It's clear this collection is just for the Gameboy games, but I hope they'll add that in the next collection. I love the nostalgia of physical yugioh games that comes with promo card :)

Back then I enjoyed the Yu Gi Oh card game quite a bit. Had a sort of club where we played once a week. Never really got to try the video games however if I would the one I be playing will be from this era.
