Double Yakuman Jr on Game Boy is one of those classic mahjong ports that just nails the feel of the real thing. The second you boot it up, you're hit with that satisfying clack of tiles and a clean, no-nonsense interface—none of the flashy distractions some later versions added.

It’s got that perfect balance where beginners can ease in (the rules are explained without being overwhelming), but there’s enough depth to keep veterans grinding for those rare Yakuman hands. I remember my first time pulling one off—total accident, but the little victory jingle hooked me for good.

Best part? It’s pure mahjong. No gimmicks, no story mode, just you versus the AI or a friend via link cable. The AI’s decent—not too ruthless early on, but it’ll wipe the floor with you if you get careless. Perfect for quick sessions or those "just one more round" marathon plays.

If you’ve got a Game Boy and even a passing interest in mahjong, this one’s a no-brainer.
