Yu-Gi-Oh! Gotta catch 'em all! Or something like that anyway. Yes, this week, we're giving some long overdue attention to one of the slew of fine anime card-collecting games that stood in the very dark shadow of Pokémon. The Eternal Duelist Soul may not be the first Yu-Gi-Oh game. It may not be the best. But it's definitely one that Ashley played way back when so now we have to talk about it. What could there possibly be to say, we hear you ask? Well listen in and you'll find out!

Listen in to find out!
