→Using No$GBA
No$GBA offers actual full hardware emulation for e-Reader, but its GBA emulation, while very decent and with save state support, isn't the best out there. You can still export your save at will.
'''Emulator: ''' Open the e-Reader BIOS. It's a regular GBA ROM. <br />The very first time it's loaded, it will save some e-Reader specific configuration, then reset the emulator. After that it's all good.<br />'''In-game, BIOS: ''' Press A (or "Select" for a hidden bonus :P). Choose "Scan Card".<br />'''Emulator: ''' A window should pop-up. Now you can choose the e-Card roms (often RAW, but can be also BIN, or BMP/JPG images) you'll need. Choose the file and click OK.<br />'''In-game, BIOS: ''' A "Scan Card" message appears, and the data is loaded.
If the application (NES game, minigame, promotional app) is stored in multiple e-Cards, the game will let you know ("You need [n] more Dot Code(s) to start. Scan [Application Name] 2/[n].") In that case:
'''Emulator: ''' Click "File, Load e-Reader Dotcode". Choose the next e-Card image file. <br />'''In-game, BIOS: ''' In the same screen, press A to Scan Code. The data should be loaded. If you tried to do so before loading the next file, the BIOS would say you have already scanned it. Rinse and repeat until you get all parts.
If you're done with all parts (could be one part in many cases), and all is fine, the BIOS would suggest you save the data to the e-Reader's SRAM. (You can then conveniently grab the sav file for use with other emulators).
