| + | '''Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004''', known in Japan as '''Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters Expert 3''', is a video game based on the [[Yu-Gi-Oh!]] franchise. |
| | + | |
| | + | The game has been released on the Game Boy Advance. |
| | | | |

| − | The game features 1,138 cards (201 [[Spell]]s, 109 [[Trap]]s, 55 [[Fusion Monster]]s, 16 [[Ritual Monster]]s, 224 [[Effect Monster]]s and 533 [[Normal Monster]]s).

It is noteworthy that you can collect "[[Dark Magician]]" and "[[Polymerization]]" in two different artworks, counting as different cards. |
| | + | |
| | + | ==Game Speed== |
| | + | The speed of Gameplay is relatively slow but can be sped up by holding '''L''' while dueling or just hold '''L''' while choosing an opponent. |
| | + | |
| | + | ==Opponents== |
| | + | {{Main|''Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004'' Opponents}} |
| | + | There are 28 opponents in the game. Each opponent has different skills and Decks revolving around a certain theme ([[Yugi Muto]] = Basic, Rare Hunter = Exodia, [[Yami Yugi]] = Ultimate, etc.). |
| | + | There is no conversation, you just start duels right away. |
| | | | |
| − | ==Changes since ''Stairway to the Destined Duel''==
| |
| − | The following changes were made since ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition: Stairway to the Destined Duel]]'':
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''General''' | + | Sadly the weaker opponents Decks are full of junk monsters that aren't worth battling like [[Winged Cleaver]]. |
| − | * Players can have three Decks.
| + | The stronger opposing Decks (Level Four and above) put up a higher callenge since they ignore card limitations. |
| − | * [[Password]]s have been removed.
| |
| − | * No games are played as [[Match]]es. As such, the [[Side Deck]] has been removed.
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''Campaign''' | + | Since many opponents don't use cards against opponents spells/traps the use of stalling cards like [[Gravity Bind]] can make winning a pretty easy task. |
| − | * The story element has been removed.
| |
| − | * The game returns to the format of choosing opponents from a list, rather than a map.
| |
| − | * Characters do not speak.
| |
| − | * The option to choose a random opponent is added.
| |
| − | * Opponents have on-screen numbering.
| |
| − | * A Deck theme is displayed for each opponent.
| |
| − | * Opponents are given scores from 1 to 5 for "Attack", "Defense", "Strategy", "Intellect" and "Luck"
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''Cards'''
| + | see also: |
| − | * On-screen numbering is re-introduced. | + | * [[Portal:Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004 characters|Characters]] |
| − | * [[Monster Token]]s and the cards that Summon them have been removed.
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''Deck edit'''
| + | ==Trunk== |
| − | * Cards can be filtered by Level group (1–4, 5–6, 7+).
| + | The number of total cards shown in the top bar is sadly not the number of different cards collected so far. It really means the total number of all cards you have. |
| − | * Cards can be ordered by category (frame color).
| + | The other numbers in the sub categories only refer to the number of cards in your actually used deck. |
| | | | |
| − | ==Cards==
| + | You can sort cards (only ascending) by chosing sorting criterias one after another. The previous sortings are kept as far as possible. (i.e. sort by 1) name 2) DEF 3) ATK) |
| − | {{Main|List of ''Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004'' cards}}
| |
| | | | |
| − | ==Campaign==
| + | Sadly there is no useful sorting criteria for spells and traps beside "name". |

| − | There are 28 opponents in the game. Each opponent has different skills and Decks revolving around a certain theme ([[Yugi Muto]] = Basic, Rare Hunter = Exodia, [[Yami Yugi]] = Ultimate, etc.).
| |
| | | | |
| − | There is no conversation when beginning a Duel with the game beginning immediately after selecting the opponent.
| + | For faster scrolling through the card list push the left/right-button.You wil jump to the next 4 cards. For even faster scrolling hold the B-button and press up/down. |
| | | | |
| − | The speed of play is slow but can be sped up by holding '''L''' while Dueling or just hold '''L''' while choosing an opponent. | + | You start the game with 120 random cards. The default Deck can be optimzed right away with other cards in your trunk in most cases. |
| | | | |
| − | The weaker opposing Decks are full of junk monsters that aren't worth battling like "[[Winged Cleaver (World Championship 2004)|Winged Cleaver]]".
| + | Their are cards which are Limited or Semi-Limited. (for you but not for the opponents of higher level) |
| − | The stronger opposing Decks (Level Four and above) put up a higher challenge since they ignore card limitations.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Since many opponents do not use cards against your Spells/Traps, the use of stalling cards like "[[Gravity Bind (World Championship 2004)|Gravity Bind]]" can make winning very simple.
| + | ==Receiving Cards== |
| | + | After winning a duel you can choose a booster pack containing 5 cards. |
| | | | |
| − | ==Edit Deck menu==
| + | In most cases one of the cards is a (highlighted) rare card. There can be only 1 rare card per pack. |
| − | The number of total cards shown in the top bar is not the number of different cards collected so far. It really means the total number of all cards you have. The other numbers in the sub categories only refer to the number of cards in the Deck you currently use.
| + | Since the AI wants you to receive all cards in the game most of the cards he offers are cards you haven't collected so far which makes it hard to collect 3 copies especially of the rare cards. |
| | | | |
| − | You can sort cards (only ascending) by choosing sorting criteria one after another. The previous sorting criteria are kept as far as possible (i.e. sort by 1) name 2) [[DEF]] 3) [[ATK]]). There is no useful sorting criteria for Spells and Traps other than "name".
