Yakuman DS


is a mahjong video game for the Nintendo DS produced by MediaKite and Nintendo, a successor to their 1989 Game Boy game Yakuman. It features the modern Japanese mahjong rules and various characters from the Mario video-game series.
The original version was released in Japan in March 2005 by Nintendo. In September of the following year they re-released the game with an online mode and the revised title. Both versions were released only in Japan and with predominantly Japanese text.
In Japanese mahjong the term yakuman can refer both to the rare high-scoring limit hands and to the largest score limit that can be applied to a winning hand under Japanese mahjong scoring rules.
