Marvel Trading Card Game


Given that our last report on this game was last February, we'll be a bit more detailed about what the game's about in this post.

If the trading card game (TCG) by Upper Deck Entertainment wasn't enough for you, then the video game version of the cardboard hobby might satisfy. For one thing, the videogame version of the card-game boasts that it allows players to compete in cross-platform online play.

What platforms you ask? Well, the PSP version's been out since February, and there are reports of a PC version. What's news here is that Konami has announced that the Marvel Trading Card Game will be released for the Nintendo DS by next week. For EU folks, The PSP and PC versions should be out by May 31st, and the NDS version should roll in by July.

Yes, more platforms, more players for the online player community that Konami likes to boast about. The online community service should allow players to trade cards, purchase cards from an online store, and let players compete in various game modes and tournaments.

Does it seem like lately portable systems have tried to convert an unnatural number of their games into strategy or card-based games?

Not necessarily that this is a bad thing, but be realistic: a card game and/or strategy game doesn't need as many frames per minute, requires less UMD space, etc. than say... a first person shooter, for example.

I suppose my point here is that PSP (especially) is lacking in the performance area for some games, where it COULD outperform those card-based games. I'm kind of tired as using card games as an excuse for a portable game system.
