"Scott's Stash" is almost like an off-the-cuff, really obscure podcast that Scott does all by himself and I admittedly like it more than his main channel now.
The e-reader is funny bc it was originally a Pokémon TCG thing, only for the Pokémon cards, that’s why the e in the e-reader logo looks like a pokéball. However someone down the line said “this is stupid” to which someone else said “yes, let’s use this for other games” completely missing the point of why the e-reader was stupid. Anyways, one of my favorite pieces in my collection.
Yeah when Scott was showing the individual e-reader I noticed on the packaging a normal pokemon card which confused me, now I know thanks for mentioning this
It was announced in 2001 as the Pokémon E-Reader, a year where Pokémania was on the wane. So between then and the launch they must have made the choice to remove the branding and broaden its appeal so as not to jinx it
As a self-proclaimed Animal Crossing expert, the Sanrio amiibo cards are not meant to be trading cards. The standard Amiibo cards for Animal Crossing can be traded, since the packs are randomly assorted. However, because the Sanrio series only includes 6 new villagers, it wouldn't make sense for Nintendo to market the cards as a trading card game.
That's only in the west. The Japanese version comes with 2 ramdom cards and 1 of 6 stickers. So there is a high chance you are going to get doubles if you want to collect all the cards and stickers. So trading is the easiest way to get all of them.
It's really cool for a game collector who can/would spend that kind of money on stuff we're all interested in to share all that stuff with us talking at us for half an hour. I mean, I like this stuff. Not enough to buy it, God, no. But it's almost just as cool to get a good, long look at it all. Sincerely, this is a great use of a video sharing platform. Scott can tell us stuff about video games outside of his Scott the Woz format and just flex his game collection at us. It's neat.
23:18 Hearing Scott sarcastically and excitedly talk about how corroded and disgusting his Gameboy Advance box is way more amusing than it has any right to be.
Instead of showing off some collection of Pokemon cards, or a collection of cards from literally any card game that human beings actually like at all, Scott would probably show off his e-Reader Card Collection
I have the pokemon colosseum e-reader cards that were only released in Japan and they're my favorite piece of my collection! Something about how gimmicky they are adds to the charm. I also thought my e-reader was broken when I first tried using the cards+reader as I had to rely on google translate to figure out what the menus meant while using them ingame.
@@blockacheese_ I bought my set a few years ago for around $350 but I've been seeing it sell recently for at least double with how much everything is going up
This video is making want to finally take a swing at trying to print my own e-reader cards. I downloaded archives of dot codes and forum discussions trying to crack the printing method a couple of years ago, but haven't attempted it myself. The GBA is tied with the PS3 for my all time favorite console, so went through a phase in my late teens trying to get all of the enhancing/connector cable accessories. I was lucky to borrow/return a friend's Game Shark in my last week of high school to force all of the special events in my copies of Emerald and Fire-Red, since he was the last person I personally knew who had one. In the inflated market we are in, I am very happy to have collected as much of it as I had.
4:36 Scott's not kidding. I used to play games on a white GBA. By the time I sold it, it had terrible dark stains/fingerprints near its buttons and directional cross just from normal handling.
21:41 So funny thing about this: this set of the TCG, unique for having e-Reader dock codes on the cards, included holographic rares (as per usual), _but_ the holographic cards *do not have* the dock codes printed on them, so if you got a rare card, you couldn't use the e-Reader features associated with that card.
I just bought an EReader for 25$ and they had the DK Jr. Cards for 2$ loose. This local place has several sealed packs,but they want way to much. It'd be nice to get a couple more sets at a reasonable price. I used to have it as a child. Not the best, but like you said an interesting piece of history and neat collectable.
I have the Mario Party e-Reader game as well. I played it a grand total of once with a friend when he came over. In fact, the e-Reader itself was so short lived that I only got to buy a card pack once before it was discontinued.
I agree with the E-reader logo, since I only ever saw it on Pokémon cards and NO ONE HAD ONE I thought it was just another symbol for Pokémon like a energy or evolution
Using the e-reader with Super Mario Advance 4 was “fun”. Since the e-reader occupies the game cartridge slot, you needed to connect it to *another* GBA, putting SMA4 in one GBA and the e-reader in the other, to get the cards to work. I think I convinced a friend to let me use his and managed to play like one custom level. Besides that one time, I couldn’t play the custom levels because I only had one GBA. EDIT: Scott does mention this later in the video, but I’ll leave my comment.
I only had one opportunity to transfer the new levels to my copy of Mario 3. The messed up part is, you could only save the levels to your cart once you beat them. I was stuck with 10 level cards and only 2 being playable.
When I was a kid, I went to a friend's house, and I'm pretty sure it was his birthday, but everyone who came got E-Readers. It was a very strange thing.
Aww, the e-reader seemed like such a magical device in my younger days, but I guess not everyone else loved it as much as I did. I always thought it was cool that all the code for the games were in such tiny dots literally out in the open to be scanned like that, like if microfiche and qrcodes had a baby. I even remember trying to print out copies at home, but alas the resolution needed to print at that scale was quite demanding. I felt like they just barely scraped the surface of the cool things you could do with encoded data on cardstock before people got bored of it and it went the way of the dodo. The Pokémon cards were such a great little pile of easter eggs though. The shorter side just being a small dex entry, but the longer side could be all sorts of surprises like minigames or utilities or tiny vignettes. The coin flip tool was my favourite, being able to do coin flipping for any board game in a more entertaining form.
