Yeah, WCST 2005 is the only game that's the closest to GOAT, but I do love that Duel Academy follows the Reaper Format as well as WCS 2010 and Duel Transfer have both the Edison Format and the September 2010 banlist! It was nice to play these games for the first time as a kid and experience what it was like to play during those formats as a boy with nobody to play with haha.
Nightmare Troubadour is pretty darn close to Goat Format too. It was actually released right after the format ended (CRV came out in NA on August 17th, Nightmare Troubadour on August 30th), features plenty of the card pool, and runs off of the April '05 banlist as well.
For me Goat is most fun when you play wild, off the rails decks. My favorites are Horus the Black Flame Dragon and Flute of Summoning Dragon Turbo, though Flute in particular is far from competitive. For me, WC2005 would be fantastic, if it only had a bigger card pool and more accurate anime decks. As it is, it's GOOD, but needs more depth in deck building to be great
Completely agree. In fact, my problem with "competitive players" is that they all use the same 2-3 decks. Creating your own deck in half the fun in these games.
My most favorite of the World Championship titles are the 3 5Ds titles because they have both a Story Mode that allows you to basically play as self-insert character in what is essentially alternate versions of 5Ds S1 for Stardust Accelerator, 5Ds S2 for Reverse of Arcadia, and 5Ds S3 for Into the Nexus complete with on foot sections, Duel Runner sections, on-foot duels both 1v1, and tag and Turbo Duels and a World Championship Mode for those who want the OCG/TCG simulator experience.
Dude why this documentary-like videos you are making doesn't have tens of thousands of views? It makes no sense, the quality here is easily comparable to those channels with thousands of subscribers. This makes no sense! For god's sake folks, give this channel some credits!!!!
What a lovely surprise this retrospective is! I was feeling nostalgic and wanted to check out one of the older YGO games and while looking for info on them I stumbled across this channel - I'm really enjoying what I've seen so far, these videos are great!
WC 2005 was the only Yu-Gi-Oh game I had as a kid and I felt bad for my friends, most of whom had "Power of Chaos" (either Yugi or Kaiba version) - while 1 friend only had "Reshef of Destruction". The Power of Chaos games had only 1 opponent with a single deck you could duel against (until Joey version came out) and you only got 1 random card if you won. Reshef of Destruction is *ridiculously* hard and requires insane amount of grinding in order to make any half-decent deck. On the other hand, in WC 2005 I had many different opponents with different decks and reasonably paced card acquisition. Oh, and I found it hillarious that you could duel *everyone* in town, including random cats and dogs. XD
Just beat wide world edition after years of not knowing how to beat it just today and felt the itch for another game, so based on this review I bought 7 trials and looking forward to it! Thanks for the vid
In Marik's Realm you cannot just fight Yami Bakura. You can also fight Marik and Atem. They always swap places. Also the game was awesome because you could have a 99999 ATK Gren Maju.
my favourite goat decks are any that can exploit A Legendary Ocean + Gravity Bind/Level Limit Area-B, usualy some kind of direct LP attacking decks with cards like Amphibious Bugroth MK-3 and a slew of negate cards like Solemn Judgement.
This game feels a lot like Mario Kart Super Circuit or GTA on the GBA, in terms of scope (relative to its time) and how outdated it has become. In the same way I poured at least 100 hours on MKSC or GTA GBA because they were sorta-console-quality games on the go, if someone told my younger self that there was a YGO sim with JRPG-like overworld and many powerful cards from the get-go, I would buy it in a heartbeat. But nowadays I much prefer the more "contained" stories like RoD/tSC etc. especially since (with the advent of speed duels) I enjoy the "physical" game much more (and said format is dirt cheap).
I'm surprised you didn't mention how...broken this game can be. It's very Pokemon Red/Blue, in that you'll have to go out of your way to see the glitchiness, but not by much.
6:17-6:22 I will confess that when I was a kid, I couldn't figure out how to edit your deck to take out the illegal cards of the week so I got frustrated and returned this game back to the store.
Who else tried to turn off the game after losing in the shadow realm area trying to not lose money but still lose the money 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️😂 such an op game
Great video. I'm trying to remember a game boy yugioh game I played backed, then that was similar to 2004. I remember you flipped coins to start. I love WC 2004 because it's simply playing the game. Not sure if the one I'm thinking of is before or after but I remember using yata gaurasu. It had marshmellon, vampire lord. And the fields changed with a field card. It was mostly just playing yugioh, no rpg. Can anyone help?
Can you do a video on how to connect it to GX spiritcaller to nightmare troubledour and if you have to actually beat the story mode to be able to send the god cards to that game and also canbyou send all 3 of them or no?
I lost most of my love for this game whenever I hit the postgame location, having to play outright broken decks against other outright broken decks ends up like...overstimulating you, after some duels you just see cards flying and being destroyed and discarded every second until the opponent it's finally either bricked or with an empty field and hand. I would rather have all these characters with well-thought interesting decks instead of "x3 of every limited and forbidden card LOL" In the end, ranked tournament Kaiba it's the most powerful character without a ridiculous deck and he's also super easy because he constantly bricks himself too
YWC 2006 has a bigger card pool that includes all the goat format staples + the banlist, so I I don't get how this game is the "closest representation to fan-favorite goat format" besides being from the same year. 7 Trials doesnt even have Scapegoat lol. In other words, you can actually play goat format in YWC 2006.
Guessing the next game is Nightmare Troubadour? I think Little Kuriboh said on record that that was one of the first few Yu-Gi-Oh! games he played, so it'll be interesting to see if is any good
I will personally never understand why to make a game an RPG-adventure when it has no business actually being one. The gameplay is basically "Go get cash until your deck is good enough to win" and the story is "do tournaments and a few silly sidequests until you win", so they didn't really have to include the overworld. Otherwise...it's a Yu-gi-oh simulator on the GBA, so it's a decent time by default. It even retains the same factor of being kinda buggy. And next time in the WC-line of games, we get the game where they for some silly reason managed to have the most simple of errors, that would make it impossible to get 100% completion if a random dude called Scrub Busta did not push out the info on what byte in the ROM is incorrect and needs to be changed. Legendary stuff, this game-programming.
Compared to 2006, and even to 2004, this game was a bit of an L. I felt like a decent chunk of the cards that I wanted to build a deck with in GOAT format, weren't in the game.

