please call attendant and reset the machine" screen and you freak out! This is the part where people give up, well, instead of giving up hope and shutting off the machine and killing your card that you put soooo much money into..(this is going to be long so get ready).....Talk to the arcade attendant, ask for the person with the keys to the machine if it's not that particular arcade attendant, and ask them to please open the card reader/writer. Now here are the steps:

1. Get them to open the card reader/writer for you

2. Now you must lift up the gold plate that sits above the card that's being written on. There is a little latch to lift this plate right in front of it nearest to you, it's a staight metallic bar with a piece of plastic over it, about half the size of your pinky.

3. Now, once you have the gold plate up, you should be able to see the new card that's supposed to be written on, take that card out of the card reader doesn't have to be cautious because this card hasn't been written on and won't be written on at all.

4. Once the card is out, shut the gold plate back the way it was BUT make sure it clicks to make sure it's completely shut.

5. Close the card reader back up and press the start/view change buttons.

You should now see the "Please remove your card, this card can no longer be used" screen but it won't give you another invalid. Wait from 5 to 10 seconds and you're good to go.

The reason for this is still a mystery to me, but I'm guessing that when the new card is inserted, the sensor for the card reader/writer that detects when the card's been inserted doesn't read it, therefore can't write on it. Please, if you ever have this problem take my advice and use this information, it's the only chance you have of saving your card, DONT TURN OFF THE MACHINE. I've used this over and over to save other peoples, and my own cards, and it's been done at numerous arcades, so I know that it's not JUST the machines in my area, these are arcades all over so cal and some in santa maria. But please, use this information to your advantage, I mean, with this error already in progress, what else do you have to lose? blink.gif  Thanks for your time and I hope this works for you the way it does for me, because without it, I would have quit a loooooooonnnnnngggg time ago.

ekin: read 1st post or just look above

if no cards are in the machine than its no problem, but if there are cards in there.... try start and view change at same time, might work sometimes


btw how does step 3 ensure data isnt lost?

im just too damn afraid of buying one, it will tear that one to shreds, and i dont trust those guys at the concession stands for the theater they have the brains to fix it.

Loss: 8 quarters and a useless card if it gets shred

this has been happenin for me for a while now, n i think its my card but luckily i get inspection in 2 more plays n hopefully it wont happen again. n this mostly happens when i go to challenge someone

someone has accept challenge on, i go on n challenge him, put in my money, put in my card, waits...........waits........waits......(note: the last time i used the card it takes like 3mins for the card to eject after you finished playing with it), still waiting.........then a error pops up saying something like unable to read card or whatever, press start n view to eject it, put it in again, same thing happens long wait, do it a couple more times n it doesnt work BUT sometimes it does, i also try bending the card to see whether that works, n it forces me to use a different card

so far i have only seen this happen to me and it has not happend to my other cards

anyone know any reason y?? maybe i bent my card too much?? but i dont remember bending my card at all..........

Thanks for the site, but theres like a security guard at the place I play at. I dont wanna risk it.

And a card got jammed at the place I play at recently.The attendent wasnt there. Some guys thought they could fix it, so they turned of the machines. Poor card.
