When Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 originally came out on the Game Boy Advance, it supported Nintendo’s old e-Reader device. Players could scan e-Cards to add in various content, including levels.

Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 is set to launch on the Japanese Wii U Virtual Console next week. Fortunately, it will be possible to access e-Reader levels. It seems that these can be accessed on the data select screen. Of course, the e-Reader device itself is not compatible.
