Play Metal Fight Bayblade - Choujou Kessen! Big Bang Bladers (J) Online

Hudson Soft released Metal Fight Beyblade: Choujou Kessen! Big Bang Bladers for the Nintendo DS in 2012, a time when the handheld was still home to a lot of anime tie-in games. It's a title that fits right in with that era, offering a dedicated digital space for Beyblade battles without much pretense.

You control a Blader, assembling your Beyblade from a selection of parts before sending it into the arena. The main goal is to win tournaments by out-spinning or knocking out your opponent's top. Signature mechanics include tapping the touch screen in rhythm during clashes to execute special attacks and experimenting with countless part combinations to discover builds with better balance, attack power, or stamina. The pacing is quick, with matches that are over in seconds if your setup is wrong, and the difficulty comes from learning how parts interact. It feels like a chaotic test lab where a successful creation brings a real sense of accomplishment.
