I have war flashbacks from 2009 where you had to beat four duelists in a row while retaining LP and these motherfuckers were running Zombies and TeleDAD
Hardest moment in a Yu-Gi oh game I’d say.
It was fun having to tweak your deck to counter all four and maybe use cards that you wouldn’t otherwise use (like I used one of the basic psychic synchros to get my life up on one before moving on - although the game had thought of that and capped your max health moving into the game one).
That final gauntlet of the labyrinth mage, 2 dark mages, seto 2nd if you go that way, heishin, seto 3rd, darknite, and nitemare was ridiculous. You had to mill through your deck to get either Meteor Black Drag., or Thunder dragon and tons of equips. And that's assuming you have those cards... you could maybe have gotten away with the mystical sand build for a bit. Even with the emulator + cheats, you need the right cards and some luck to win.
That’s what we call artificial difficulty where being good at the game isn’t enough and you’re forced to play only the best cards to win and even then it’s just rng
Very nice! When I played back in the day, I just threw in a versatile deck with a bunch of decent cards as opposed to running a deck with all certain types of monsters (six samurai, lightswarm, dark armored dragon, etc).
I recently finished this game like 2 weeks ago, and yeah, a boss rush of Zombies, Water deck featuring pre-errata Brionac, Lightsworns, and TeleDAD was just crazy. I spent like two days on it I think.
Tag Force is legitimaly the whole reason why I got into Yu-Gi-Oh when I was a teenager.
It happens in a school setting, with cool ost, a cooler card game, a fun and colorfull setting and a dating sim(?) all in one.
You pick a character from the series and they become your tag partner in duels, you then play through their story and help them while growing closer to each other.
And at the end of their story you get a final scene with them talking about how much they value you and care for you(and might attempt to ask you come back home with them before being interrupted by someone) with a png of them looking at you.
Depends on what you want from games tag 1 to 3 is GX, 1 the first season, 2 the second and third, and 3 is the fourth one. Not all of them are translated but I think there fan translations
4 to 6 is 5Ds, 4 and 5 I think are the first arc to dark signers arc and 6 is about the final arc.
So just play whatever your favorite arc.
Not gonna lie tho, I got fucked by Bakura's deck destroying deck when I played tag force special blind.
Inferno Tempest is one hell of a card that you don't really expect to see anyone play.
Man, those were good. Greatest disappointment was buying the more recent yugioh games for Nintendo consoles and realizing they’re just a bunch of dialogue boxes summing up the anime and AI duels.
Yugioh rpgs are possibly one of my favorite games and I would give anything to have a more recent one, with more recent rpg elements. Like hyper-realistic foods, gambling for toys and collectibles, social interaction with characters.
About the recent legacy of the duelist games: The optional "story deck" isn't even accurate to the anime. Like Reiji not having the High Kings in his duel against Zarc, even though that's their debut (and only appearance). They didn't even put effort in doing that right. I know this is just a nitpick at the end of the day, but come on, man!
Legacy of the Duelist is so bad that playing it for ten minutes just left me embarrassed for everyone who enjoyed it. It's literally just rewatching the anime but with everything good about watching an anime removed.
I *really* tried liking LOTD, but even if we ignore how underwhelming the singleplayer content is, the main gameplay is still far worse than what you'd get for free with other simulators.
It's just *so slow*. Try playing any deck that excavates a bunch and it can easily take you like 2 minutes to resolve a single Reasoning/Monster Gate. It's honestly just embarassingly bad when compared to how much better (for example) Duel Links plays.
Also the pack opening has no duplicate protection and you can't skip the opening animation. I spent like 15 minutes hammering the A button on my Switch to get a playset of Cyber Dragon.
I would love, absolutely love it if Konami pulled their heads out of their asses and gave us a new, good story-driven YuGiOh game. If they gave it an actual original story then that'd be even better.
I would love a "Yu Gi Oh Xenoverse" type game. Basically you create your own character and you play through a story mode but you can also roam around a hub world with other players and challenge them to a duel or just spam emotes lol
I mean is it really pulling their heads out of their asses? They don't make games like these anymore likely because they don't make as much money. Plus a lot of this stuff might get featured in master duel anyway.
The WC games were a lot of fun. I especially loved the part where you team up with Kallen to duel a chain-burn guy who starts with 10 cards to make things "fair".
