Quick little question:

What's the normal size of a trading card like Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokémon and such? I need to know so I can make some cards of my own that will fit in a card sleeve. I'd prefer getting the size in millimeters, although converting from inches shouldn't be a problem.

Yu-Gi-Oh cards are actually smaller than the normal CCG card size (re: cards like MtG). This is done purposefully so that you have to buy specific card sleeves for them, instead of cheaper (and higher quality) third-party sleeves.

Thanks! This helps a lot.

Oh, and Yu-Gi-Oh cards are a ripoff? Who'd have thought!

I remember a lot of people at the local CCG gathering place really angry about it. But then again, it was their own fault for playing the game, right?

Eh....I still buy the high quality third party sleeves for my YGO cards...

they fit a lil loose in the width, but I've never had them come out of the packaging while doing so.

I thought they were smaller for the same reason Nintendo stuff is smaller - younger target audience.
