You need to define what's meant by "YuGiOh First Series"

1997, 27 eps (ANIDB episode list)
Yu-Gi-Oh! A Shadow Game

2000, 194 eps (ANIDB episode list)
Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (Japanese Version)

2000, 194 eps (ANIDB episode list)
Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (U.S. Version)

The available DVDs (as shown on AoD) are from the 'second' season, Duel Monsters, and there are now two versions of this series.
YuGiOh (Uncut) Vol. #01: The Shadow Games (the Japanese T.V. version)
YuGiOh Vol. #01: The Heart of the Cards (Edited) (the American T.V. version)

The confusing aspect is that the first uncut DVD has been given the title of "The Shadow Games" but it isn't the same episodes found in the "A Shadow Game" series, the uncut episodes are from the "Dual Master" series.

The 'first' series (Yu-Gi-Oh! A Shadow Game) has never been translated into English as far as I'm aware but what I'm not sure of is if the rights have been obtained or not.