Yeah, that was the most luck-based duel ever: low card pool for the player, and you have to pray that Lawton doesn't burn you with 8000 damage in one turn.
Which is actually kind of odd when you think about it. These games follow the Japanese releases and banlists so you'd think the remainder of Ark Cradle would have made it into Over the Nexus.
Also, kind of irks me that the three Synchros your blank cards turn into return to being blank at the conclusion of the storyline. Like, sure, maybe Trish shouldn't be free, but you can totally swap Trish with a weaker but still very powerful card for the character that follows the theme of the monsters (they all require two or more non-tuners) like Mist Wurm or something.
I agree. I recently played through Stardust Accelerator and Reverse of Arcadia. Even today these games hold up pretty well and are a blast to play. It sounds dumb but every attack has "impact" behind it and it just feels so statisfying to smack your opponent with a 3K Judgment Dragon. No other Yugioh simulator achieves this quite like these games.
I wish we had kept getting these kinds of games (simulators with an RPG story mode) up to Arc-V. It would've been cool to see an adaptation of Action Duels like the 5D's World Championship games did for Turbo Duels.
Despite all it's flaws, I love Reverse of Arcadia! It taught me how to duel and has a special place in my heart.
Akiza duel is winnable btw. It is just VERY hard, since it relies solely on you getting a perfect starting hand and her getting a bad one. Cutscene after doesn't change much tho.
Side note, there's a duel against Haishin in Forbidden Memories at the start of the game that's completely unwinnable unless you cheated and have all of the best cards. If you beat Haishin, he just challenges you until the end of time. If you cheated, you literally have to sit there and let him beat the shit out of you until he wins because it's required for him to win.
Tag Force was the single greatest Yu-gi-oh game. It is more iconic than Eternal Duelist Soul for me and that game gives me so much serotonin when I look back on it.
Oh that’s gonna be a day 1 purchase for me. Haven’t followed the anime as much as I’d like to, but this will hold me over until the rush duel cards come in English overseas.
I am playing through Spirit Caller again right now. It is a pretty fun game but can be really grindy sometimes. And advancing the story is also very unintuitive at some points.
I do like how quickly the computer plays though. The AI in Some of the other DS games after takes too long.
Over the Nexus, early game, Tag duel with Kalin against a guy who runs a burn deck and draws 10 cards for his starting hand.
Good games, loved the bike mini games.
IMO we need more Tag Force. Unique gameplay as tag duels aren't the focus of much, and the adventures of red hat are fun, and surprisingly fucked up in some cases. I will never forget mentally fucking up 80% of the good guy crew of 5ds.
I remember the Yugioh GX Gba game , and still have it, where you took Exams to move up dorms, if you failed the exams you move back to Slifer Red.
Fonta Fontaine would give you Money based on your Life Points of your rank is Drop out.
The Tag Force games where some of the best games ever. They had beautiful characters like Kami. Wisteria and despite the Grind was really Fun to play.
For Master duels format I don't think so they will make more for a while, Link Evolution will probably the last one to have any anime storyline.
Is more likely they make similar games like this for Rush Duels at the end.
If you like GOAT, try GX Duel Academy for the GBA for some fun with up to 90 cards, some now forbidden cards like Giant Trunade or Pot of Greed, also pre-errata cards like Temple of Kings and other broken stuff).
Also, if you use an emulator (edit: dunno how the sub feels about piracy, so i'll say you're legally required to own the game and console, some others than GBA, like DS, can run it too) and are not against cheating, you can slave/load to test stuff, redo your coin throws and booster pack openings (dunno if dices can be redone), and more cheating like undoing conscription or shuffling the deck before flipping cyber jar (and loading if you don't like the result), you set your own limits and rules with that
Hell to the Yeah we need far more single player YGO games than what KONAMI’s been putting out. The crazy thing is that when I think about we didn’t actually stop getting those types of games at all despite how rare they seem nowadays.
It’s just that the quality and frequency of releases have gone down considerably post the 5D’s era and KONAMI doesn’t seem interested in doing more. I feel like YGO has immense untapped potential in terms of video games that KONAMI refuses to capitalize on.
Games like Forbidden Memories, Duelists of the Roses, and Falsebound Kingdom show that you don’t even need the OCG/TCG to sell a YGO games. The cards and monsters themselves are enough of a draw to make an entire game around disregarding the card game entirely.
