I was hoping for a decent mah jongg game and I got it! Yakuman is a pretty standard set up mah jongg video game featuring mario characters and such. The cartridge features (as best as I can tell) single quick play, challenge mode and two forms of wireless play (one I assume is single-card play). If you have no idea how to play mah jongg this game will not be fun at all for you. However, if you're already at least a novice player, and are somewhat familiar with the Japanese ruleset for mah jongg, you'll do fine. Unfortunately, to take advantage of the enormous ammounts of reference in this title, you'll have to be able to read some Japanese. But if you love mah jongg, and can figure out the menu via trial and error, it won't be long until you've got the hang of it.
