Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH showcases social elements of Yu-Gi-Oh! as new DS title uses Wi-Fi capabilities for global dueling
Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has announced it will launch
Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2007 for Nintendo DS in April, offering
users an opportunity to play the ever-popular Trading Card Game against
friends via the Nintendo machine's wireless and Wi-Fi facilities.
The
official game of the annual Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament,
the DS title offers a stunning simulation of the Trading Card Game,
with users constructing, organising and dueling using the stylus. Every
aspect of the Trading Card Game has been faithfully recreated, and the
DS game includes all 1600 of the latest cards, allowing for even more
attacking, spell-casting and defending possibilities. Also, owners of
the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Spirit Caller for DS will be able to trade entire
decks between the two games and, after beginning the game, can access
every card in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Spirit Caller via the game's card recipe.
Yu-Gi-Oh!
World Championship 2007 also includes a wealth of dueling
possibilities. An extensive array of options allow for single-player
duels against a host of CPU-controlled opponents; Limited Duels wherein
only certain cards are available; and Survival Duels where the aim is
simply to beat a succession of duelists for as long as possible. The
social element of the Trading Card Game is also enhanced via wireless
and Wi-Fi modes, allowing players to compete with friends or against
players from all over the world.
Wireless games can be played
between two players with copies of the game, while the Wi-Fi mode opens
the challenge to players from all over. Cards can also be traded and
swapped via these wireless options as players look to strengthen their
packs, and Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2007 also supports the Nintendo
Wi-Fi's Voice Chat feature, allowing players to chat to each other
before each duel. In keeping with previous Konami titles, the game also
comes with three limited edition Yu-Gi-Oh! cards for use in the Trading
Card Game.