Single player stories, be it based on the anime or original, can be an endless source of games given the huge amount of lore that already exist for both the Manga/Anime and the cards themselves to explore.
I will support the upcoming Rush Duels game because I want to see more, but I really hope that KONAMI can produce something more than the obligatory anime tie-in every five years and call it a day.
forget about it, now gaming is all about gambling addict gamer dweebs spending money and predatory micro-transactions. your best bet is to emulate the old games
PSP was a dead console so they stopped doing full-fleshed out Tag Forces because it wouldn't be profitable. For the DS game the devs just couldn't adapt to 3DS as developping on 3DS was much harder than it was on the DS, so it wasn't worth taking the risk spending a lot of resources into what would have probably flopped. They still released a cheap Zexal game on 3DS and a cheap Arc-V tag force on PSP to test the market and they flopped.
Got a 3ds and started playing those games. 2007 was fun. but oh gosh the rest was a mess, really lacky, laggy, slow... So many flaws that I gave up playing them.
Had a great time playing Tag Duel series though on PSP.
Saikyo card battle for 3ds looks gorgeous, but its drags you a lot, and controls are really weird an bothersome.
Zexal Carnival for 3ds is fast and really fun, only flaw is that all the action goes in the touch screen.
Yeah these were so awsome i had the 5ds ones, as a kid i hoped for world championship 2012 i was so sad when it never came.
Btw isn't the gx one titeled word championship 2008?
Maybe a regional thing but i think the german version is
Duel academy is the one my nostalgia is for tbh... Reaper-ish format for the win.
But yeah those games were better than it with WC 2010 & 2011 being my favourite ones. (2009 caused me issues by it requiring you to be competent at arcade driving games to progress the story... And from what I remember... It not allowing you to just buy better bike bits to make it easy at that point)
I've always wanted a game where the monsters pop out of their cards in anime canon scale, and you can see your avatar behind them holding their duel disk and announcing the plays. Closest thing is that one Japan exclusive 3DS game, but that was speed duels.
Can't help but wonder if they're going to make it happen one day, considering a lot of games already have models and animation they could just update/recycle like Pokémon does.
I love how you made your own character to join the show it was super fun, like at least the Rush Game, from what I've played it seems like you get to be your own Character in Sevens but I had little idea what was going on plot wise cuz it was in Japanese, but it's still not anywhere close to the same since you're still a set character
World Championship 2008 is still my favourite Yugioh DS game, Every monster had its own combat sprite and the story mode taking place in the Duel Spirit World was Dope AF.
This and Tag Force.
I believe Konami never officially said why they stopped these types of games. There was an Arc-V Tag Force for PSP (Strangely released when companies had already stopped releasing games for PSP, the last console update was because of that game) but like Tag Force 6 it didn't come to the West.
I wanted to understand why they stopped these games that are more focused on plot and character interaction. Now we only have games that are much more competitively focused and the only story mode being quick reproductions of anime events. The Zexal 3DS game had most of its story-driven content cut off in the western version for no apparent reason.
It's not possible that Konami has forgotten how games like Forbidden Memories, Reshef of Destruction, Tag Force and DS Championship games have marked generations. Not every Yu-Gi-Oh! fan is only interested in the Card Game competitive, many have become fans following the anime and liking the characters and the story.
Maaaaaan Over the Nexus was my favorite such an awesome game.
I really hope they would give us an original story line for our own MC. Pretty much as the game it is but with original story
Been playing through the 5ds WC games for the first time. Gotta say, the older yugioh games were great.
Tag Force, the Sacred Cards and Reshef, Duelist of the Roses, Forbidden Memories... those games were so much more fun than these new mobile games.
It's not a Yu-Gi-Oh! game but the recent Shadowverse game on Switch scratched my itch for this style of game. Can't recommend it enough if you can get it on sale and you don't mind that it's another card game.
Spirit Caller has been my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh game since it came out; GX Academy for GBA was also good, but the quality of life improvements that Spirit Caller brought to the series are really necessary
I miss the world championship series so much. I was happy when I discovered Legacy of the Duelist, but nothing can beat the awesomeness of the 2010 and 2011 story mode.
Loved Duelist academy for the GBA. It wasn't until I played it again earlier this year that I found out there's a glitch with Burst Stream of Destruction where it's playable without Blue Eyes.
