Thank you for purchasing the e-Reader accessory for the Game Boy Advance system.

Please note that the type of information, how the information is used, and what type of connection system is used will be different for each set of e-Reader cards. Be sure to read the e-Reader card packaging and instructions before using them with this accessory. Please carefully read this Instruction Booklet, and review the Game Boy Advance Instruction Booklet and separate Precautions Booklet that is included with the Game Boy Advance system or Game Paks before using the e-Reader accessory.
Look for this icon on trading card packaging for cards designed to be used with the Game Boy Advance e-Reader accessory.

Connecting To Other Systems (Continued) e-Reader Card Precautions
When connecting and using your e-Reader with other systems, please follow these guidelines: Make sure the power is turned OFF on all systems before attaching cables or loading Game Paks or discs. Read the instructions included with the Game Boy Advance or Nintendo GameCube game you are playing and make sure your connections are correct. Make sure the e-Reader cards and the Game Paks or discs you are using include connectivity features. Do not disconnect any cables or turn the power OFF during game play. When connecting to the Nintendo GameCube, check the instructions for the GameCube Disc you are using for which Controller Socket(s) the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable(s) is plugged into.
It is very important that you take good care of your e-Reader cards. A damaged or dirty card may not work in the e-Reader or may damage the delicate scanning mechanism inside the e-Reader. Scanning dirty e-Reader cards may contaminate the scanning device inside the e-Reader and prevent you from reading other cards that are in perfect shape. To prevent this from happening, please use the following guidelines: Do not fold, bend, tear or otherwise damage the card. Do not put tape, stickers or any other foreign objects on the card. Do not get the card wet or soiled with dirt, food or any other foreign material. Do not write on, mark on, scratch or otherwise damage the Dot Code on the card.
If you need to clean the e-Reader cards, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth.
Troubleshooting (Before seeking assistance)

Error Messages

If you are having problems with your e-Reader, try the following remedies: Turn OFF the power on the Game Boy Advance and make sure the e-Reader is fully inserted into the Game Pak Slot. Make sure that both the e-Reader card and Card Slot are clean and free of dust, dirt or other foreign material. If necessary, clean the e-Reader card with a soft dry cloth. If you are using e-Reader cards that allow you to communicate with other systems, check the connections of all cables between systems. Review Section 3, Using e-Reader Cards, and make sure you are scanning them correctly. Make sure the e-Reader card is not bent, torn or damaged in any way. Some games require more than one card to be scanned in the correct order. Be sure to read the instructions on the cards you are using. If you are connected up to another Game Boy Advance or the Nintendo GameCube, make sure that the Game Boy Advance Game Pak or Nintendo GameCube Disc includes e-Reader features.

You may see one of the following error messages when operating the e-Reader: READ ERROR - This message will happen if you try to scan an e-Reader card and the e-Reader cannot read the information in the Dot Code. This can happen for several reasons. Card is scanned too fast. Card is not touching the bottom of the e-Reader Card Slot. Card is not scanned straight. Scanning more than one card at a time. Scanning with direct bright light on the e-Reader Card Slot. Scanning a bent, damaged, dirty or modified card. Scanning a card contained in a protective sleeve or envelope. To re-scan a card, press any button to return to the "SCAN CARD" screen and try the scanning process again. TIME DELAY ERROR - This message will appear if you have selected a menu item but the e-Reader does not get any input. This can happen for several reasons.

Trying to scan a card that is not an e-Reader card. If you receive this error message, press any button to return to the previous menu item. If you continue to get this error message, refer to Section 7, Troubleshooting. REGION ERROR - This message will appear if you are trying to scan an e-Reader card made for use in another region. For example, you would get this error if you tried to scan a Japanese e-Reader card. This e-Reader will only work with e-Reader cards made for the North, Central and South American regions. e-READER MEMORY ERROR - This message will appear if there is an error in the e-Reader memory or a problem with saving information to the memory. Follow the onscreen instructions to correct the problem. COMMUNICATION FAILURE - This message will appear if there is a problem when trying to connect to or communicate with another system. Follow the on-screen instructions and review Section 6, Connecting to Other Systems. If you continue to receive error messages after following the on-screen instructions, please review Section 7, Troubleshooting.
If your e-Reader still does not operate correctly after trying the above remedies, please visit the customer service area of our web site at www.nintendo.com or call 1-800-255-3700.

Your Turn

1. Draw a card from the Deck. 2. Choose one card to Play or Discard. If you play a Coin or Item card, place it face-up in front of you. The card is now In-Play.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

1. When my opponent plays a card that affects all players such as BOB-OMB, can I use a Blocker card? Answer: No. You can only use Blocker cards when your opponent is playing a card directly against you. 2. When my opponent plays Duel cards such as SUPER WARIO, can I use Blocker cards such as MARIO and DONKEY KONG even after I lose the duel? Answer: No. You can only use Blocker cards before the duel starts. 3. When I tried to take my opponents Hand cards, they used a DONKEY KONG Blocker card to counter and took my Hand cards. Could I use SUPER MARIO to take cards from my opponent? Answer: Yes. You can use Blocker cards against Blocker cards. 4. My opponent tried to take my In-Play cards, so I am thinking about using SUPER MARIO and adding 1 In-Play Coin card to take my opponents Hand or In-Play cards. Can I look at my opponents Hand cards first before taking one of his or her In-Play cards? Answer: No. You must declare which cards, In-Play or Hand, you will take when playing the SUPER MARIO card. Once you play the card, you cannot change your choice. 25

5. GRACEFUL PRINCESS PEACH can be used to take a card from the Deck or Discard Pile. Can I take a card from the Discard Pile after checking the Deck? Answer: No. You must declare which cards, Deck or Discard, you will search before playing the GRACEFUL PRINCESS PEACH card. Once you play the card, you cannot change your choice. 6. I challenged my opponent to a Mini-Game using the BIG BOO card but they used SUPER MARIO to defend their Coin cards. Additionally, they added 1 In-Play Coin card to take my In-Play card. Can I still play the Mini-Game to prevent them taking my In-Play card? Answer: No. You cannot play the Mini-Game. Your BIG BOO card is no longer in effect because your opponent used a Blocker card. You can only counter with another Blocker card. 7. If an e-Reader is being used in the game, can I choose NOT to use it? Answer: No. If an e-Reader is available and has been used once in the game, it must be used for all e-Challenges. 8. Can I have the same Item card In-Play more than once? Answer: Yes. Although you only need one of each Item card to win the game, you can have more than one Superstars Shoes, Superstars Clothes, or Superstars Hat In-Play. You may want to have extra Item cards In-Play in case another player takes one. 26
