Topic: Mario Party e-Reader Cards

[Jonnyboy117]

Well, it's a good idea on paper.  PUN ALERT!

According to Gaming-Age, the newest Nintendo retailer catalogue mentions an upcoming set of Mario Party cards for the e-Reader.  It seems these cards will contain multiplayer mini-games.  Presumably the games are small enough to be sent from one GBA/e-Reader combo to other GBAs, just like a "single-cart" multiplayer GBA game.

It's currently not known how many players these games will support.  Multiplayer card games aren't even feasible on the original Japanese e-Reader model; a pass-thru port for the link cable was added for the American and subsequent worldwide releases.

No release dates or prices are mentioned in Gaming-Age's article, so stay tuned for further info.