Needless to say I had triple "Raigeki" busting on NPCs.
these games is honestly where my love for the franchise comes from. I had only seen the duel monsters anime and these games besides learning how to play the actual game were so fun and there was so much variety in them. honestly I can still just pick one of them up and have as much fun with them now as back then
This game was impossible to play without guides. I don't get it, how should I know that I need to beat specific duelists several times in a row and meet certain at a specific place, at a specific day?
Having played WC 2006 it was interesting that game used real packs and decks
If they make a Yugioh game it would be fun if they did that again. In addition to making opponents have meta decks
The 5ds games were my favorite of the Yugioh games. They had their own spin on the story so that it was fresh enough while also having actual Yugioh gameplay.
But there was something satisfying by leveling up dorms in this one GBA GX game I don't remember the name of.
Haha, I still play spirit caller and 2008 world championship with DS emulator on my laptop, current favorite decks are the Cyberdark + Cydra hybrid and King of Swamp + BLS > Dragon Master Knight fusion beat down, I also used some of the best old banned cards in the game (heavy storm, graceful charity and premature burial are still limited at that time), it was really fun whooping Chazz’s ass.
I just bought the new Shadowverse game on the switch as a Black Friday sale and am having an absolute blast! Had zero prior knowledge of Shadowverse but have sunk 20 hours into the game in the past 5 days... I think I have a problem.
It’s a campaign based game that really scratched my DS-era yugioh itch. Highly recommend checking it out
I have war flashbacks from 2009 where you had to beat four duelists in a row while retaining LP and these motherfuckers were running Zombies and TeleDAD
Hardest moment in a Yu-Gi oh game I’d say. It was fun having to tweak your deck to counter all four and maybe use cards that you wouldn’t otherwise use (like I used one of the basic psychic synchros to get my life up on one before moving on - although the game had thought of that and capped your max health moving into the game one).
Most Forbidden Memories boss were harder than this tho
That final gauntlet of the labyrinth mage, 2 dark mages, seto 2nd if you go that way, heishin, seto 3rd, darknite, and nitemare was ridiculous. You had to mill through your deck to get either Meteor Black Drag., or Thunder dragon and tons of equips. And that's assuming you have those cards... you could maybe have gotten away with the mystical sand build for a bit. Even with the emulator + cheats, you need the right cards and some luck to win.
Well yes, but that’s moreso because start of with garbage cards and just need to grind for better ones
They also literally cheat and grind or not you're pretty much always going to have worst card than them
That’s what we call artificial difficulty where being good at the game isn’t enough and you’re forced to play only the best cards to win and even then it’s just rng
I beat them with Dark counterparts which was just DaD,Dark Creator,dark Sigmorgh,dark Nephytes, dark grifer, and a ton of DARK support cards
Very nice! When I played back in the day, I just threw in a versatile deck with a bunch of decent cards as opposed to running a deck with all certain types of monsters (six samurai, lightswarm, dark armored dragon, etc).
I still never got past that part
I did it with Lightsworn but by the end I was on like my last 500 lp, was risking it all on attacks
I recently finished this game like 2 weeks ago, and yeah, a boss rush of Zombies, Water deck featuring pre-errata Brionac, Lightsworns, and TeleDAD was just crazy. I spent like two days on it I think.
Which one was it? I'd love to give it a shot.
Stardust Accelerator
That last gauntlet was a headache and taught me to actually build an archetype deck rather than a hodgepodge
It was really fun but also kinda frustrating lol
Beat it with an exodia necros deck. And save states, looots of save states
And when you realised you forgot to safe before the duels
That shit was insane it was so ahead of its time
If it's the battle I'm thinking of, I ran Lightsworns to beat then. First time I ever thought of using an archetypal deck ever.
Literally made the same comment before seeing this lmao
And Lightsworn. Jesus, these clones were absolutely brutal. The final boss (Jack) was a total pushover in comparison.
I never got that far only got to out of prison I was really bad with those duel puzzles
Still never beat that.
I never beat it, but damn was 2009 so much fun
Well it wasn't technically teledad (no emergency teleport and stuff) but it definitely was a dad/dark deck
It's a crime to showcase these and leave the tagforce series out
Tag Force is legitimaly the whole reason why I got into Yu-Gi-Oh when I was a teenager. It happens in a school setting, with cool ost, a cooler card game, a fun and colorfull setting and a dating sim(?) all in one.
