Crap

Double Crap

I don't really see any of this being totally official, but it still looks grim...

This could only hurt the TCG in my opinion. =[

I saw this 2 days ago, I just never felt like posting it.

OMG!! The only thing that happened is that Konami took back yugimonz from upperdeck, for various reasons ( bad distribution, decline in sales. etc.) The game is not dead yet. If anything we will probably get all of the Japanese exclusives a lot faster than before. All regionals have not been canceled, as announced moments after the take over. The is still an Edison regional with 4 invites to give out.

UDE says no.

This seems really screwy. UDE had a lawsuit against Konami, and UDE had it one their front page of the yugioh section about how Konami took over. Maybe this whole problem is just a prank by UDE and Konami?

Upper Deck says they will still support the game, it will be business as usual as far as what they do for maintaining ratings and supporting organizers. I agree with Vince, this could be a good thing. Only time will tell...

Lets just hope yugioh continues to be the game that we all enjoy and love.

What makes you think we enjoy yugioh?

Or love it for that matter?
