If you're into old-school Yu-Gi-Oh! but never got to play the Japanese-exclusive GBA games, this one's a weird little time capsule. The menus are all in Japanese, but if you've played enough card games, you'll recognize the icons—just expect some trial and error figuring out deck building at first.

It's got that classic early 2000s Yu-Gi-Oh! feel—no fancy pendulum summons or link monsters here, just raw beatdowns with Blue-Eyes and Dark Magician. The AI isn't exactly brilliant, but it's fun for quick duels when you're nostalgic for simpler times. Just don't expect a deep story mode or anything.

Emulator controls take some getting used to, but once you're past that, it's a solid way to kill time if you miss the OG card game chaos.