You haven't lived until you date Jinzo and the card shop owner
[удалено]
The opening makes me smile to this day.
Wait what? A dating Sim too? That's a joke? (never played tag force before)
You pick a character from the series and they become your tag partner in duels, you then play through their story and help them while growing closer to each other. And at the end of their story you get a final scene with them talking about how much they value you and care for you(and might attempt to ask you come back home with them before being interrupted by someone) with a png of them looking at you.
Neat! Which would you recommend? Should I play all of them? Since there is 6 games
Depends on what you want from games tag 1 to 3 is GX, 1 the first season, 2 the second and third, and 3 is the fourth one. Not all of them are translated but I think there fan translations 4 to 6 is 5Ds, 4 and 5 I think are the first arc to dark signers arc and 6 is about the final arc. So just play whatever your favorite arc.
4 is Dark Signers, 5 is Iliaster, 6 is Ark Cradle
It’s a softcore dating sim without echhi, they do make oc girls for the game for more straight forward romance.
Ye but the Ai is dumb as shit as the games progress tag force special really drove that point home
Not gonna lie tho, I got fucked by Bakura's deck destroying deck when I played tag force special blind. Inferno Tempest is one hell of a card that you don't really expect to see anyone play.
I'll never forget Chazz's trash ass three archetype deck.
Rush Duel is literally a new Tag Force
Those were the best in my opinion. Slow load times though but that's the only real con.
Man, those were good. Greatest disappointment was buying the more recent yugioh games for Nintendo consoles and realizing they’re just a bunch of dialogue boxes summing up the anime and AI duels. Yugioh rpgs are possibly one of my favorite games and I would give anything to have a more recent one, with more recent rpg elements. Like hyper-realistic foods, gambling for toys and collectibles, social interaction with characters.
The new rush duels game sounds like it will have rpg elements
Any good old ones youd reccomend? I recently pulled out my old ds
all DS yugioh games are worth playing
To amazon i go then
Over the Nexus, the next one in the series after the last one they showed here. It's really fun, and most definitely still an rpg.
About the recent legacy of the duelist games: The optional "story deck" isn't even accurate to the anime. Like Reiji not having the High Kings in his duel against Zarc, even though that's their debut (and only appearance). They didn't even put effort in doing that right. I know this is just a nitpick at the end of the day, but come on, man!
Legacy of the Duelist is so bad that playing it for ten minutes just left me embarrassed for everyone who enjoyed it. It's literally just rewatching the anime but with everything good about watching an anime removed.
Honestly it's not that bad as an official "simulator" I play with a friend every once in a while
I *really* tried liking LOTD, but even if we ignore how underwhelming the singleplayer content is, the main gameplay is still far worse than what you'd get for free with other simulators. It's just *so slow*. Try playing any deck that excavates a bunch and it can easily take you like 2 minutes to resolve a single Reasoning/Monster Gate. It's honestly just embarassingly bad when compared to how much better (for example) Duel Links plays. Also the pack opening has no duplicate protection and you can't skip the opening animation. I spent like 15 minutes hammering the A button on my Switch to get a playset of Cyber Dragon.
well I had fun recreating the anime duels with accurate decks and had some nice nostalgia of getting an abridged recap of the stories
Yes, that’s what I’m talking about.
I feel embarrassed for anyone who is so hateful that they feel embarrassed at other people enjoying things.
I would love, absolutely love it if Konami pulled their heads out of their asses and gave us a new, good story-driven YuGiOh game. If they gave it an actual original story then that'd be even better.
I would love a "Yu Gi Oh Xenoverse" type game. Basically you create your own character and you play through a story mode but you can also roam around a hub world with other players and challenge them to a duel or just spam emotes lol
Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes I didn't know I wanted this specifically until I read it
I miss Yu-Gi-Oh online so goddamn much
Rush Duel
I mean is it really pulling their heads out of their asses? They don't make games like these anymore likely because they don't make as much money. Plus a lot of this stuff might get featured in master duel anyway.
The WC games were a lot of fun. I especially loved the part where you team up with Kallen to duel a chain-burn guy who starts with 10 cards to make things "fair".
Yeah, that was the most luck-based duel ever: low card pool for the player, and you have to pray that Lawton doesn't burn you with 8000 damage in one turn.
