I have the same problem but the game only loads if I put pressure on the L and R buttons. If I remove the pressure the game becomes really glitchy and the sound distorts. Is there a way I could fix this or is my system doomed

Most likely, your card slot is dirty. Get a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol and give the contacts a good cleaning.

If that doesn't help then something has gone bad on your system motherboard and you're going to want to inspect the board for lifted pins or burnt traces.

Let us know how you make out.
