Thumbs up E-reader

I'm not sure if this is retro or GBA
Well when I first saw this thing I thought to my self "dear nintendo what ever possed you to make this" Then I played it! This thing-system-deally is a must have for anyone that has a GBA
First off its got so many awesome games on it, Ballon Fight, Urban Champion, DK,DK JR, Marios Bros etc.
This is what I have so far and how I rate them.
Ballon Fight 10/10 its amazing and bizaar
Pinball 8/10 The mario mini level makes it worth it.
Ice Climbers 4/10 I cant imagine why I got it
Game and Watch manhole 9/10 I dont understand why covering manholes before people walk overthem is so fun but it is.
Pokemon minigames 5/10 Graphically they are impresive and wouldnt have run on an NES but they are not very fun
Air Hockey 7/10 Its all right
I cannot wait to get more games of this I hope that the orginal Zelda comes out for it.

Do you know if the Urban Champion or Mario Bros. cards have an AC code on the back that allows you to play them on TV if you have Animal Crossing? I have wondered if those games have it.

How does it work anyway?
Is the whole NES game ON that card??
Or do you only use the card to activate the game that is already on the reader???

Isn't it just a bar code like the ones in stores?? How could that contain a whole game??? :eek:

the entire game is on the card although i dont know if they are making a zelda game for the e-reader because I dont think that there would be a way to save the damn thing.

Also very useful for animal croosing too.

Whoa, that Zelda question has been answered... Zelda is a very large game, and nobody would want to slide 4 sides of each 30 ecards it would go on. Nintendo is just focusing on small games.

the cards 3 ranges from 1-5 it takes like five seconds and you can save one game on your e-reader so you dont constantly have to scan the cards.

I picked one up yesterday. Amazing how it actually works, and works well too. Scan too fast and it doesn't read, but scan back and forth a million times, then go on through, and it still reads the card.

Scanning 10 times to play a game is rather annoying, but I won't complain. This little thing is cool, and if they play their cards right, they could make it into a huge hit.

Collectable trading cards for PSO Card Battle anyone?