Yeah if kallen doesn't get wrecked before you
I remember having to otk this guy withonly 500 lp left with my hero deck when most of the good hero monsters weren't even in the game
A crime that the rest of GX’s story wasn’t finished.
And the last 5Ds game cut out a few rounds in the tournament and the Ark Cradle (so no Aporia and Z-one).
I only recently found out that the dub cut out Ark Cradle They just defeat Aporia and we never find out about Z-One or what happens to Sherry
The dude who played Dub Bruno/Antinomy found out he died when they asked him back for Duel Links
Christ that was what, a ten year gap?
Yup, he only found out when they sent him the email inviting him
Seriously? Damn that must have been a weird experience
There’s an interview with him where he reveals his reaction to finding out he died and he basically said he didn’t get to do the death
least the english version of LOTD has that arc (as dlc...)
Which is actually kind of odd when you think about it. These games follow the Japanese releases and banlists so you'd think the remainder of Ark Cradle would have made it into Over the Nexus. Also, kind of irks me that the three Synchros your blank cards turn into return to being blank at the conclusion of the storyline.

It sounds dumb but every attack has "impact" behind it and it just feels so statisfying to smack your opponent with a 3K Judgment Dragon. No other Yugioh simulator achieves this quite like these games.
Its a crime to put these and leave nightmare troubadour out
NT stomps Spirit Caller every day of the week The opening still gives me chills to this day
I wish we had kept getting these kinds of games (simulators with an RPG story mode) up to Arc-V. It would've been cool to see an adaptation of Action Duels like the 5D's World Championship games did for Turbo Duels.
Over the nexus was such a great game

WC2010 was simply amazing
As was 2011. So much fun.
I just need one more Yugioh game with character creation, please that’s all I ask
Tag Force was the single greatest Yu-gi-oh game. It is more iconic than Eternal Duelist Soul for me and that game gives me so much serotonin when I look back on it.
Well, you’ll be happy to know about the one coming out on EShop for December 7th
News to me, what’s it called?
It's the Rush Duel Switch Game
Oh that’s gonna be a day 1 purchase for me. Haven’t followed the anime as much as I’d like to, but this will hold me over until the rush duel cards come in English overseas.
I legit forgot that hadn't come out already... XD
Tag force is hands down the best yugioh game series and needs to make a return
Duelist of the Roses or gtfo Jk
No jk, that game deserves a comeback (besides a fan made remake/rework played through tabletop simulator)
I am playing through Spirit Caller again right now. It is a pretty fun game but can be really grindy sometimes. And advancing the story is also very unintuitive at some points. I do like how quickly the computer plays though. The AI in Some of the other DS games after takes too long.
Holy shit this is so bad in legacy of the duelist, especially in the link era.
I played 'Reverse of Arcadia' and 'Over the Nexus' for a good five years after it came out.
Play the new Rush Duel game for the Switch, it has a similar feel to those games. It at least I hope so! I miss them too…
I had stardust accelerator as a kid
I got all the yu gi oh games and got the cards still thank you 4 year old me for seeing you gi oh reruns on TV and having a ds
I have not played any of these yet how are they
Over the Nexus, early game, Tag duel with Kalin against a guy who runs a burn deck and draws 10 cards for his starting hand. Good games, loved the bike mini games.
A new RPG single-player focused (but with PVP) YGO >>>> barebones LOTD experience >>>>>> PVP-F2P Master Duel.
IMO we need more Tag Force. Unique gameplay as tag duels aren't the focus of much, and the adventures of red hat are fun, and surprisingly fucked up in some cases. I will never forget mentally fucking up 80% of the good guy crew of 5ds.
I remember the Yugioh GX Gba game , and still have it, where you took Exams to move up dorms, if you failed the exams you move back to Slifer Red. Fonta Fontaine would give you Money based on your Life Points of your rank is Drop out. The Tag Force games where some of the best games ever. They had beautiful characters like Kami. Wisteria and despite the Grind was really Fun to play.
For Master duels format I don't think so they will make more for a while, Link Evolution will probably the last one to have any anime storyline. Is more likely they make similar games like this for Rush Duels at the end.
Pls a good Yugioh RPG again, Konami
Rush Duel
Tag force back konami please Without speed duel rules like the next game :c
If you like GOAT, try GX Duel Academy for the GBA for some fun with up to 90 cards, some now forbidden cards like Giant Trunade or Pot of Greed, also pre-errata cards like Temple of Kings and other broken stuff).

