I may not play the actual game anymore but dueling online is pretty cool to finally have, I think. Of course, its based off of GX so there lies reluctance.

For those who just can't wait, this game should be available now from your import dealer of choice, under the title "Spirit Summoner." It's been discovered that the Japanese release of the game contains both Japanese and English game text (dialogue, card text, etc.), depending on the OS language of your handheld when you start a new game.
In other words, if your DS is set to use English in the firmware menus, you'll get almost the exact same experience you would if you had bought the US release, barring any typo corrections or bugfixes. Or, you can set your DS to Japanese, start up a new game, and play it in that language. The language preference is stored in the save file, so you can start a game in Japanese and then switch the OS back to English, if that tickles your fancy—the game will still play in Japanese.

I was going to not buy this when I saw the "GX" in the title. Then I noticed the little blue Wi-Fi icon. Now I'm buying it TWICE.

The only reason I didn't buy Nightmare Troubadour after renting it is I knew they'd make a wi-fi YGO on DS eventually. Took a bit longer than I'd hoped but I'm definitely getting it ASAP.
