Online play

Is the online play specific to regions in this? E.g. Japan only for Japanese IP addresses, UK only for UK IP addresses, etc.

 

I only ask as I never see any servers listed in the lobby, yet I can see the rankings of all the other players.

Back in 2013 I wrote a full guide and noted then that "online play is free and works worldwide (although it's almost dead now)".

I used to play Janline-R online on the PS3 but that was a decade ago now.

 

I'd assume that the dominant platforms for mahjong players in Japan these days would be phones/tablets and the Nintendo Switch (also great for commuters), maybe Tenhou and Ron2 on computer at home and MFC or MJ in the arcades (if they were open atm). Sony's home consoles have really declined here - barely a half-dozen mahjong titles each for the PS3 and PS4 (not counting the Yakuza series with its mahjong minigame of course). Nothing new for the PS5 that I've noticed, compared to at least ten games for the Switch already (not even counting all the adult Sega Saturn remakes).
