Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s Stardust Accelerator World Championship 2009 Download – Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s Stardust Accelerator World Championship 2009 Review

The new Wii title, Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s Wheelie Breakers, picks up at around this point and bases its gameplay on a version of the combination of racing and dueling that the cartoon showcases both Yusei and Jack competing in.

This DS title, though, takes a different turn — it casts you as an all-new character, starting off in the slums of Satellite just like Yusei did and offering an RPG-like Story Mode that has your hero (whom you customize and name) finding and befriending characters from the show, recovering lost memories to overcome the (admittedly cliched) amnesia that afflicts him at the story’s start, and doing lots and lots of dueling.

If you’ve played Pokemon Colosseum  or Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness on the GameCube, you’ll have a good sense of what the Story Mode feels like — it most reminds me of those titles, with its fully 3D environment exploration, conversations with non-player characters and light puzzle-solving.

It’s an impressive adventure — not because it’s all that complicated or grand in scope in the end, but because it’s there at all. The ’07 and ’08 World Championship Yu-Gi-Oh! games had no storylines whatsoever, and this one’s giving us not only a full adventure, but one that’s comparable to first-party Nintendo console RPGs?

It’s certainly still a Yu-Gi-Oh! design, though, even given its similar vibe to those Pokemon games — because the combat is all about playing the Duel Monsters card game. You come across several road-blocking opponents on your quest to recover your memories and make it out of the Satellite district and back to the City, and each one won’t let you pass until you’ve bested him or her in a round of card-battling. This aspect has both positives and negatives.
