The '''Nintendo e-Reader''', or '''Nintendo e+''' in Japan, is a [[Game Boy Advance]], Game Boy SP, and Nintendo DS add-on device that reads a special strip on e-Reader cards via an LED scanner. It can connect to the GameCube via a Game Boy Advance to Nintendo GameCube Link Cable. The purpose of the cards is to unlock mini-games, items, levels or functions for games on the GBA, or as games in and of themselves.

There are multiple available packs of ''[[Pikmin series|Pikmin]]'' e+ cards, released only in Japan after the release of ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', called ''Pikmin Puzzle Cards'' (for) ''e+'' ({{j|ピクミンパズルカードe+|Pikuminpazurukādo e|Pikmin Puzzle Cards-e}}). Each card contains a number of simple ''Pikmin''-based mini-games, which can be played by connecting the e+ to a Game Boy Advance or Game Boy Player connected to a GameCube in which the ''Pikmin 2'' disk is placed. Due to region locking, running these mini-games require that the GameCube, e+, and copy of ''Pikmin 2'' to be the Japanese versions. The Game Boy Advance and Game Boy-to-GameCube connector can be from any region.
