Yu-Gi-Oh Early Days Collection is now available for Nintendo Switch and PC. While PC players will miss out on the Secret Rare Yu-Gi-Oh Trading Card that's packaged with the physical edition for Switch at launch, Green Man Gaming has an awesome deal on Steam keys. For a limited time, you can snag a Steam key for only $39 (was $50).

The compilation includes 14 Yu-Gi-Oh games released from 1998-2003 for Game Boy, GBC, and GBA. Some of the games were never released outside of Japan until now.

Five of the 14 games in the Early Days Collection are getting North American releases for the first time.

Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters was the franchise's first big hit and the only entry to release on original Game Boy. The series really hit its stride on Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance in the early 2000s. Remarkably, all 14 games were released within a five-year window from 1998 to 2003.

Even more remarkably, that's not even all of the Yu-Gi-Oh games that released during that time. The Early Days Collection contains the first 14 Yu-Gi-Oh handheld games, but Konami also developed several console for PlayStation, GameCube, and PlayStation 2 in the late '90s and early 2000s.
