History VideoGame / YuGiOhCapsuleMonsterColiseum

''Yu-Gi-Oh! Capsule Monster Coliseum'' is a ''Franchise/YuGiOh'' video game for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation2, and a successor to ''VideoGame/YuGiOhMonsterCapsuleBreedAndBattle'' and ''VideoGame/YuGiOhMonsterCapsuleGB''.

* BossBanter: Duelists will say different things depending on how the duel is going, whether you brought half of the maximum pieces into the fight, when monsters are attacked or destroyed, when half of a player's monsters are destroyed, whether one side is making a comeback, when you take a long time to move your pieces, and when losing or winning. There's also banter before and after the fights, and dummied-out dialogue reveals even more variations, like when evolving or fusing monsters and when the player surrenders a match.

* UnwinnableByMistake: It's possible, in a match, to end up with pieces that can only move in certain patterns against one that manages to evade them perfectly no matter how hard you try to box it in. Since the [[SpitefulAI A.I. doesn't know when to quit]], they'll happily continue to avoid your pieces with it, despite being unable to do anything else. In such cases, the only way to end the match would be to surrender or let the AI destroy your Symbol.

* DummiedOut: The game's [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLffRq-K8cG5zuF69t8M12FUnxMpHREshD audio files]] have dummied-out quotes for Yami Yugi having specific battle banter for Marik and Shadi. Every other opponent has quotes for fusing monsters, evolving monsters, stepping on traps, using monsters' special abilities, and when you surrender a match.

Based off of the Capsule Monster Chess stories in the manga and the real-life Capsule Monsters board game, it follows Yugi and his quest to earn the title of King of Capsule Monsters as he battles many opponents from the series, training his monsters along the way.

''Yu-Gi-Oh! Capsule Monster Coliseum'' is a ''Franchise/YuGiOh'' video game for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation2.

** Shadi's first level has both Symbols separated from the main forces, meaning moving your Symbol out of the way or attacking his takes priority over attacking monsters.

* JackOfAllStats: Water, Light, and Wood monsters have well-rounded attack, defense, and movement.

Gameplay is a turn-based strategy game similar to chess. Each monster has an attribute, level, and movement range, which determine its stats, how far they can move, and how well they do on certain terrain and against certain monsters. The game can be won in one of two ways: destroying your opponent's Symbol, or destroying all of your opponent's monsters.

** Unlike previous Capsule Monster games, you can move and attack with more than one piece at a time.
