4.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Game!!!, June 2, 2003

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition Stairway to the Destined Duel (Video Game)

This game is a must. Konami takes the wonderful Eternal Duelist Soul up a notch. In Eternal Duelist you dueled in the town of Domino for plain fun. Here, it's Battle City. Duel new characters like Yugi's Grandpa, Bandit Keith, an improved Tea, and a new rare hunter: Odion.

Plus, Stairway to the Destined Duel has zones. You can move from zone to zone, challenging duelists and finding an occasional random tournament here and there. And you can do all this in French, English, Spanish, Italian, German, or Japanese.

The cards from Eternal Duelist Soul return, but there's a new addition!(drumroll please!) Behold! Labyrinth of Nightmare Cards!
Your favorite cards like Destiny Board, Torrential Tribute, and Bell of Destruction can now be used!

This is a pretty cool game. It is a good game to get if you don't have any other Yu-Gi-Oh games, but if you have any others (besides Dark Duel Stories) this game isn't REALLY worth buying. For you collectors, there's Valkyrion The Magna Warrior, Sinister Serpent, and Harpie's Feather Duster in the game box.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yugioh World Wide Edition, May 31, 2003

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition Stairway to the Destined Duel (Video Game)

Konami does it again!being so far the 6th Yugioh video game,and 3rd gameboy yugioh game, its nearly perfect!There are only 2 things I don't like about it and they are:1.Its easy as a beginner to accdently run in to powerful duelist like Y.yugi or Seto Kabia on the world map.2.You don't really walk around in it.
But even though you can't walk around in it it is still a great game!You baiscly find each availible duelist on each day.You talk to passengers to make the day go by or you can duel.Every monday you even get a magezine with five cards!Because it takes place in battle city,there is always somethig fun to do.But watch out for rare hunters!Any die-hard yugioh fan should buy this game...

This review is from: Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition Stairway to the Destined Duel (Video Game)

I have never played Yu-Gi-Oh the card game or any previous Yu-Gi-Oh game. I am 29 years old and played pokemon extensively with my newphews during one crazed summer of their youth as well as have dabbled in "Magic: The Gathering" and previously the pen and paper role playing games as a kid.

About 1 month ago I purchased a Gameboy Advance SP and bought Wolfenstein (3-D Shooter), Shining Soul (like the first Diablo only with nes/snes anime graphics). My games quickly exhausted I went backwards to Pokemon the Trading Card game for gameboy color which also sticks out funnily in a gameboy sp. If wasn't too bad but I found the challenge and depth of real play fairly lacking. SO I READ AND RESEARCHED THE NET, READ REVIEWS CALLED MY NEPHEWS AND BOUGHT THIS GAME. Now I play almost too much.

I left off the sound used the passwords for certain cards to make a respectable deck based on the 20 monster 10 magic 10 trap card reccomendation and still preceeded to lost most of my starting games. Frustrated I almost sold the game. I figured a 29 year old should clear any kids game instantly. Well without resorting to outright cheat codes to get multiple copies of the best cards I continued to play and learned the game on the fly. I now can read the different behaviors or card play from the many different duelists and am winning 90% of my games two weeks later. There are also some excellent cards I have gotten from won matches that have no codes and have helped my deck alot. This game has become very addictive yet challenging if you face the tougher duelists. While I doubt any Yu-Gi-Oh tournament expert would struggle, this game has already paid for itself in challenge, fun, and replayability many times over. If you buy it and think its too easy keep playing till you get the unlocked characters, if it seems to hard keep playing some of the easier players. A couple dozen matches in and you'll start feeling like an expert. (If you don't play card games like this in real life I would reccomend the game for 12+). Till I find a better card game I can carry around, play by myself and save thousands versus holding all these cards in my hand I'll be burning up the lithium-ion batteries of my SP hoping the cartridge will come out one day when I finally bore of it. :-)
