The Digimon franchise, one of Bandai's many cash cows, is no stranger to the Collectible Card Game - six prominent official card games have existed, each with generally different rules and mechanics. * Digital Monster Card Game / Hyper Colosseum was the first Digimon card game, and generally the most famous; this is the game that featured in Digimon Tamers, and was depicted completely accurately in that there actually were digital card readers able to be used in playing the game. It was brought to the rest of the world, mostly unmodified, as the Digi-Battle Card Game. While it was retired in the west circa Tamers presumably out of lack of interest, it kept going in Japan even through the franchise's anime hiatus and was retired around the launch of Digimon Savers. * D-Tector Card Gam

  • The Digimon franchise, one of Bandai's many cash cows, is no stranger to the Collectible Card Game - six prominent official card games have existed, each with generally different rules and mechanics. * Digital Monster Card Game / Hyper Colosseum was the first Digimon card game, and generally the most famous; this is the game that featured in Digimon Tamers, and was depicted completely accurately in that there actually were digital card readers able to be used in playing the game. It was brought to the rest of the world, mostly unmodified, as the Digi-Battle Card Game. While it was retired in the west circa Tamers presumably out of lack of interest, it kept going in Japan even through the franchise's anime hiatus and was retired around the launch of Digimon Savers. * D-Tector Card Game was the second international card game, and the first to be an entirely western creation; it was designed as a tie-in to the then-current Digimon Frontier anime, and specifically Bandai's line of tie-in D-Tector Digivice virtual pets; the game's main draw was that each contained a "Digi-Digit" to input into the Digivice to add that card's Digimon to one's collection on the device. * Digimon Collectible Card Game was the third and final international card game, also a creation of Bandai of America. It's a bit of an anomaly; it was released in a period during which there was no anime and Digimon was effectively comatose in the west, nor was Bandai of America doing any other merchandise of the franchise at the same time. * Alpha Evolve was the second Japanese card game, launched alongside the Digimon Savers anime. It was something of an expansion to the gameplay of Hyper Colosseum - most mechanics were maintained, but Digimon cards now had HP and speed values. Special game-bridging compatibility rules apparently exist. * Super Digica Taisen is the third Japanese card game, released concurrent to the Digimon Xros Wars anime. * Digimon Jintrix is the fourth Japanese card game, released concurrent to Taisen and the Digimon Xros Wars anime. It's a fairly unusual game: cards are purchased in physical form, then codes from them are inputted into the game's website, on which the game is actually played. It's considered particularly notable by the fandom because new releases of card sets regularly introduce completely new Mons, moreso than any previous card game.
