Mahjong Kyōretsuden: Nishi Nihon-hen (麻雀狂列伝 -西日本編-, Mahjong Enthusiast: West Japan Edition) is a mahjong simulator released in 1990 for the Neo Geo as a launch title in Japan only and later ported in 1994 for the Neo Geo CD. It supports the Neo Geo Mahjong controller, which was originally made specifically for this game, and it also allows the use of memory cards to transfer saves between the MVS and AES versions of the game.

Story[]

Glittering neon lights dance on the wet pavement. The rain that had been pouring down until just now gently wrapped around his shoulders. He has a habit of walking with his shoulders slightly shrugged, and he is a well-known professional mahjong player in this town, the Kitashinchi area of ​​Osaka. His parents died when he was young, and he was raised by his only blood relative, his older brother Ryuichi, and eventually became separated from his older brother. It was around that time that he made up his mind to live on this path, at the age of eighteen. Since then, he has lived in a world of extreme competition, sometimes cheerfully, sometimes hurt, believing in a reunion with his older brother, Ryuichi. One day, by chance, a clue came to him...

Overview[]

In this game players follow the story of a common salaryman and mahjong enthusiast who is searching for his brother. At the beginning of the game players can customize the look of the main character by choosing preset types of hair, eyes, nose, mouth and facial hair. The game is divided into story scenes, where the player visits various mahjong parlors and challenges other characters, and the game scenes, where the main gameplay occurs.

In the MVS version of the game the story scenes are timed, forcing the player to insert more credits in order to keep watching the scenes; this requirement was obviously removed in the home console versions of the game.
