In 3D MahJongg, the goal is to find pairs of matching tiles in order to remove
all tiles from the board. This sounds like a simple task, but you will soon
find that a savvy strategy - along with a bit of luck - is the key to success.

Gameplay is direct and intuitive via the Nintendo 3DS Touch Screen. You can
closely observe everything on the 3D screen and make extensive changes to the
way you view the tile layout. And you'll love the fabulous six graphics themes
from "Farm" to "Zombies".

In Adventure Mode, you will need to master 200 levels in order to unlock all
tiles, backgrounds etc. You can then use these elements in free gameplay to
create custom levels. You can also switch between classic rules and "Rivers"
rules at any time.

What's up people! Everybody is getting a linker now? Well, we recently saw
some 3DS games released without any region tag and we wanted to react a bit to
this. Don't get us wrong, we love competition and usually really appreciate this
way of tagging, but consider this:

GBA, NDS, PSP or PS3 for exemple are all real region-free consoles. Meaning that
on these consoles all the foreign games (retail or backup formats) can be played
on every machine without special modification. A region tag doesn't really matter
here, since "english first" mostly prevails on scene.

On the contrary the 3DS is natively a region locked console, with region locked
games. Imported cartridges can't normally be played on your console without hack.
So yeah, thanks to a recent Gateway update your console is now able to run imports.
We are really pleased to see this new feature, but it changes nothing to the game
structure which is locked to a certain region.

If we look at NGC, Wii or XBOX360 releases many solutions exist to play imports
(FreeLoader CDs, ISO managers, ISO patchers etc). So many, that today the region
restriction is probably no more a problem for anyone. But releases still include
a region tag if the game is not hard coded to be RF.

Maybe Nintendo will change their mind one day and will publish real RF games
like they did with Pokemon Black/White versions on Nintendo DSi. But seen
how the games are designed for now, the region tag presence seems logical to us.

Well, we wish a long life to this new handled scene and hope to see less ponies
and baby games than on NDS. Cheers to every 3DS groups around the world!