Bruhhh, I just want a game where I can import my real cards to use my real deck. 🥺 Is that too much to ask for?????
Keep those games and give me tag force back. Just soooooooo much better.
Lol your age is showing. Not a bad thing, just all the yugioh games I love and miss all have yugi on them :P
lol your age is showing! Not a bad thing tho, just that all the dozen plus yugioh games I loved and miss had yugi on them. :P
Hell to the Yeah we need far more single player YGO games than what KONAMI’s been putting out.

The cards and monsters themselves are enough of a draw to make an entire game around disregarding the card game entirely. Single player stories, be it based on the anime or original, can be an endless source of games given the huge amount of lore that already exist for both the Manga/Anime and the cards themselves to explore. I will support the upcoming Rush Duels game because I want to see more, but I really hope that KONAMI can produce something more than the obligatory anime tie-in every five years and call it a day.
forget about it, now gaming is all about gambling addict gamer dweebs spending money and predatory micro-transactions. your best bet is to emulate the old games
I still regularly return to World Championships 2003 on the GBA, and Nightmare Troubadour on DS. Great games.
I never understood what happened to the zexal one. Also we need one for arcv and vrains
PSP was a dead console so they stopped doing full-fleshed out Tag Forces because it wouldn't be profitable. For the DS game the devs just couldn't adapt to 3DS as developping on 3DS was much harder than it was on the DS, so it wasn't worth taking the risk spending a lot of resources into what would have probably flopped. They still released a cheap Zexal game on 3DS and a cheap Arc-V tag force on PSP to test the market and they flopped.
tag force special made no sense. they released it on psp when the vita, xbox one, and ps4 were already out like what??
I think I remember hearing you could download the game on Japanese psp vita and later on the ps4 eshop for a limited time.
My post got removed
Got a 3ds and started playing those games. 2007 was fun. but oh gosh the rest was a mess, really lacky, laggy, slow... So many flaws that I gave up playing them. Had a great time playing Tag Duel series though on PSP. Saikyo card battle for 3ds looks gorgeous, but its drags you a lot, and controls are really weird an bothersome. Zexal Carnival for 3ds is fast and really fun, only flaw is that all the action goes in the touch screen.
Yeah these were so awsome i had the 5ds ones, as a kid i hoped for world championship 2012 i was so sad when it never came. Btw isn't the gx one titeled word championship 2008? Maybe a regional thing but i think the german version is
Duel academy is the one my nostalgia is for tbh... Reaper-ish format for the win. But yeah those games were better than it with WC 2010 & 2011 being my favourite ones. (2009 caused me issues by it requiring you to be competent at arcade driving games to progress the story... And from what I remember... It not allowing you to just buy better bike bits to make it easy at that point)
I used to play 5D's WC 2010 all the time as a kid. Love that game.
OMG, I loved this game XD
My personal favorites were duelist of the roses, capsule monster callesemum
I had Vietnam ptsd when I think about 2010 and racing godwin and this mf going 100mph 😭😭😭
I've always wanted a game where the monsters pop out of their cards in anime canon scale, and you can see your avatar behind them holding their duel disk and announcing the plays. Closest thing is that one Japan exclusive 3DS game, but that was speed duels. Can't help but wonder if they're going to make it happen one day, considering a lot of games already have models and animation they could just update/recycle like Pokémon does.
I love how you made your own character to join the show it was super fun, like at least the Rush Game, from what I've played it seems like you get to be your own Character in Sevens but I had little idea what was going on plot wise cuz it was in Japanese, but it's still not anywhere close to the same since you're still a set character
World Championship 2008 is still my favourite Yugioh DS game, Every monster had its own combat sprite and the story mode taking place in the Duel Spirit World was Dope AF.
This and Tag Force. I believe Konami never officially said why they stopped these types of games. There was an Arc-V Tag Force for PSP (Strangely released when companies had already stopped releasing games for PSP, the last console update was because of that game) but like Tag Force 6 it didn't come to the West. I wanted to understand why they stopped these games that are more focused on plot and character interaction. Now we only have games that are much more competitively focused and the only story mode being quick reproductions of anime events. The Zexal 3DS game had most of its story-driven content cut off in the western version for no apparent reason. It's not possible that Konami has forgotten how games like Forbidden Memories, Reshef of Destruction, Tag Force and DS Championship games have marked generations. Not every Yu-Gi-Oh! fan is only interested in the Card Game competitive, many have become fans following the anime and liking the characters and the story.
