I never really liked Beyblade. At least Bakugan actually changes into monsters and uses cards as well, Beyblades you just gotta hope your top doesn't stop spinning...
Beyblade's have bit-beasts. Bakugan have monsters. Yeah. But I think Beyblade might be something for you if you just want to play something that's so simple, but looks like one of the Poekmon or Yu-Gi-Oh! games a lot of people play.
