Tribes in Oklahoma are still offering customers a game considered illegal in the state, The Daily Oklahoman reports.

The National Indian Gaming Commission ruled MegaNanza illegal without a state-tribal compact. Some tribes, such as the Chickasaw Nation, have converted to a new game.

The paper says others still have MegaNanza in play but does not cite specific tribes. Multimedia Games, the makers of the machine, says it will offer those tribes a replacement game.
