      Honestly the video games were the best way to play yugioh for a bit. You didn't have to ask your parents for 50 bucks for a piece of cardboard to help build a deck, you had a time capsule of what the game was at this point of time, later you could play against other players deck online. Really the cardboard was the bonus.

    Back in the early 2000s, a mom came into our local card shop to buy her very young son his first "booster box." She noticed one that was significantly cheaper than the rest, so she purchased it for him and they left excitedly. Moments later, the mom came back inside feeling furious that every single pack had identical cards in it.
    She purchased a "box" of the Movie Exclusive pack. The poor kid was heartbroken. He ended up being okay in the long run - we're still in touch - but what a rough early outing into the game.

Paying per duel when you get a prize at the end (lose or win) isn't that weird.. unless you've never set foot at a local. The only thing missing was a casual duel that didnt cost nothing but won you nothing, yes.
      Also they indeed did change it with 5D. And guess what? That made the game 10 time worse and more P2W than ever before.

      Yeah, the way Magic did their 30th packs would be if like Konami had done that Platinum Blue-Eyes and charged like $100,000 for a chance to get it or one of the other main character/antagonist cards.
      $1,000 for the one card is still kinda ridiculous but at least there was a reason for it to be so expensive, wasn't treated as the player facing anniversary celebration, and wasn't random.
      If Wizards had just made these boxes either $100 or guaranteed you the entire set for $250 in a DUDE-like manner I would bet they would have never seen these complaints.
      It's still frankly ridiculous for fake cards with nothing special about them like being made of an expensive metal but that would be far more within most people's price range for what it is.
      Of course the right thing to do really would have been to just reprint those cards normally and stop pandering to the scalper market which people who just want to play the game don't care about, but we're talking about a company who thought that was a good idea to ever do to begin with. Common sense has clearly not ever been a thing they have or desired to have (if they did it certainly wouldn't have taken 30 years to obtain it).

Yes, this is real, this is something UDE did. It was one of the points in the game where fan fears of it dying off were actually understandable and well-grounded. To this day, I have to wonder if those counterfeit cards are worth anything, monetarily, due to their part in making (and nearly ending) Yugioh history.
    Then again, Konami DID have weird-ass GX reprints shipped in with figures of their corresponding monsters, that - despite no one actually giving two shits of a Giant Rat's ass about - became so ludicrously hard to find, and thus expensive, that before someone found a binder full of them in their basement 15+ years later, ONE SET OF SAID CARDS WERE CONSIDERED A MYTH IN THEIR EXISTENCE!

    Despite looking somewhat dated now, the original Legendary Decks were probably one of the most important ever product releases in the history TCG Yugioh.

Getting a box with all the OG stuff + 2 extra decks for only $20 was absolutely insane value for any casual collector, and I remember there was an article somewhere that showed that on a massive wholesale website the Legendary decks were in the top 10 best sellers of the year for all collectibles.

    Because I liked the games, and in playground Yugioh days kids weren't going to their LGSes for tournaments, and buying singles was also pretty rare, I think I was the only person to have one of the kids I played, and it single handedly turned my otherwise dogshit decks into halfway decent.

    Whats even funnier about the videogame thing is that Tag Force 6 and later Tag Force Special are both fantastic, seriously there's well done english translations (in fact TFS got a re-done translation because the first one was vulgar and memeified by one guy) And the games are fully playable on an emulator or hacked PSP. TFS goes up to like, The New Challengers iirc.

      The hell you mean the Japanese release was a 2/10? It has like 40 playable story modes. That alone bumps the rating up a huge amount. The English release got 12 story modes, and they “compensated” us by adding art sleeves and game mats, as if that makes it okay.
      Game is awesome btw. I still play it because I can make a full alien deck on it without having to unlock any cards. It’s rad.
      And you know you can edit the anime story decks, right? Each character has a trunk of cards each with their own unique card pool. Did you just not bother making the decks better?

    As someone who also buys OCG cards, not getting a rare doesn't feel awful at all.
    The odds are still the same per box, essentially, there's just a bunch of extra packs that don't have a rare in the box.
    You might think "Why would I want more packs of random commons?" but ironically you actually get less bulk taking up space since the packs have less cards in them to begin with.
    Of course then you might think "But I paid the same for less cards?!"
    And maybe you did. But at least what you got actually goes through quality control processes unlike seemingly everything over here at this point.
    And the same thing actually does apply to speed duel. Their cards are much higher quality.

Also, Duelist of the Roses is the only Yugioh video game with a password system to get cards that doesn't use the codes printed on the cards. To make matters worse, the Magnet Warriors weren't even in the game! You couldn't even use the promo cards you just got in the game you got them from!

  • @Brawler_1337
    @Brawler_1337 6 місяців тому

    Imma throw my hat into the ring with Legendary Collection 4: Joey’s World. This set was a stinker, and Konami knew it. All the iconic foils that they could print to represent Joey or Mai were either banned DM staples, cards that had already been reprinted into the dirt, or unplayable garbage. The best reprints were Gold Sarc at common and Harpie’s Pet Dragon, which had shot up thanks to Harpie Channeler because it only had two prior printings-a game promo and a secret rare in Retro Pack 2. The only new card worth a damn was Harpie Dancer, which was only ever used in degenerate FTKs and Blaze Fenix bullshit. Every other card was absolute dog water, including the promos, one of which you couldn’t even play.
    Konami knew this set was bad, but they had to sell it anyway. So what did they do? They imported Sixth Sense from the OCG and made it legal at one copy. They printed it at common to short print it. This card had a very negative impact on the September 2013 format because it disproportionately benefitted the best deck of the time, Dragon Rulers. At the same time, it ruined the otherwise skillful Dragon Ruler mirror because sometimes one player would get to draw five or six cards and the other wouldn’t. It was sacky bullshit, and everyone knew that Konami was just going to ban it the second they didn’t have to push Joey’s World, which is exactly what happened. It was one of the most blatantly money-grubbing moves I had ever seen Konami do, and it did a lot to push me away from the game.
    Also, that comment about the Metalmorph cards being in normal sets was just wrong. Both Zoa and Metalzoa were promos in The Falsebound Kingdom, and Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon and Metalmorph were promos for Forbidden Memories. The only Metalmorph related card that was a regular release was Red-Eyes itself. The rest of them were video game promos.
