Urban Champion-e is an e-Reader game released in 2002. The game is a port of the Nintendo Entertainment System video game Urban Champion and was part of the second batch of classic NES ports for the e-Reader. The player could play the game by scanning five cards, each one with two barcodes excluding the fifth one, which only had one. When the game was first released, it cost a suggested retail price of $4.99, though as the e-Reader lost momentum the price dropped in many stores.

Reception

IGN reviewed the game shortly after its release [1]. Craig Harris, the writer, was unimpressed with the game and finished his review by saying "It's a nice idea, but it's not surprising that the game wasn't a huge hit.", referring to the lackluster sales of the original NES title. He gave the game a 5.0 out of 10.
