The grand rally mode! And still, not all possible characters were shown here; the characters chosen in these are completely random. Those random lag jumps! Darn those 2 losses!
I think at the end of Puyo Puyo~n, Doppelganger Arle turned good. We see her at the end of Puyo Puyo~n on top of one of the circus tents looking at the mask she wore to turn into Pierrot. She probably appeared in this game to test pre-Puyo Puyo~n Arle to see if she was as good as the Arle in Puyo Puyo~n was.
Late reply, new account.. Well, at least Arle eventually got a fully fleshed-out portrait sprite sheet styled after her Puyo Tsu portrait. Apparently, that _isn't_ the Arle that _you_ play as though; that's Puyo Puyo~n Arle. You play as pre-Puyo~n/Madou Monogatari Saturn Arle, the one you see in Puyo Puyo SUN and all Puyo/Madou games before that.
The emulator, or hardware and video capture device or built in emulator recorder don't always cooperate with one another, and this happens. I own a copy of Puyo Puyo Box, the game runs as smooth as silk.
BlagomirDao Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine was only on the Genesis, and Puyo Puyo BOX was only on the PlayStation. There's also a Game Gear/Master System version, but that was only an 8-bit game, so if you want to enjoy Mean Bean Machine at its top system, then it's the Genesis, but if you really want to play its roots, then use an emulator or own the actual copy and a Japanese Mega Drive.
HeroSteve6070 yes, that's what I mean. On MegaDrive there is PuyoPuyo and PuyoPuyo Tsu (also known as PuyoPuyo 2). Also I recommend a simular game on SNES - Mahou Poi Poi Poitto!
