5.0 out of 5 stars An Amazing Update to an Old Favorite, December 2, 2003

While you do need a second GBA system (or a GC with a GC Player) and an eReader to make these cards useful, they do add amazing amounts to the game itself. Super Mario Bros. 3 is perhaps the best game in the series, and each pack of these cards includes at least 5 new game levels and two major "alterations" to the game. If you'd like to experience brand new SMB3 levels for a fairly low cost, I highly recommend these cards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Fun, November 28, 2003

The Super Mario Bros. 3-e cards are great. If you're stuck on a level, you can use a power-up card to get a free item. If you want to open up a White Mushroom house, scan a demo card which will show you exactly how to do it. If you beat the game, grab a Level card for a new challenge. The only problem is you have to have two GBA systems (an SP or Game Boy Player will also work) and a GBA universal link along with the E-Reader, the game, and the cards. I, however, already had all that is necessary so it worked out for me. So if you already have everything besides the cards, buy the cards.

The e-cards are great, especially the level cards. They bring something new to an already great game. But most interesting is that they bring in elements from other mario games in such as vegetables, feather, poison mushrooms, ghost houses, etc.
My only wish is that I would have snatched up all of the packs of these cards as I could at the time, they are now extremely hard to find.
The major downside to these cards is you need to buy a lot of accessories to even use them, and unless you know someone else with another GBA, you're going to need another one of those too.
