2 possibilities.

1) the pins in the card reader that make contact with the game's contacts are bent or dirty. look in there with a flashlight and see if anything's going on. if it's dirty, try using a small brush + some isopropyl alcohol. get in there with a tweezers and try to reshape the pins if you see something bent

2) bad solder connection from the reader to the main PCB. will need to be resoldered.

good luck.
