Video Gaming News - May 2005
Los Angeles, CA (May 17, 2005) - Konami today announced new details
about Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Troubadour for the Nintendo DS.
From Konami:
Based on the popular trading card game and top-rated animated TV show, Yu-Gi-Oh!
video games continue to captivate fans of the franchise with more than six
million units sold to date in North America alone.
This September, Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Troubadour marks the first Yu-Gi-Oh! title
for the Nintendo DS. The game takes full advantage of the Nintendo DS’ touch
screen and wireless technologies. Players will use the touch screen to navigate
a city map to find duel opponents. Once a duel is initiated, the touch screen
becomes a 2D card playing field and the battle begins. The top screen becomes a
3D arena that shows monsters rising from their cards to battle for Yu-Gi-Oh!
supremacy.
The wireless gameplay is truly groundbreaking in Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Troubadour.
Players will be able to duel one another wirelessly, as well as trade over 1000
of the newest Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. A special “Friendship” feature in single player
mode will trigger special in-game events when you register your friend as duel
colleague. Another unique game mechanic found in Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Troubadour
is “Game Time,” where time within the game advances as you move and take turns
in duels. The time of day can affect duelist appearance rates and special
events. Less challenging duelists appear during morning to afternoon “Game
Times” while more difficult opponents appear during the evening times. With all
these innovative features, Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Troubadour will offer fresh
gameplay to the most experienced Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelists.
