When [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] first visit the castle, the frames on the wall are empty. As [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 e-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]] release has the frames marked from the outset since the e-Reader levels are built in).

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. | ||
