Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Wheelie Breakers is a Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's game for the Nintendo Wii, it is a mix of racing and dueling with cards used as power-ups", very similar to the Mario Kart series. Characters who don't have D-Wheels in the anime are given exclusive ones for this game (Such as Leo, Akiza Izinski, Luna and Mr. Armstrong). Some card effects have been changed in the game to be more suitable for the style of the game.

Story
The story mode takes the player, guided by Rally, through many head-to-head duels, leading up to the Fortune Cup and a duel with Yusei. Duels with Turbo Duelists such as Trudge and Hunter Pace are done in the real world, while those who don't use Duel Runners, such as Leo and Akiza, duel using virtual simulators.







Gameplay



The game is more akin to a racing game than Duel Monsters. Players can use monsters to defend themselves and attack opponents, magic cards that power up the player, and trap cards that can defend against player attacks. Monsters can attack if the player has enough Speed Counters that accumulate with racing, and more powerful monsters will require more Speed Counters to attack. Players each have 4000 Life Points, though a player does not lose if he/she reaches zero, they just spin out. This game will also offer a 7 opponent runner mode in which cards will change their effects to power that can help or trap players, just like "Level Down!?that will "decrease the Top Speed of a player in a higher place than [its owner] for a limited" moment. In this mode, cards will be power-ups just like in Mario Kart Series.







Promotional cards

Wheelie Breakers includes three promotional cards, which are used by Hunter Pace in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime. These include: "Skull Flame","Burning Skull Head and "Supersonic SkullFlame".
