I don't know about this game because it hasn't been released yet but all they other yu-gi games have been a smash hit. Weather it was Dark Duel Stories to Sacred Cards. So Konami dezerves sme credit. The GBA games has the rules pin pointed, so in a real duel you can pull the trick out of your hat. I woul'd advise anyone to pre-order this game. Lets see if Konami can come through again.

Now, this game seems to be the best GBA game out there so far, here is a list of features...The artificial intelligence will be greatly improved then previous games to add a better more realistic feeling that your opponent is worthy. Also there is going to be over 1,000 cards in the database and you now will have the ability to create three different dueling decks. Also the graphics have greatly improved from the previous games, also with all the original characters from the original Yu-Gi-Oh TV show!!!! So I think this is going to be a real interesting game to say the least!!! Well, that's all, see ya'll!!!

The Funnest game EVER Made!

This Game is the best GBA game ever made. Even though I've never played it, because it hasn't been released yet. I know it has to be the bestest! My best friend's dad works for Nintendo and he's played the game and says it's "uber" cool. So go out and buy it Today! Ahhh I mean when it's released.

One Small Step Yu-Gi-Oh.....

Review of Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2004
(New Persons' Guide Below Initial Review)

This Game will make Sacred Cards look like a bad joke! BUT if you enjoyed playing the god cards, well don't get your hopes up. This game will be ABSOLUTLY and TOTALY TRUE TO THE YU-GI-OH! GAME!!! I can't stress that enough. Also, since this game will resemble Yu-Gi-Oh! World Wide Edition and Eternal Duelist Soul, You'll have to eccept the "Step by Step" format, "Draw, Main, Attack, End Turn. Fortunatly, the Speed of transition between one phase to another is MUCH faster than Eternal Duelist Soul, for which for those of you who haven't played it yet ( or before) was painfully slow. It took a whole second to make any kind of action whatsoever. NOW World Wide Edition Improved the speed by a lot but still, At least in This game, you can toggle the speed >Yes!<

NOW FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE NEW TO THE YUGIOH GAME UNIVERSE (Below)

=========
The Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game has struck HUGE with people all over the U.S. Japan and even China. In Japan, The first Yu-Gi-Oh! Game Released was from the first Yu-Gi-Oh! Format, manga or Japanese Comic Books. The Trading card game was called
"Magic and Wizards" and thus, only occured in ONE Yu-Gi-Oh! Comic, "Cards with Teeth" When re-named "Duel Monsters" the Konami Company quickly adopted the title and released the first Yu-Gi-Oh Video Game (Game Boy) named Duel Monsters (1) and also 12 of the Prototype Trading Cards which were the first Yu-Gi-Oh! Cards EVER MADE. They were White Colored and Included "The Cyclops" (Hitotsu-me Giant) "Ryu Kishin" and others.
After the TITANIC release of DM1 The Konami corp. Decided to begin a TV Sires named "Gamble Master", an extremly low budget short Yu-Gi-Oh! film siries which included the manga (Comic) "Cards with teeth" After a few years (1996-98) The Company finally got the funding to create a Yu-Gi-Oh! Telivsion siries based on the card game. Thus, the Yu-Gi-Oh! you see today. America Adopted Yu-Gi-Oh! in Summer 2001. and saw instant succes. The Vidio game industry has also boomed. Since the first game, there has been 8 Duel Monsters Games in Japan, and if you want to know the first game in America? "Dark Duel Stories".....

.....wow. that took a while! Hope you found that helpfull

There will be a REAL (yes, REAL) "Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004" using this game. One world champion of the Trading Card Game...and one world champion of this video game (it uses the same turn based rules as the card game). So link up to your friends, start trading cards and building decks (up to 3).

Let me just say that I am as big a YuGiOh fan as there is. I play and collect the actual TCG and have all the GBA games. While I will say it is nice to have access to alot of the newer cards in this version, there is NO PASSWORD system. You have to rely on the computer to "give" cards randomly. I have maybe 20+ round played at this point and already have multiples of useless cards. That is not any fun if you can already play the game, and have played with a well built deck. To make it worse the game is painfully S L O W, with no way what so ever to speed it up. The only reason a single game would last 10 minutes is because the computer feels it neccessary to show every card played, for at least 5 seconds, before it proceeds (which may not seem like much but, it feels like an eternity when you got several moves in your head) and shows every phase very S L O W Y. If you take this game at face value, it's still fun because it's a new Yu Gi Oh and the 3 cards that come with it could actually be useful. Although the double of whammy of below elemetary pace and NO custom password system (which makes even less sense, because of 3 possible decks to build) kills what could of been without a doubt the best one yet. I was really disappointed.

...worthy opponents...all the cards !

Good News ! Your early opponents arenýt going to be the pushovers they were in Sacred Cards. Theyýre not at all afraid to set traps, summon level 5&up monsters, and hit you with Dark Hole and Raigeki. The Trusdale character in particular is going to try to stall your attacks with a blizzard of traps while he plays deck speed cards like Pot of Greed in an attempt to spring an Exodia on you. Tea Gardner, on the other hand, is out to maintain her Life Points. Once while playing her with one of the starting decks the game supplied me, she equipped one of my warriors with a Kisetai, had a Marie the Fallen One in the Graveyard, and an active Solemn Wishes in her Spell Card Zone. As a result, she was walking up her LP by over 1000 per turn. And she had a 2200 defender on the field so I couldnýt attack my way out of it. Just as I was thinking of waving the white flag (yes, you can surrender in this game) when Teaýs LP crossed the 20,000 mark, she brought a St. Joan to the field and equipped it with both Mage Power and United We Stand, bringing the ATK to 6900 (ouch !). So what-the-hey, I took my finger off the surrender button, sat back, and let St. Joan have her way with me.

Not to say that these computer opponents are infallible, though. They will often summon good defenders to the field in ATK position, where they can be picked off easily. And just when theyýve put you into a sweat by dropping a 2000+ onto the field that youýre going to have to rely on something from your deck to beat, sometimes the very next turn theyýll summon a low level 5 to replace it (something the Yugi from ýPower of Chaos ý Yugi the Destinyý for the PC would never do !)

One of the strong points of Sacred Cards was the environment. The music, the graphics, the sites around Battle City, and the storyline all added up to what was a charming little package. World Championship Tournament 2004 doesnýt stand out in that regard (but weýre ultimately here for good duels, right ?). The music is nothing but glorified elevator music and I think many of you will find it atrocious. The graphics are a little better, they sort of make you feel like youýve stepped in to Vegas to do some slots. I was dismayed to find that you can only see the backs of the cards that are in your hand and will have to toggle back and forth to identify them. But this is somewhat forgivable because they had to make everything smaller in their attempt to be as faithful as possible to the TCG and have all regions (field spell zone and so forth) of the field brought into view.

There are over 1100 different cards available in the game and you start out with just shy of 120. After each victory you get to unwrap a pack containing 5 cards and, yes, most of these will be doubles. For best results, try toggling to the left and right to unwrap packs with differently-styled paper on them. Sometimes you can receive 4 or 5 brand new cards this way.

Bottom line: While ýPower of Chaos ý Yugi the Destinyý remains the best dueling experience Iýve had yet (even though itýs hampered by the limited cards and opponents it has available), Iým confident that when Iýve earned the right to play the more advanced characters this new game has, that Iýll find World Championship Tournament 2004 to be a worthy and stimulating challenge.
