Levelling up a duel spirit will give you an extra copy of their card, which is why 3 is their max level for 3 total copies. This is especially important because the duel spirit cards can't be found in packs.
I have good memories of this game and did like the spirits mechanic. That said of the 3 starter spirits you could end up with Jerry Beans Man a decent 1750 atk monster, Adhesive Explosive an essentially inferior Blast Sphere that lacks the inflicting damage, but still destroys the opponent's monster so alright, but then we got Oscillo Hero #2 which just what a troll spirit to get as a starter, which seriously it's like they threw that in just because it has hero in the name with it having no redeeming factor to it compared to the other two.
This is a great way for my morning to start Zane! I've been playing Duel Links every day since Takahashi-sensei passed and these videos are outstanding retrospectives on the games. Really good to play on repeat while I work on script fellowship applications.
this one, the GX Playstation 2 one, & World Championship 2011 were some of my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh games :) it feels like they never really figured out balance though. cause most Yu-Gi-Oh games seem to want you to already be the top ranked tournament players when a lot of us just want to mess around with our favorite cards, archetypes, or anime character's decks.
Like a Phoenix, Mr. Silver rises back again. Since we are in the era when I stopped playing YGO (and it's videogames) for a while, this is new material for me. Looking foward to it.
This was always one of my favorites as a kid. I didn't get a PSP until around Tag Force 5, so I only had access to the DS-exclusive YGO games as a kid - needless to say, Konami knew Nintendo's install base demographics. Revisiting this one as a young adult was fun, but messing around in the post-game gets pretty boring when you can reliably OTK everyone with Shining Flare Wingman.
I love this series so much, I grew up with the YuGiOh 5ds World Championship games and it's so cool to hear about games I didn't play that have similar features!! I can't wait to see the next one!!!
Really loved this series of retrospectives. The recent announcement of the Early Days collection by Konami got me really nostalgic for older yugioh game content and I'm really hoping the amount of love they've been showing the older games, especially the Duel Monsters/Shin Duel Monsters line of games, means we could see similar off the wall type of YGO games once more in the future.
this is my favorite of the yugioh games. I have so much nostalgia but would have loved a slighlty extended card pool. I think it is just well done and fun.
I agree that the amount of Yugioh games during this era definitely canibalized the series sales in the long run. I have never heard of any of these games before.
Just got this game for the first time today, I had WC07 and nightmare troubadour back in the day so I’m excited to play through this, feels familiar and new at the same time so I’m enjoying it, clocked just under five hours playtime already 😂
Tag Force 2 is my favorite and it's opening hits hard as the best of the GX games. Also Tag Force 3 is just really odd for it never coming out in NA and for it having 5DS era cards/Tuners which was so baffling to see.
Looking Forward to the 5D’s Retrospective, and maybe one for the Zexal 3DS Game and the Arc V one that never got localized but has Fan Translation Roms
I would love a game with an OC where it’s like spirit caller but through all of the yugioh history Make it like a 200 hour plus game I’d play it for a decade to collect all the spirits in battle city alone
Can you do a video on how to connect it to GX spiritcaller to nightmare troubledour and if you have to actually beat the story mode to be able to send the god cards to that game and also can you send all 3 of them or no?
I love your videos and hope you do all of the games at least through 5ds. Reverse of Arcadia was my first yugioh game and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it
I just wanted to say that while I love your work, I would love it even more if you did a small segment on a game you missed from the Dual Monsters Era, Destiny Board Traveler. Please consider it!
@@powerplay9422 I was thinking even if he ripped on it for several minutes, it would be like a checked box. I really have no preference, I personally like it but I understand if people overall don't.
I love this series of videos, but sadly this game was too boring for me even though im a huge fan of GX. I tried back in the day but the whole system was kind of tedious and having played the Tag Force games with their fast gameplay was the nail on the coffin.
return of the king
There truly is nobody covering the yu-gi-oh video games as good as him! Deserves way more eyes on his work.
Return of the (Duel) King

But are they not bad cards anyways ?
Or am I missing a trick with them ?

This game is great,also pack glitch in US version was life saver
Just discovered your channel and watched all videos in 3 days. Can't wait for the next upload.
thank u so much for these retrospectives, I'm on a yugioh nostalgia binge and these vids have been super enjoyable and informative!

So excited to see you cover Tag Force

Love this series man, you are doing a great service to Yu-Gi-Oh history.
i know there are Masked Chopper OTK videos out there, how playable they actually were, well, that's another story
Glad to listen to more of your retrospectives!
this is my favorite of the yugioh games. I have so much nostalgia but would have loved a slighlty extended card pool. I think it is just well done and fun.
Well hey, stranger! What brings you to my feed after all this time? Glad to see you're still making great content.
Loved this game, it felt like I was really living the duel academy life in my mind
I agree that the amount of Yugioh games during this era definitely canibalized the series sales in the long run. I have never heard of any of these games before.
Hearing the opening song Teardrop and seeing Spirit Caller together was just a blast of nostalgia for me
Hope you're doing well! You're videos are always a joy to listen to.
Oh no I'm gonna have to wait forever for the 5Ds era won't I? (it's the only series of YGO I care about)
Someone must have activated Monster Reborn cos this guy is back
Just got this game for the first time today, I had WC07 and nightmare troubadour back in the day so I’m excited to play through this, feels familiar and new at the same time so I’m enjoying it, clocked just under five hours playtime already 😂
Tag Force next bayBEEEE
Tag Force 2 is my favorite and it's opening hits hard as the best of the GX games. Also Tag Force 3 is just really odd for it never coming out in NA and for it having 5DS era cards/Tuners which was so baffling to see.
Finally,tag force 3 and 6 are the best
Hopefully the king will return one day
Little correction about the deck builder: it is accessible anywhere (the right most button on the bottom right on the touch screen)
For you, what are the top 3 games?
The promotional cards are always so random. I wonder why.
Looking Forward to the 5D’s Retrospective, and maybe one for the Zexal 3DS Game and the Arc V one that never got localized but has Fan Translation Roms
Very grindy but fun game
Hope to see you again soon stay healthy
Interesting.

That game does not deserve to be talked about.

@@Mika-hk3sm Speaking of, where the fuck's he been?
Are you going to cover the tag force series?
I love this game
tag force next
Really hard 2 get 100% all cards
Which games are in the nightmare troubadour line ?
Tag force plz?
I love this series of videos, but sadly this game was too boring for me even though im a huge fan of GX. I tried back in the day but the whole system was kind of tedious and having played the Tag Force games with their fast gameplay was the nail on the coffin.
What happened to this series?
This game is garbage
The worst part of this game is looking for people to duel
I have all the cards
U don't need to go to ur room for the deck builder
