>canonicity is ambiguous.
let me explain
>Stan Lee "created Spiderman", Marvel holds the rights. If you want to license spiderman, you ask Marvel. Stan Lee gets paid anyway. Sony got the film rights aand now the game rights.
in comparison
>Kaz created yugioh. Shueisha holds the rights. If you want to license yugioh, you ask Shueisha. TV Tokyo has the television rights. Konami has the video and card game rights, and, by virtue of absorbing 4kids' subsidiary, overseas television rights
in this battle, neither Ash nor Yugi are taken from the material as Spiderman is, their canonicity lays on the anime which is owned by the same company TV Tokyo
Konami has no problem bring all yugioh together. this is not the case for Ash who gets erased from the videogames possibly by request of either gamefreak or tv tokyo. yes, games are non-canon to Ash.
