Happy to report, I did get my PS Vita and, have now played a few hours of MFC. Wow, so many things to dive into with it.. It's a bit overwhelming.. Although, I did figure out how to get into an offline match, some online function that pit me against the CPU until someone joined in. The two of us fin...

Less than 48 hours till I'll finally have the Vita in hand and can play MFC. Japan has had a two month head start on me, time to grind my way up the rankings. Sidenote: The wife is grateful that the Vita is available the day AFTER Valentine's Day.

I'm getting more curious about this "assistance" mode. Looks like you'll be playing against other clients of the Dream Club? Maybe with different girls cheering on each of the players? Don't know what that would change really but, curious to find out. Also, I haven't seen any shots of matches agains...

After more digging around, I found the following stuff on dengeki.com concerning the initial press release of MDC. Lots of pics we haven't talked about here. I'll share some of them (for those of you with just a passing interest in all this) but, here's the link to the pic gallery, if you want to ch...

I'll have the system in my hands on February 15th... I'll let you know if I can figure out any of the questionable ones after actually playing it.

Okay, the promotional video is up on YouTube. Time to scrutinize it and, see if we can find out any new info. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEsYkCmX1EU Here's what caught my attention after a few quick viewings... Note the pic below, on the left discard pile is a darkened tile. Many mahjong games d...

I wonder what the Dream Card does. Well, Dream Club titles have always contained in-game, collector's cards for the different girls. They would have stats and information such as, likes and dislikes. These would help you to determine which gifts would be the best to gain the girl's affection. Maybe...

According to the Dream Club Blogpost, they're supposed to be releasing a promotional video sometime on Friday. I'll keep an eye out for it and post a link when it goes up online. http://d3-dreamclub-blog.blogspot.com/2012/01/pv.html Also, found an article on Otaku Study that has a run down of the gi...

Yup. I'm just hoping they spend as much time on the game as they do the outfits. Oh, btw.. Here's a link to a short article about it. It's got about a couple dozen photos including what looks like the menu selection. No screen of game options but, some different views of the table and, stuff to comb...

For those of you that missed it. There's another mahjong title coming to the PS3 and Xbox 360 (although, the 360 version will more than likely be region locked). Mahjong Dream Club... Yep, play mahjong with the hostess girls from the Dream Club series... We'll let the pictures speak for themselves. ...

Personally, I didn't bid on it because, the photos look as though the screen might have been damaged. Darkening on the left side, a bit along the top, and in the upper-right corner. I sent an email to the seller about it and, never received a response. Since I already own one (sans battery cover) I ...

Okay, got the game in the mail today. Scans aren't that great but, they're readable. Pretty sparse manual, most of it is the standard "small print" stuff. I'll post the images of the two important chart pages. Also, I put the raw scans into a PDF and, the individual pages as jpg's, if you want to ch...

Tom, have you ever seen the original "Perfect Mahjong" by Bandai? I have the lifeless shell of one but, I've never been seen one in working condition (in person, at least). Would love to get a hold of one. GIDDY SCHOOLGIRL MOMENT: I run a small mahjong group in Portland, OR. When players new to mahj...

Nice to see a Yakuman on eBay. I actually have both that and, the Perfect Mahjong II from Bandai. I actually like the Yakuman over Bandai's, even though it came out about 4 or 5 years before it. Those old, non-back lit, LCD screens are hard enough to read and, Nintendo's is just easier to read. Band...

Ouch, on the YLOD. That happened to my "fatty" about four months ago. Since all of my saves were on the PSN+ cloud drive, it was no problem to transfer them to the new PS3. The only thing I lost was the music files I had saved on there but, none of it was pirated stuff so, I just need to get the CD'...
