-.) Intro:
It's been nearly six years since I last updated this list. After working
on the finishing touches to my Animal Crossing amiibo card set, I felt like I
needed to go back and make a few tweaks to this. Nothing major, just a few
things. Fix some grammar issues, tweak some of the lists. Go ahead and add the
eight additional English e-Reader cards that did not have a release in the US.
If you happen to be reading this anytime after the update, feel free to shoot me
an e-mail at theunclebob@hotmail.com - yes, I *still* have an old Hotmail
address.
So, for fun, a few years ago, I put together a bunch of information on the
Game and Watch-e Reader set that never materialized. If you're reading this,
you're probably interested in reading a bit about them as well. Head over to
http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/?topic=32861 for everything I could
scrounge together on them.
And finally, the thing that made me really want to update this - 2016 was a
GREAT year for fans of the e-Reader! What? 2016? Did I bump my head? No!
Nintendo released an amazing addition to the Wii U Virtual Console this year.
Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3. Back in the olden days, this was
probably the best example of e-Reader usage out there, adding more levels,
power-ups and other kinds of fun to the game. Obviously, the Wii U doesn't
support the e-Reader, but it *did* come pre-loaded with ALL of the e-Reader
levels! This means we finally had the first official means of playing many of
the e-Reader levels that were never released here in the US! Whoo! Sadly, this
version did not support the P Switches - so it's not 100% perfect, but it's
still great. Highly recommend for all e-Reader fans to make this purchase.
------------------------
1.) Classic NES Series:
There are 13 games in the Classic NES Series of e-Cards. Each e-Reader
comes packed with either Donkey Kong Jr. or Pinball and all 13 games are
sold separately for a suggested retail of $4.99 each.

2.) Animal Crossing Series:
The Animal Crossing-e cards are a spiffy series of cards created to work
with the Game Cube title "Animal Crossing". There are several types of cards
with in the four series.
Special Character and Character cards show pictures of various town folk
on the front side and both a key code and dot-codes on the back side (along
side information on the character pictured on the front of the card). Scanning
the e-card at the eTM in the Post Office will give you one item, while mailing
the key code printed on the back of the card to anyone in your town will net
you a different item. Also, mailing the key code to the character on the
regular character card will may get you an NES game. There are a total of 275
Character cards in the set, with 38 of those being "Special Character" cards.
For fun, you can scan the card without having your e-Reader connected to your
GCN and get a special letter from the Character on the card.
The second type of card in the Animal Crossing series is the "Town Tune"
card. These cards feature a drawing on the front and a tune on the back. You
can go to the Town Tune board in your Animal Crossing game and either manually
change the tune to match that on the back of the card or connect your e-Reader
to your GCN and scan the card to have it change on it's own. Scanning the card
without having the e-Reader connected will let you hear the tune on the card.
There's a total of 15 Town Tune Cards.
Next up are the Design cards. The design cards feature a design that you
can either scan into or manually create in your Animal Crossing game. The
cards show the various designs either in use on a character (from various
angles) or on the floor/wall in your house. There are 15 Design cards in the
set.
Series II of the Animal Crossing-e cards introduced two new kinds of
cards. The first of these was the "Sibling" cards. These cards feature two
characters from the game - that are siblings - on the front of the card and two
- count 'em, two! - dot codes and two key codes on the back of the cards. As
with the character cards, you can either scan the dot codes at the eTM or mail
the key code to one of the various characters in the game to get an item.
There are a total of five Sibling Cards. The fifth Sibling card (#G01) is
still called a sibling card, even though Cooper and Booker aren't actually
siblings.
The second "new" card introduced with Series II was the player cards.
These cards feature the various faces that both the girl and boy player may get
when starting the game, dressed in one of the various outfits the character may
receive. The back of the card has two dot-codes that you scan into the
e-Reader (without the GCN) and play a mini-game. To start the various
mini-games, you'll be asked to scan anywhere from one to six character cards
to complete the game. Meeting certain conditions within the mini-games will
give you passwords that you can mail to characters in the GCN game to get
items. There are eight "Boy" player cards and eight "Girl" player cards for
a total of 16 player cards.
And finally, Series Four introduced the short-lived NES Classic Game
cards. There are two cards in this series, and scanning them will net you
either a copy of the NES classics "Ice Climber" or "Mario Bros." Since
NoA originally only planned for four series of Animal Crossing cards, it
would appear that these are the only two NES cards we'll be getting.
Here's some quick facts on the Animal Crossing cards, followed by the
check list. At the end of this section, I'll cover the two promotional Animal
Crossing-e cards that have been released.

