    I'm just curious, do anybody here still play the game anymore? I know most of us probably did ten years back, because it was the best thing since sliced bread. But now, its just way too boring and expensive for my taste.

    Well, considering that there's an entire FORUM for it,...I'd say, YES, people do still play it.

    People can still discuss it without still playing it. For example, there could be a topic about memories we have had back in the day, or how the TCG has evolved/devolved Pokemon's name as a respectable franchise. Just because there is a discussion board for it does not mean with a 100% gaurantee that people still play it.

    Then why have a forum named "TCG Strategies" or "TCG Deck Reviewing"?

    I've been playing it since 2000 and I've loved every minute. It's hardly boring what with all the amazing strategies and fascinating cards. I personally don't think it's too expensive - with how popular it is I'm surprised Nintendo hasn't rocketed the prices.

    Plus, I go to a popular place with a tournament on every Saturday.

    So there's your 100% guarantee that people still play it. Unless you don't believe me.

    • I can confirm also, I'm currently still active in common tournaments called "Liga" every Saturday, i'm also present at most pre-releases. I stopped with pokemon a long time since the only place to play it was far away. But recently a new story to play it has opened near my hometown so it's easily to play whenever i want. I also just try to complete my collection regarding Magma/Aqua and recent Holon series.

    • I don't play as in a League or an oficial event, but I used to play with my friends... I don't have TCG mates anymore, but I'm too attached to my cards...
