YOC Winter 2009 announced!

The last YOC in Yu-Gi-Oh! Online 2, hopefully.

< Preliminary Tournaments Dates >

Maintenance from Konami 5 June 2009

Its now the third week into a new season, and after some lengthy maintenance shutdowns, (that might have indicated some kind of change was coming,) we have received nothing but bitter disappointment.

The number of days since the previous pack release is over 250, and the online meta is rapidly becoming outdated, stale and repeating. The much anticipated launch into 5Ds, tuners and synchros does not look like it will happen now, or for at least the next couple of MONTHS.

So, rather than paying for this “much neglected second-class nothing-new rehash” some have started to play a different electronic format Yu-gi-oh; the Nintendo DS version “5D’s Stardust Accelerator WC2009″ has alot of features that are desperately missing from the PC version; newest cards (even its own exclusive cards) including sychros and tuners, tag team duelling, turbo duelling and so on. What’s more is you don’t have to pay for every single duel, and you can just enjoy the mind-challenge of building decks and trying different duelling methods and strategies.

I really hoped it wouldn’t come to this, but with the state that the online meta has become and with no news to indicate any hope for the future……

So instead, some people are turning to using nds emulators that run on the PC, such as : http://www.ideasemu.org/index.php
(Dont forget you may need an archive extractor to install Ideas such as: http://rarlab.com/download.htm )
and then installing a downloading program such as: http://azureus.sourceforge.net/download.php
and then visiting sites such as : http://www.mininova.org/
and then doing a search for the WC2009 rom such as “[NDS]Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds Stardust Accelerator World Championship 2009″ – either the JAP or EUR versions are fine.

Not that I would condone such actions, but when people are tired of being left behind can you really blame them ?
