Topic: Nintendo samurai card game

My best friend had a physical card game played like war. Where both people played different cards based on Japanese soldiers and warriors like the samurai each had a picture of the warrior and a number you would pick what to play and if your card beat the other one you got the card. I remember the shock when I saw it was made by Nintendo. I just trying to remember the name.

This game totally brings back memories of rainy afternoons spent glued to the screen, strategizing and battling.

Anyone else ever notice how these side-scrolling card games scratch a similar itch to classic PC games like spider solitaire? There's something about the building, sequencing, and maneuvering that feels oddly comforting, even though they're completely different genres.