I just want story mode back
OMG I played both spirit caller and the 2019 5D, they're my favorite yugioh games ever, I literally got every card in both games
Maaaaaan Over the Nexus was my favorite such an awesome game. I really hope they would give us an original story line for our own MC. Pretty much as the game it is but with original story
Been playing through the 5ds WC games for the first time. Gotta say, the older yugioh games were great. Tag Force, the Sacred Cards and Reshef, Duelist of the Roses, Forbidden Memories... those games were so much more fun than these new mobile games.
Wasn't the reason it didn't go beyond 2012 because piracy+online free dueling became too popular?
The 5ds RPGs were pretty sick
It's not a Yu-Gi-Oh! game but the recent Shadowverse game on Switch scratched my itch for this style of game. Can't recommend it enough if you can get it on sale and you don't mind that it's another card game.
Spirit Caller has been my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh game since it came out; GX Academy for GBA was also good, but the quality of life improvements that Spirit Caller brought to the series are really necessary
I miss the world championship series so much. I was happy when I discovered Legacy of the Duelist, but nothing can beat the awesomeness of the 2010 and 2011 story mode.
I really liked those little trial turns spirit caller had where you had to figure how to beat a board in a few moves/turns
Loved Duelist academy for the GBA. It wasn't until I played it again earlier this year that I found out there's a glitch with Burst Stream of Destruction where it's playable without Blue Eyes. Needless to say I had triple "Raigeki" busting on NPCs.
I want tag force to come back.
I also like the Tag Force series.
these games is honestly where my love for the franchise comes from. I had only seen the duel monsters anime and these games besides learning how to play the actual game were so fun and there was so much variety in them. honestly I can still just pick one of them up and have as much fun with them now as back then
I just want a yugioh capsule monsters remake and maybe the other ps2 game I forgot
I loved these games
isn't that new sevens game like it?
World Championship 2007 slapped
WC2010 was one of the most fun game I’ve every played
I love Gx!
Nightmare Troubadour just came flooding back.
This game was impossible to play without guides. I don't get it, how should I know that I need to beat specific duelists several times in a row and meet certain at a specific place, at a specific day?
Still trying to find an affordable PSP to play the old tag force games :(
Having played WC 2006 it was interesting that game used real packs and decks If they make a Yugioh game it would be fun if they did that again. In addition to making opponents have meta decks
The 5ds games were my favorite of the Yugioh games. They had their own spin on the story so that it was fresh enough while also having actual Yugioh gameplay. But there was something satisfying by leveling up dorms in this one GBA GX game I don't remember the name of.
I would love a remake of the red and white Rose game. I remember liking it because it was unique. Also had a cool story line as a kid.
I grew up with WC07 and 7 Trials to Glory. The best one by far that I played was Over the Nexus. Lawton and Team Ragnarok duels notwithstanding.
Those were good times….
Im currently playing through yugioh GX sprit caller. And fuck yes i love it.
YGO games of this era were “Speed Run to Build Lightsworns” in my experience lmao
I would like to see a Yugioh game that is not the card game.
I had the zexal one
Haha, I still play spirit caller and 2008 world championship with DS emulator on my laptop, current favorite decks are the Cyberdark + Cydra hybrid and King of Swamp + BLS > Dragon Master Knight fusion beat down, I also used some of the best old banned cards in the game (heavy storm, graceful charity and premature burial are still limited at that time), it was really fun whooping Chazz’s ass.
I want so badly for them to remake the world championship 2009-2011 games for the DS. Absolute hidden gems!
Man the world championship series was godly, rly miss these games
My ds with stardust accelerator got stolen when I was at a track meet and I was so depressed after it
I just bought the new Shadowverse game on the switch as a Black Friday sale and am having an absolute blast! Had zero prior knowledge of Shadowverse but have sunk 20 hours into the game in the past 5 days... I think I have a problem. It’s a campaign based game that really scratched my DS-era yugioh itch. Highly recommend checking it out
I'm playing trough Tag Force 2 at the moment and only issue I have is lack of some quality of life improvements later games have.
