Duel Terminals
From Yu-Gi-Oh!
Duel Terminals are a relatively new idea, and were designed by Konami to assist in introducing the then-new Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime, to new and existing players.

[edit] Overview
The Duel Terminal itself looks like a traditional Arcade machine, and has a variety of game modes, using cards from the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game. Players can either use a Deck chosen by the system, or the Duelist can use his/her own cards, provided they have ＤＵＥＬ ＴＥＲＭＩＮＡＬ where the Edition should be. These cards are recognized by the built-in card scanner, allowing the player to "use" the card in the game. "Duel Terminal Edition" cards are only available from "Duel Terminals". The game itself is priced at 100 Yen per play in Japan.
[edit] Game Modes
The Duel Terminal allows you to choose between several modes of play:
- "Action Duel"
- "Speed Duel"
- "Tutorial"
- "Card Only Get"
