As [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 e-Reader cards|levels]] are scanned through an [[e-Reader]], those containing an [[e-Coin]] will have the coin's frame indented and its level number in the plaque below (the game's [[Wii U]] [[Virtual Console]] and [[Game Boy Advance - Nintendo Switch Online]] releases have the frames and plaques marked from the outset since the e-Reader levels are built in). As such, the castle appears to be a sort of museum or trophy gallery. | ||
The castle has three floors of eight frames each, with the second and third floors (2F and 3F) opening to Mario and Luigi once the player scans a level containing a 9th and 17th e-Coin. The player can then teleport between floors by pressing {{button|gba|L}} and {{button|gba|R}}. However, this functionality goes unused because only eight e-Coin levels ([[Super Leaf]], [[Super Star|Starman]], [[Toad]], Mario, [[Princess Peach]], Luigi, [[Mushroom]], [[Fire Flower]]) were ever released, allowing for the completion of 1F. Prior to the Virtual Console and Switch Online releases, due to the full spread of e-Reader levels not being released outside Japan, American and Australian players were able to collect | The castle has three floors of eight frames each, with the second and third floors (2F and 3F) opening to Mario and Luigi once the player scans a level containing a 9th and 17th e-Coin.

Modifying the game's code to have 24 e-Coins collected, thereby filling all of the castle's frames, does nothing. | Modifying the game's code to have 24 e-Coins collected, thereby filling all of the castle's frames, does nothing. | ||
