.Gideon. Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 I thought MTG is #1 since it's the "mother of card games". And was released 5 years before YGO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiro Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 I detest this. MTG is indeed the 'mother of card games', and if it were to be thrown off the title of 'best selling card game', than it should be done by a card game worthy of doing that. Yu-Gi-Oh! is not worthy of doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Gideon. Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 There is a reason I think YGO is being sold even in the third world countries (Kuwait, UAE, KSA, ...etc) and it is very popular there. while MTG's not. so, yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