World Championship 2006 is a good Reaper Format game too since it goes right up through Shadow of Infinity

Horus is decently competitive if you build a Reasoning Gate deck around it
@@InvaderWeezle Still could be competitive regardless of that.

Love the character artwork in this one. I wish it had an interesting story to go with it, but it's still very good.
When you said "the black void of my brain" instead of the much lower hanging "black void of my heart" I instantly subscribed

Guys literally one of the best channels on TH-cam
This was my first YGO game and it made me a diehard fan 😎 I played this game nonstop as a kid and I still adore it today
I love this game! I played it a lot when I was in university. It was one of my favorite ways to relax a little after studying.
What a lovely surprise this retrospective is! I was feeling nostalgic and wanted to check out one of the older YGO games and while looking for info on them I stumbled across this channel - I'm really enjoying what I've seen so far, these videos are great!
Always interesting hearing about the games, I never owned or played this game, so it was nice hearing about it!

I knew I had one of these GBA games as a kid, glad to finally figure out it was this one!
This made me really happy to remember this and the old YGO video games I used to play ❤
In Marik's Realm you cannot just fight Yami Bakura. You can also fight Marik and Atem. They always swap places.
Also the game was awesome because you could have a 99999 ATK Gren Maju.
8:07 Solid Snake is there too
My favorite championship game! ❤ The black board makes everything easy to see, I love having an RPG style character & the tournaments were cool.
Nice review!!! im glad the algorithm recomended me your chanel
love your videos man! a under rated channel for sure. keep it up!
I'm honestly really sad they skipped over the format of Dark Crisis. It's one of my favorites for a lot of strategies.
my favourite goat decks are any that can exploit A Legendary Ocean + Gravity Bind/Level Limit Area-B, usualy some kind of direct LP attacking decks with cards like Amphibious Bugroth MK-3 and a slew of negate cards like Solemn Judgement.

2:15 Funny enough, one of the European finalists (or the winner; can't remember) of the lastest Rush Duel tournament uses TWO Kaibaman in his deck XD
I loved this game!
I'm surprised you didn't mention how...broken this game can be. It's very Pokemon Red/Blue, in that you'll have to go out of your way to see the glitchiness, but not by much.

Love these videos too much
Wait, so which were the 7 trails for Glory? Like beating 7 tournaments or 7 people?
Commenting for the algorithm

Can you tell to me which ygo game let's you pick from 1 of 8 booster packs.
You mean Structure decks? 2006.

You must not know much about goat format if you still think goat control is it's best deck.
