Summary: A Brilliant Device
Comment: For those who dont what it is the Nintendo E Reader is an add on that goes into the cartridge slot of GBA and SP (unsure about Game Boy Micro). There is a paper thin slot in the bulky add on in which you scan cards to play classic nes games, game and watch games, Animal Crossing Cards, Mario Bros 3 Cards, Pokemon TCG Cards or Promo cards given out through Nintendo Power such as Kirby Slide. The scanner is easy to use and has little trouble reading the cards.
Whats Included: Included In one new E reader is the E Reader accesory,the Classic Nes game Donkey Kong Jr, and a sample pack which includes : 3 Pokemon TCG Cards (Machop,Machoke, and Machamp), One Game and Watch Card (Manhole), and Animal Crossing Present Card.
Classic NES Games: E Reader Classic Nes Games are sold in Packs that now Retail for 1 or 2 dollars each. In the pack is 5 cards that have a code on the top and bottom, that when scanned create a perfect playable NES game. You might be thinking If the game has glitches or any other problems the answer is no. The only noticable Difference is in the Donkey Kong JR game screen appears to be a bit smushed to fit the screen.Classic Nes Games are the main reason to buy the E reader cause of there great quality and quantity.
Mario Bros 3 Cards: E cards That when linked to a game boy advance/SP with Super Mario Advanced 4: Mario Bros 3 can create levels, show video demonstration of secrets, or Give You Power ups.
Pokemon Trading Cards: Whenn Nintendo bought the pokemon trading card game they aded some special features. All cards from the Pokemon EX Series have codes on the bottom that when scanned give you information about that pokemon. Now heres where the E Reader's True Poteneial Shows, some cards have codes on the side that when combined with that pokemons evolution's(other form's) side codes create a minigame. The 3 Pokemon Cards included have a Minigame when Combined giving you a perfect demonstration. Also included in pokemon Ruby and Saphire is a card that when combined with the e reader lets your team battle a series of trainers.
Animal Crossing cards: While linking a Game Boy Advance with an e reader to a Game Cube with animal crossing you can give yourself items and letters using the special machine located in the animal crossing post office.
Game and Watch cards: Using one card with 2 bar codes on it you can play a Game and Watch Game. The only one on card ever created was Man Hole. A Game and Watch series was planned but was later dropped.
Mario party E: Thhe Only E reader game in its own category: Mario party e Includes 64 cards a Game Board and instructions. In this Mixture of board Game and Video Game you scan various cards and play minigames to get coins or items from your opponent.
Overall: The E Reader is now abondoned by nintendo meaning most likely no new games will ever be released (As it has been this way for 2 years). It is cheap to buy and works wonderfully. But due to lack of any future support you should only buy it if you are in to Nes Games, Animal Crossing, or Pokemon EX Cards. If you are into any of those than you will love this product and i recomend it.

Summary: Might be great if it worked
Comment: We have been unsuccessful with this e-reader attachment since we purchased it. Cards read once and never again. Doesn't matter if we use the GB SP or Advance. Still doesn't do anything. Don't recommend you waste your money!

Comment: The e-Reader is one of the best things that happened to Nintendos GBA. this is so SWEAT
Customer Rating:
Summary: Misinformed idiots
Comment: People who dont know hat theyre talking about bug me. The E reader is great, but im here to clear up some mis-conceptions.
1. THE E READER WORKS W/ GBA SP. You have to open it first, but then it fits. duh.
2. The E-Reader does NOT have the games already on it. The games are actually in the dot codes. Hard to believe, but true. They are not already on ur E Reader. Nintendo has dropped support of it because it was somewhat of a flop and they were gearing up 4 the DS

Summary: goodness
Comment: I love this product but I think it should be cheaper. If it was cheaper more people would buy it. But I think it works likes a marvel.
