E-Reader Support
The Japanese version of F-ZEROファルコン伝説 was one of the few supported Game Boy Advance games that could be linked with the Japanese カードeリーダー+ (e-Reader as it was called in North America and Australia). Once the e+ cards are scanned in, it would create a program to send data to the game (a Game Boy Advance link cable is required) which would unlock machines, extra courses or challenges (staff ghosts).
The e+ cards could be brought in two types of packs. The “Pillow Pack” includes 1 Machine, 2 Course and 2 Challenge cards. The “Carddass Pack” which could be brought in Bandia’s card vending machines (hence the name carddass) came with 2 e+ cards and 1 Character card.
This feature was not available in the North American and European versions of the game, due to the fact the e-Reader was unpopular in North America and the e-Reader was never released in Europe.

Famous quotes containing the word support:
“Every winter the liquid and trembling surface of the pond, which was so sensitive to every breath, and reflected every light and shadow, becomes solid to the depth of a foot or a foot and a half, so that it will support the heaviest teams, and perchance the snow covers it to an equal depth, and it is not to be distinguished from any level field. Like the marmots in the surrounding hills, it closes its eyelids and becomes dormant for three months or more.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
