"Metroid: Zero Mission" (2004) for the Game Boy Advance is (sort of) a remake of the original "Metroid" (1986) for the NES.

You run around, exploring the Zebes underground, picking up upgrades that let you access new areas, and trying not to die. Killing enemies doesn't score any points, but they sometimes leave energy and ammo behind. Occasionally you run into larger creatures that make your life harder.

They say this game isn't very long. We'll see.

Okay this is probably the nerdiest Game Boy Advance question I've ever asked 🤓:

I know that Super Mario Advance 4 (Mario Bros. 3 on the NES) has some extra levels that are only available if you own the e-Reader.

I own a copy of SMA4 and I would like to get those levels onto it. Obviously, I don't own the cards. What's the best way?

I found this, but I don't have a link cable. But I do own an Analogue Pocket. Maybe through sharing a memory state?
