The answer is: it depends upon the cipher. You cannot design a S-box in isolation; the S-box properties need to be crafted together with the design of the block cipher, to make sure they work well together.

See also Desirable S-box properties. Don't forget to use "search" before asking questions.

The 3-Way cipher also uses 3x3 S-boxes.
