People still play this game?

*sigh..* Yugioh bashing... Since you people posting before don't seem to understand, I'll say this for Yugioh... It is relatively simple, yes.. then again, so is Pokemon. Yugioh however has a few advantages over Pokemon and some of the others. In Yugioh, you can use the same cards you have had for years. There is no modified format where you are limited to only the last couple sets to be released, and you don't have to deal with getting quite as many duplicates in every set. There are a few people out there who do still use original deck ideas, those who just use the same deck type are much like the hordes of people in Pokemon using only LMS, Eeveelutions, and other similar deck types. Those of us who do play the game but can't afford cards just use YVD.. At any rate, Pokemon and Yugioh will start to die down sooner or later. Nintendo can only keep releasing so many games before the series just dies off.. After all, who really wants to have to catch over 1,000 pokemon in some version perhaps 20 years from now?

I saw packs for a Battlestar Galactica TCG once. I never saw anything for it again.

A lot of TCGs are like that.

lol.

A friend bought me a Gundam Wing TCG booster pack for my birthday 6ish years ago. I never heard or saw anything about it ever again.



BTW, for a large list of TCGs no one cares about (as well as a few popular ones) check out the top of this page: http://pojo.com/

In Yugioh, you can use the same cards you have had for years. There is no modified format where you are limited to only the last couple sets to be released, and you don't have to deal with getting quite as many duplicates in every set.

Magic has this in Type 1 (and to an extent 1.5), and Pokémon has this in Unlimited. It's nothing specific to Yu-Gi-Oh.

Thing is, Type 2 and Modified force people to buy cards more often, so those are the formats given the most support (aside from Limited, where you buy new cards for every event). While it'd be fun to see the old Pokémon classics (Oak, SER, etc) get more use, it's still a business that the TCG companies run, and they get no money if people are buying no new cards.

Yu-Gi-Oh has problems, yes. So do Magic and Pokémon. It's just that Yu-Gi-Oh has more problems than the rest of them.