Packed in with the North American release of the e-Reader was a promotional
Animal Crossing card. This card features a pair of AC screen shots, a plug for
the game and K.K. and Rover on the card. Scanning it at the eTM in the Post
Office will give you a K.K. Slider song (K.K. Ska), or mailing it to a neighbor
will net you a Gold Stereo and the same song.
DP PR NES Link:
The December 2002 issue of Nintendo Power Magazine (Issue #163) contained
a promotional Animal Crossing-e card, the "NES Link" Design Card (Card #PR)
featuring an 'Legend of Zelda'-era Link sprite holding up a piece of the
Triforce (presumably either the Triforce of Wisdom or the Triforce of Power)
and the Nintendo Power logo. It was attached to a sheet detailing how to use
the card/e-Reader with the GCN/Animal Crossing along with a picture of the
front of the card.
-----------------------Animal Crossing Series Total: 328 e-Cards-----
3.) Mario Party-e:
Shipped from Nintendo on the 17th of February, 2003, this set comes packed
in an box much like those of the Pokémon pre-constructed theme decks and
includes a tear-resistant play mat for game play and an instruction manual!
Suggested retail on this deck is $9.99. The deck itself consists of a total of
64 cards, 29 of which are unique and only 11 of which are actual e-cards. Each
of the e-cards contains it's own, unique mini-game. Below is a list of the
cards contained within the game deck. If the card title is followed with a
number, that indicates how many of that card is included in the deck (if
there's no number, then only one card is in the deck). If the card is marked
with an *, then that means that the card is an e-card and contains a mini-game.
The card numbers come from the last two digits of the P/N number located on
the bottom of the card.
#01 Coin (x24) #02 Superstar's Hat (x4)
#03 Superstar's Clothes (x4) #04 Superstar's Shoes (x4)
#05 Superstar (x4) #06 Mario
#07 Super Mario #08 Luigi
#09 Super Luigi #10 Donkey Kong

#16 Chain Chomp #18 Shy Guy
#19 Goomba #20 Bowser*
#21 Koopa Troopa #22 Boo
#23 Two Boo #24 Yoshi*
#25 Big Boo* #26 Waluigi*
#27 Super Waluigi* #28 Wario*
#29 Super Wario* #30 Coin (Special Bonus Card)
Card #30, 'Coin (Special Bonus Card)' was a -gasp- special bonus card
that was included with the June 2003 issue (#177) of a magazine called
"GamePRO". This card acts like a regular coin card within the game (it
isn't an actual e-card - i.e.: it features no dot code) except that it plays
as two coins instead of one. A handy card - if you're playing the game, I
suggest removing one regular coin card and replacing it with the special
bonus card (to keep the deck even). Another suggestion is to attempt to get
multiple copies of this card and replace the number of coin cards with two
coin cards (preferably a number equal to the number of players that are
playing).
--------------------------------Mario Party-e Total: 11 e-Cards-----
4.) Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3
Probably the best and neatest e-cards released to date, these cards
semi-officially came out on October 20th/21st. There have been seven
promotional cards released along with two "sets" of cards released in
packages of 18 cards each. Two of the promotional cards released were
packed in with every new copy of Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3.
The other five promotional cards were packed in special copies of Super
Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 sold at Wal-Mart stores within the USA -
these cards were included along with the two regular promo cards packed in the
box.
In each package of 18 cards - which retail for $5.99 each, there are five
demo cards, five level cards and eight power-up cards and a promotional card
displaying an advertisement for the Pokémon Battle-e cards (this card is not
an e-card and contains no dot-code).

5.) Pokémon: Ruby and Sapphire
The Pokémon Battle-e series of cards was released on October 20th. These
cards are designed to be used with Pokémon: Ruby and Sapphire games for the
Game Boy Advance. The packs contain 18 e-cards and two "checklist" cards and
retail for $5.99 each. There are three packages of cards, each with two
subsets and two berry cards per package. Also, the "checklist" cards are
*not* e-cards and contain no dot-codes. The first two Battle-e cards were
actually released months before these packages, one each included in Pokémon
Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire. The Lady Astrid card that was packed with Pokémon
Sapphire originally contained a spelling error – one of Mawile's attacks was
incorrectly spelled "Iron Defence". Later releases of this card corrected the
spelling to "Iron Defense".
Given away at the 2003 E³, at various promotions (usually held at Toys R
Us) within the US during the summer of 2003, and included with an issue of
Nintendo Power was the EON Ticket. This card allows the player to unlock
passage to the Southern Island within the game and capture a particular rare
Pokémon (depending upon which version of the game you have). No matter where
you managed to get the card (E³, TRU, or Nintendo Power), the card itself is
identical. The E³ release came packaged in a brochure with a gold E³ stamp on
it. The Toys R Us release included the same brochure (without the E³ stamp, of
course). The Nintendo Power release did not include this brochure. This
"manual" contains complete details on how to use the card and what you get for
using it.
Finally, when the e-Reader was released in Australia, it came packed with a
different assortment of promotional e-Reader cards, including four completely
new trainers to battle!