Only Scott could create a 28 minute video about the e-reader in which he spends over half the video just talking about the box and still make it entertaining. Really looking forward to that video on the "L" button after this
I remember when the e-reader launched. I've been in gaming retail that long (actually longer). It was such a massive flop. I just remember the Nintendo rep coming by and giving us all these information pamphlets to help educate what the e-reader was. Literally no one cared. Even as a giant Nintendo fan I looked at that device completely bewildered. Like who was this for? No kid wanted it and no one older was looking for it. I never understood who the intended audience was supposed to be.
Watching you open the Gameboy Advance box (minus the corroded batteries) made me feel some type of way. I remember getting that same one for Christmas and being over the moon. So long ago.
I had this growing up. So much fun setting up, although my parents were so annoyed that we were young children and didn’t understand the concepts of the “e-reader”
Regarding the fun of buying card packs. I like both knowing what u get and not. As a magic the gathering player I love cracking new packs seeing what I got. But it does come to a point where I’m like alright go in the shop and buy singles of what I need but didn’t get.
How dare you, Scott. I’m currently neck-deep buying all the e-reader shit-CIB e reader and e+ reader from Japan, sealed toys-r-us promo manhole cards, every sealed pack and a set of club Nintendo Pikmin cards with the binder, and the one thing on my list I still haven’t come close to checking off is this damn e-reader bundle, and now here you are showcasing it to the world! They’re already so expensive, Scott, how could you do this to me? 😔 great vid tho thx for posting it
I’ve got a binder with all the Pokémon ereader games including Japanese cards played using a Japanese reader. Also the USA games made for the e reader. I loved the idea of it as a kid
Oh, Scott, the history of Pokémon card printing in the US goes: Wizards of the Coast > Nintendo > The Pokémon Company international. Nintendo does own about a 1/3rd stake in the Pokémon Company, so they kinda still print them.
I think another funny thing about the e-reader having all these NES games is that most of them were available in Animal Crossing, and you could play them on your GBA. Further adding to the redundancy of this product.
I swear to you I clicked this video only because of the title and started watching to almost instantly say okay, I like this guy, he sounds like Scott, then I looked down to subscribe.....
I feel like the E-Reader would've been more of commercial success if they did the following: 1. Print the dot codes on both sides and at both ends, so you don't need so many cards. 2. Allowed you to save more than 1 thing. 3. Include a built in cartridge reader.
They couldn’t fit a whole NES game on one card because the total capacity of an e•reader card was just shy of 4 kilobytes across a wide and short side. What they could have done to make the NES games collectible is to do blind bag games, where your set of 5 cards are all to one game, but you wouldn’t know what game you were getting until opened. Pair them with a themed clip to keep the cards together and you can make the whole set a collectible commodity.
@@supremechaosbeing2696 Geez/Jeez was actually derived from Jesus and is apart of a larger group of words called "minced oaths" which replace "profane" words with a more acceptable word.
@@supremechaosbeing2696 yup, happens with lots of words that are used as curses - the real words are seen as too offensive, so people make up new ones that are similar but sound just enough different. Heck, Dang, Frick, etc, all the same kind of adaptations from the original words
Watching him open that GBA hurt. It's extremely difficult to even find them, this was the only listing I could find: www.ebay.com/itm/284319495449?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28 And the GBA he opened has been inside that e-reader box ever since it was released in the store. So that means the box has never been scratched, bumped, or damaged in any sort of way.
the existence of this bundle suggests the existence of someone out there that got a gameboy advance as a kid and the only games they ever played were off e reader cards
"Scott's Stash" is almost like an off-the-cuff, really obscure podcast that Scott does all by himself and I admittedly like it more than his main channel now.
oddly enough it’s really good background noise
@@radiantstarlight0428 I agree, it's good to just pop on then start a game or clean up
guys he did it, he talked about pokémon again
"A must-have for gamers and collectors alike?"
Did Nintendo not know that gamers would be the only people who would care enough to collect them?
I love how even Scott knows this shit is ridiculous, but is still chill enough to not technically care, anyhow.
The e-reader is funny bc it was originally a Pokémon TCG thing, only for the Pokémon cards, that’s why the e in the e-reader logo looks like a pokéball.

As a self-proclaimed Animal Crossing expert, the Sanrio amiibo cards are not meant to be trading cards. The standard Amiibo cards for Animal Crossing can be traded, since the packs are randomly assorted. However, because the Sanrio series only includes 6 new villagers, it wouldn't make sense for Nintendo to market the cards as a trading card game.
Glad someone said this so there isn’t any confusion

If they wanted them to be collectable but only 6, they should have made them into $20 e-shop cards.

Watching scott open packs really gives me that special kind of serotonin

I love Scott sitting on the floor and talking, it's a nice relaxing time.

Word on the street is it’s not the floor. He carpeted a desk.

The berry thing with the EReader is actually pretty crazy. It was the only way to get a whole slew of berries that were otherwise not in the game
I want to start seeing speed runs for scanning e-Reader sets. Mine is just sitting in a storage cube crying.
