e-Reader to come out September 16th
by VGLN Staff

Sunday, August 11, 2002

Donkey Kong Jr,, Balloon Fight, and Pinball are among the first titles.

Nintendo of America will release its Game Boy Advance accessory, the e-Reader, on September 16. The device will come bundled with: one classic Nintendo game (Donkey King Jr. or Pinball), a Game & Watch Manhole e-card, three Pokemon The Card Game e-cards and one Animal Crossing e-card.

Five NES titles in total will be turned into GBA-playable games through data downloading via the e-Reader: Donkey Kong Jr., Balloon Fight, Pinball, Tennis and Excitebike. Card packs for these games will retail for $4.95.

The e-Reader will carry a suggested retail price of $39.95. It can also be used to unlock new features and environments in GameCube titles, with a GBA acting as an intermediary.