6.) Pokémon: TCG - Wizards of the Coast
Since the release of the e-Reader, the Pokémon Trading Card game has
had two different publishers. The original publisher of the game, Wizards
of the Coast (owned by major toy maker Hasbro) published three sets of e-cards
and a small handful of promotional cards (listed two sections down). The
Wizards of the Coast cards featured two sets of dot codes, a bottom-side and
a left-side. The bottom-side dot codes featured information on the Pokémon
and the card itself while the left-side dot codes featured mini-games, hidden
attacks (for use in the TCG), animations and other fun things. Check out the
references section on where to go for more info on what these neat cards can do.

7.) Pokémon: EX TCG - Nintendo of America
Following Wizards of the Coast's years of success with the Pokémon
series, Nintendo of America took over the publishing duties of the series
starting in mid-2003. Nintendo of America has currently released four sets
of Pokémon cards that have dot codes on them along with a nice amount of
promotional e-cards. Unfortunately, NoA's cards only have a bottom-side
dot code, meaning no mini-games or any other fun things. Just bottom-side
dot codes with Pokémon and card information on them.
With the Nintendo of America publishing came a card ID number. Each of
the cards published by NoA features a nine digit code located in the bottom,
right hand corner (in the form of XXX-XXX-XXX - each "X" being either a
number or letter). These codes will always be different from card to card
- no big deal here. However, you may notice that on many occasions, these
codes can vary on the same card (different copies of the same card, of
course). What makes this whole thing interesting is that I've personally
seen up to four different codes on the same card. Also, I've seen foil
versions and non-foil versions of cards that have the same code and I've seen
'em with different codes. So it's all very confusing. Nintendo of America's
official statement doesn't say what these codes are for, except that they're
for internal use only and they're not meant to be used within the Trading
Card Game, nor are they meant for collecting. But, of course, they are
variants and it's quite likely that someone might want to collect them all.
I, however, have no plans to do such - Way to costly for me... So, if
you're looking for a complete catalog of all of these codes, you're out of
luck - sorry! Feel free to take this task upon yourself - if you need help,
let me know and I'll be happy to send any info I can on to you.

9.) General Promotional Cards.
This section covers the promotional e-Reader cards that don't really
fit into other categories.
Promo Quick List -
2002 E³ Promo Pack: Kirby Contest Card
Manhole-e variant
In-store freebie: Air Hockey-e
Australian Pack: Hockey Card-e
Sample Pack: Manhole-e (with e-Reader)
Pokémon Channel Promos: The Pikachu Star
The Kyogre Constellation
Poké A la Card
Jirachi
Nintendo freebie: Kirby Slide Card
Card Descriptions:
The first set of e-Reader cards in the states were promotional cards
given away at 2002's E³ Convention. Two of the cards were Pichu and Hoppip
from the Pokémon: Expedition-e series. The third card in this set is a
variant Manhole-e Classic e-card. This card has an E³ logo on the front side
of the card (in the left-hand side, bottom corner), a checkerboard background
on the back side of the card, and a few other minor cosmetic changes. The
fourth card in this series was apparently the keeper - a special Kirby card!
This card, when swiped though the e-Reader at Nintendo's E³ booth, would tell
you if you were the lucky winner of some various Nintendo-related prizes. The
card I have wasn't a winner. The four cards came in a foil wrapper with
various e-Reader related graphics and information.
The first promotional card that made it's way out to the general public
was Air-Hockey-e. Released with the e-Reader on September 16th, it was given
away at most Toy's R Us (where I got mine), Gamestop, Electronic Boutique, or
FAO Schwartz locations (and there were rumored reports of people finding them
at other places, such as Wal-Mart and what not). The individual card contains
dot codes on both sides allowing you to play a game of Air-Hockey on your GBA!
Check around on eBay if you're needing this one. When the e-Reader was released
in Austrailia, it contained different promotional cards, including a new version
of Air Hockey-e, with all new artwork, but the same game included on the card.
Also included with the release of the e-Reader was a second copy of the
only Game & Watch e-Reader card currently on the market, Manhole-e. This card
is very different than the one given out at the 2002 E³, but the game on it is
exactly the same.
Included with the release of the Gamecube game "Pokémon Channel" were three
promotional e-Reader cards "The Pikachu Star", "The Kyogre Constellation" and
"Poké A la Card". When "Pokémon Channel" was released in Australia, for some
reason, "The Kyogre Constellation" was replaced with an all-new card, "Jirachi".
A Kirby Slide Puzzle card was released via Nintendo Power Magazine,
Tips and Tricks Magazine and various Nintendo related promotions. This card,
when scanned i
nto the e-Reader, lets you play a slide puzzle featuring Kirby!
This card is a promotion for the 2003-04 "FOX Box" Saturday morning line up of
shows. It's interesting to note, aside from Kirby, the Ninja Turtles and such,
this card has Sonic on it... I guess this the first (and only) show of 3rd party
support for e-Reader cards. ;)
