www.duelarena.konami.com/index.phpIt's in the beta phase now, we'll see how this develops over time, but at least it's an official simulator. When this gets going, maybe we can make a section about it and/or adjust the tournaments with this in mind.

Should we just start sharing our Duelist IDs here then so we can add each other.
One thing to remember it is going to take time to play this and build up cards necessary for our decks that we use on DN.

As it is, it's just another Yu-Gi-Oh! online and destined to fail.

As it is, it's just another Yu-Gi-Oh! online and destined to fail. To me Konami needs to create a simulator similar to Devpro. Just have every card available to players @ the start, for free play with other players. The duelist avy decks are a pretty cool idea that will set them apart for Devpro. The Yugi deck most players receive @ the start is actually a step up from starter decks, has some solid strategy to it. Only going throught the "story" of the game with those decks opens up a better challenge IMO. Just wondering if Konami will consider doing Tag duels, handicap duels, or 4 way duels on this simulator. I few critiques that I have: 1) Good to have all the sets in the actual packs, unlike the other YGO video games. This way we can target certain packs for certain cards. However, not having PRIO available, even in the BETA, is a bad thing. This only means there is going to be an issue with updating this thing wiht the current sets 2) Would like to have seen Konami to give attention to pendulum zones now (even without access to pendulum cards and summoning mechanic), thus avoiding having to update the field when pendulum summoning becomes TCG legal. Would have been really cool if Konami included the pendulum summoning mechanic in the tutorial. Let players get a handle on how this works.

Made an account if anyone wants to do some test play with me to see how well this program runs. It seems kinda cool.
Duelist Code: 8332-5488-1604
Anyone noticed "Coins" yet? They aren't DP (Duel Points) and you need them if you want more than 1 free partner a day or some other stuff.. how do you get them?
Bad things: How about the fact that you can duel 5 times, but after that it takes 100 minutes to be able to duel again unless you want to spend 500 coins. Or, the fact that the site disconnects. A LOT.

If the game "freezes" on you but the music keeps playing, don't surrender! Just click on the other icons on the right and the game will eventually pick up again and you can play on. Better than losing out on Rental Points, etc.

I have tried that before. I am going to try this out again. It froze while loading on me too.

That Roid deck gave me an idea I don't think I've seen in Roid decks before, and I'll post up a deck of some of that deck's accomplishments due to this new idea.

Super Vechroid deck is one of them. The last one was supposed to be a HERO deck Drill.

With the exception of the freezing issues, it plays a lot like the video games from the GB/DS. Got earn DP/Coins in order to buy up packs.
Really wish Konami would consider adding in a passcode option. Make it easier for deck building to play with friends.

The only reason I use simulators is to enjoy the freedom of building and playing at will. This doesn't really interest me.
On a lighter note, it's fairly intuitive so at least there is some sort of fun value there. Maybe once it's out of Beta I'll be more inclined to try.

If this was something they put onto the 3Ds I would be very happy with it.
As for a website I am not sure they will get the volume of traffic in players say DN or Devpro gets.
