I wasn't even aware this was a thing back then and I played and owned most of the GBA games. It wasn't until I had consistent internet and a working computer around 2007 when I saw that pokemon worlds was even a thing let alone worlds for YGO. I sometimes wonder how much bigger things like this would have been if info on these tournaments was more widely available at the time.
Bro, I cannot begin to tell you how enamored I am with this video. Sadly, a lot of archival stuff of Yugioh's competitive early history is lost behind old forums and JP posts. Chads like you putting it into videos like these make me week. Keep up the awesome work man.
If there was going ever going to be a video on this topic, I'm glad you made it. I've watched your videos especially on Championship 2006. Your channel is one of the hidden gems that still exists on this platform.
As always, excellent content Busta! :D Had no idea there was a fork of Trials to Glory for tournament use! Learning something new everyday with your docu-series.
It's interesting to watch this, i was aware of esports yugioh back in the ds days cause a lot of the ghosts based on real duelists had real meta decks (and a few hacked 5 card deck exodia ones). Was a fun time that master duel doesn't really capture
Hey I love to see the part 2 of this series the ds games are my favorite and yes I have the gba games but I don't have every yugioh gba games as I do with the ds except for ds world championship 2009
Great video! I always loved all GBA Yugioh games, good to know there was actual tournaments around them. A bit off topic, but i wanted to ask just in case, would you have by any chance the Instruction Manual of Duel Academy? I tried to search a Digitied version of it or a PDF but i had no luck finding one.
Hello there I just finished your video on romhacking and was wondering how hard would it be to romhack speed duela into yugioh ultimate masters (minus the ability cards if it’s to complex to add them)
I know the guy who got second place losing to Francois Ferry in 2003. You said a user called "yu-gi-oh shadow kingdom" uploaded video from the GBA competition. I can't find it, could you direct me to it? I wanna see my buddy getting wrecked. And if you have any questions I can forward them along.
and no of the games is yet in nintendo onlien service saddly. t would be so cool if they put them on nintendo online and u can play them online against other players
Hey scrubdude, I was imagining doing a challenge run in either 7 trials to glory or UM2006 where you can only use cards that you get from passwords (either slowly replacing your starter deck or adding to the card pool including your starter deck). Any good ideas jump to mind what you would prioritize or should I just look up whatever meta deck I can make in the game and use that
Are you able to ROM Hack WTC 2004? It was my childhood game but it's so limited in it's options with the CPU's mostly using the same(banned and strong) cards
Just wanna say I knew Pere personally. He was a tryhard in the good sense of the word and usually won most locals, and will often go to the YGO major events every year with some others.
I did! I still have it too. During World's I brought my own cable because I was worried that they wouldn't have one with the Game Boy Micro connector, and it turned out that that was 100% the case.
I know that the whole point of the World Championship games is to be used at the official tournaments, but did they ever played any of the Tag Force games? Is because the tag system of the PSP games is not as popular?
Limited edition Firewing Pegasus? Now that's a prize worth dedicating countless hours into a GBA card game simulator!

Excelent video man, i didn't know the GBA games were so competitive.
I love this channel so much
Quote and agree.

Hearing eternal duelist soul music always brings back fond memories. This is really awesome I wish I knew about it back then.
Good video.
Here's an algorithm pleasing comment
I just found your channel like two days ago and I already binged all your videos 😂, hope you keep it up! Your content is great!
As always, excellent content Busta! :D Had no idea there was a fork of Trials to Glory for tournament use! Learning something new everyday with your docu-series.
Wow interesting video didn't really know the gba games held such events back in the day
Very interesting, subbed. Can't believe someone named their kid Pat Dicks
great video - looking forward to the next gen
I cannot wait for the DS version of this video!!!!!!
Incredible research and content as usual sir. And go France ! Always a delight to hear your french pronunciation ;)
I want to dig up about that François Ferry guy
Amazing video! Really enjoyed it :)
Cant wait for Part 2 good sir. Im late asf but ay, I brought the Link Cables!
So nostalgic. I would love to relive those years.
Mmmmmmm! Great way to start the morning! Thanks for the video!!!
🙏
Cannot imagine how long the research for this lasted. Also, Im playing Duel links right now!
Imagine making it all the way to worlds and the only thing people remember about your deck is a mystic tomato set one pass. 💀

Having to go through a quiz as part of an event just seems horrid, can't imagine not being to play in an event because you didn't top a quiz.
incredible video, thanks so much for doing that research!
Hey I love to see the part 2 of this series the ds games are my favorite and yes I have the gba games but I don't have every yugioh gba games as I do with the ds except for ds world championship 2009
Japan also had events for the Game Boy Duel Monsters games, like there was a big tournament before the OCG even existed.
Loved the video
Hey scrub. Good video and i can see you're hard at work already.
The comment section on your alt channels
Alt channel should be checked tho*

9:08 SNAKE!
I had heard about these existing but no info!
Amazing video!

Having to reset because of glitches in a competitive environment sounds so infuriating.
Another Scrub Basta banger
and no of the games is yet in nintendo onlien service saddly.
t would be so cool if they put them on nintendo online and u can play them online against other players

Hey, have you ever thought of modifying WCT2004? That game could use some improvements.
I was considering buying the 2006 champion game. that's just such a golden era. what DS game is good?
I admittedly haven't played all of them but WCT 2011 Over the Nexus is pretty goated
WC2008 is the last one before Synchros were introduced and changed the game forever.
"esport"
"Yugioh master duel"
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...
Yeah no. Not happening.
REJECT MASTER DUEL, RETURN TO GBA MONKE
Yo Scrubby, where the Discord Server at? I need my daily cleaning 🪥
I'm waiting to really spam it out there but here is my super secret discord rn discord.gg/gGCcRCGy
Banger video
17:15 guy at the bottom right do be looking like weevil ngl
please cover the NDS tournaments
I love how that Chris guy travels across the world just to get ass handed to him by Kenji and his 30 dollar haircut and anime villain deck
Venus was a glitch I think you can't do that without Shine balls.
Thanks for keeping the fire alive, my man! If it was not for this video I'll never have learned about these tournaments and how they were made.
Excellent video, incredibly sad you dont have more subs, your channel is fantastic
Are you able to ROM Hack WTC 2004? It was my childhood game but it's so limited in it's options with the CPU's mostly using the same(banned and strong) cards
Amazing video, thank you for covering this era! These some of many fav ygo games.
Just wanna say I knew Pere personally. He was a tryhard in the good sense of the word and usually won most locals, and will often go to the YGO major events every year with some others.
I really don't like master duel. Praying that legacy of the duelist part 3 comes soon
basta can you do a playthought for yu-gi-oh ultimate master
Is there any rom hack for gba duel academy?
17:08 Looks like Brandon Qualified while playing on a gameboy micro, the mad lad.
I did! I still have it too. During World's I brought my own cable because I was worried that they wouldn't have one with the Game Boy Micro connector, and it turned out that that was 100% the case.
Cant believe my boy won thanks to a glitch.
I'm also pretty sure they tried to ban any glitched card effects on the tournament banlist but didn't know about Venus LMAO
Scrub you are legit my fave channels on here! Love the content! Thanks so much for all this effort :)
Gba era of yugioh is my favorite and this video was very informative
I hope some people start playing it online
But were those events separate from official tournaments with actual cards?
I know that the whole point of the World Championship games is to be used at the official tournaments, but did they ever played any of the Tag Force games?
Is because the tag system of the PSP games is not as popular?
afaik tag forces games have no wifi duel, so no multiplayer. its basically a single player games
Great video
hey ty
