*Another ''Kirby''-themed e-Reader Card unrelated to ''Kirby Slide'' was included in a very rare promotional pack given away at the [[wikipedia:E3 2002|E3 2002]] event. When swiped through the e-Reader in front of Nintendo representatives at the stage, it would tell whether or not it is a winning card. Only 100 second-place and 10 first-place cards were distributed, which when exchanged for a prize, were ripped apart. It is considered the rarest e-Reader Card produced.<ref>[https://blog.pricecharting.com/2012/04/top-5-most-valuable-e-reader-cards.html PriceCharting - Top 5 Most Valuable e-Reader Cards]</ref>

Rename this page! Notice: It has been suggested that this article be renamed to Kirby Puzzle.
Please discuss this proposal on the talk page, or rename the article if appropriate.

Reason: Kirby Puzzle is the official internal name of the game when scanned with the e-Reader. I think Kirby Slide should instead be a re-direct as it's only printed on the card in a sentence "Do the Kirby slide! This card contains a FREE game!" and not necessarily an official name.

This article is about an e-Reader game made by 4Kids Entertainment, Inc., and should not be confused with KIRBY-e.

Kirby Slide,[2] also known as Fox Box Kirby-e Card[1] or Kirby Puzzle,[3] is a simple, eight-block sliding puzzle that was released as an e-Reader title on the Game Boy Advance. The card was bundled with Nintendo Power vol. 175 (January 2004)[1] and Tips & Tricks, and given away at Toys "R" Us stores.[4] This game was made to promote Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, and the sliding puzzle is even based on Kirby's main artwork from the series.

After completing the puzzle, the game displays a simple congratulatory message, and then offers the player to either restart the puzzle or quit back into the e-Reader menu.
