About Dragon's Eye Plus: Shanghai III
Dragon's Eye Plus: Shanghai III (ドラゴンズアイ プラス 上海III) is a 1991 game by Home Data for the Sega Mega Drive released exclusively in Japan. It is a member of Activision's Shanghai series of mahjong solitaire games — to be precise, it is a port of the Japanese version of what the Western market got as Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye; the numbering discrepancy was because of a Japanese Shanghai II that had already been made. Activision were not happy with this version of the game, and instead produced their own Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye for the Western market.

A Japan-only Home Data cart that is among the cheapest in its group.
Dragon's Eye Plus: Shanghai III is a Mega Drive game from Home Data, released in Japan on 2 November 1991.
Before you buy
This is a Japanese Mega Drive cartridge. Its shape differs from a Western cart, so it needs an adapter or two plastic tabs removed from a Western console's slot. Among Japan-only carts it is one of the cheapest, so there is little to be gained from paying extra for any listing.
