Sorry if there is already a topic on this but I'm curious about it. Anyway, I read on the forums on another site that Funimation has put the unedited DVD releases for Yu-Gi-Oh on hiatus because of poor sales, and I was wondering if anyone knew if there was any truth to these rumors and whether or not the same fate has befallen the unedited Shaman King DVDs

I've heard about the uneditted dvds but I didn't know they were doing poorly. I would think people would jump at the chance to see an original uncut dvd.

Sadly I really dont think its worth seeing Yugioh unedited or edited for that matter. It doesnt suprise me that yugioh dvds dont sell well...while Im not a fan of Pokemon I think it is a far superior anime although yugioh has its moments. THere is way better stuff out there.

*nods* Yeah, watching YGO edited doesn't really bother me too much, as the difference between edited/unedited aren't that drastic. I'm a little more concerned with whether or not the SK DVDs are being continued or not...

4Kids doesn't have the license to the first series. It wasn't even animated by the same company and given the content and lack of cards I don't think they'd bother with it.

Actually didn't 4Kids say in a press release that the DVD's sold extremely well? I myself have the first two uncut YGO and my sister has the first two uncut SK.

EDIT: It was this press release: animenewsnetwork.com/pressrelease.php?id=838

If the undited Yu Gi Oh dvd's were selling bad that's because they don't sell them at wal-mart.
