The Game Boy Advance e-Reader Bundle

I pop open the Game Boy Advance e-Reader bundle box and see what's inside.

Main Channel: @ScottTheWoz

[jtessexpress]

"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.

guys he did it, he talked about pokémon again

[iriskrane]

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.

"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?

[skippychurch]

I love how even Scott knows this shit is ridiculous, but is still chill enough to not technically care, anyhow.

[peytobrock]

"Wow, I can't get enough of these sealed E-reader boxes!"
-a phrases said by no one ever, except Scott

[harparp]

I think it’s neat that there were essentially Animal Crossing Amiibo cards before Amiibo

[pavloverboy]

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.

I love how at 26:54, Scott lifts the cards in sync with the "coin" sound of the music... ...TWICE!

[jaji]

This entire channel is one big flex.
And I love it.
Edit: Damn, I can't believe how sexy that pristine condition gba box looks.

[Socioromanticism]

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.

Gotta love scott’s 17 minutes and 30 seconds of foreplay before actually opening the box.

[jacscar]

psychiatrist: so... what is your addiction...

scott: ya heard of the e reader

[robotortoise]

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.

[Overfletch]

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.

[randoml]

"Getting into the E-reader in terms of... wasting my money" is such a ridiculously Scott thing to say and I love it.

[seanyproductions]

There’s definitely gonna be a Scott the Woz episode on the e-reader soon

[jorblor]

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

[ChristopherMoom]

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

[emilyvilleneuve]

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.
