Crossposting for some acquaintances.

A holy grail of puyo puyo lost media is up for sale on mercari again, and people have now established contact with someone Japan who can dump this pachislot machine

This pachislot machine has a lot of art, animated cutscenes that aren't used in any other games, and a lot of assets that are unique to the game. It would be a big step in terms of game preservation.

If you can chip in to help them reach their goal of ~$470 USD you can do so at the GoFundMe linked in the Twxttxr post.

Random update:

So I work on the Puyo Nexus, helping out on articles and the sort. While working on the PuyoLympics episode, I took a small detour and decided to look at screenshots of other people playing Serilly's Happy Birthday.

Stumbled upon these.

A scan of Witch and concept art of Wish (Witch's grandmother,) from the Compile Club Underground Edition, given to people who subscribed to the original Compile Club. The Witch on the very left is a scan of the one from Tower of the Magician, and the rest is new.

And to those who follow me, an Extras Episode is being written still (It's about PuyoLympics. Arle's Travel Log needs more time due to footage issues,) don't worry. This is merely a post I wanna show y'all.

I don't know if Tumblr still doesn't play nice with links in posts, but I've recently created a Puyo server for people that are interested in editing the Puyo Nexus wiki!

This is a more structured space for people to discuss article research, game development history, and collaborate on long-term wiki projects.

DISCLAIMER: This server is NOT affiliated with the English Puyo Puyo Community Discord Server and is operated entirely through volunteer efforts.

Like a number of CD games during the 90′s, Puyo Puyo and Madou Monogatari games had some unique CD player warning messages.

The video above notes the following:

Puyo Puyo SUN (SEGA Saturn)

Madou Monogatari (SEGA Saturn)

Waku Waku Puyo Puyo Dungeon (SEGA Saturn)

Puyo Puyo~n (SEGA Dreamcast)

Notes

This is only counting all of the games on hand. This means I cannot verify that these are all of them, as I am missing certain games like Puyo Puyo Fever on the Dreamcast. However, I can confirm that the Playstation version of Puyo Puyo Tsu and Puyo Puyo Box don’t have one, while the SEGA Saturn version of Puyo Puyo Tsu and Puyo Puyo DA! use generic messages shared with several games.

In addition, there’s this rather hilarious one for Madou Monogatari I for the PC Engine CD where Arle and her teacher try to record a warning message, but they screw up between Arle fumbling on her message and Arle getting mad at being hit.

Look, a Madou Monogatari 1 patch for PC-98!!

The team working on this one shared it on twitter today, but twitter is currently... yeah, so I thought I'd spread the link!

A listing for Puyo Puyo! Pachislot has been found on Mercari!

An online listing for Puyo Puyo! Pachislot has recently been posted on Mercari. We’re currently looking into finding someone who would be able to hold onto this machine and help preserve the assets if bought. Please message this account if you are able to help with handling this!

Chico’s Diary (now complete!)

Chico’s Diary

This was a cute little feature from the old Puyo Puyo 4/ ~yon website from 1999. Each of the entries had an accompanying image, and they are now restored thanks to @klug​ . You have no idea how happy I am to see this thing in a mostly-complete form after roughly twenty years!

Update: 09/06/20- I found scans of the hardcopies via https://twitter.com/compileclub_bot/ so the images are definitely in the correct places! One of the ‘orphans’ should’ve been in entry 12.

PPPP Trivia:

The 4Koma Kings Puyo Puyo Fever 4koma manga, has the only official instance so far, where one of Lidelle’s hands is shown.

[puyopreservation]

PPPP Trivia:

Some supplementary material for Tsu, show a Draco design with smaller wings and shorter hair than her standard Compile design, as well as black pants.

It is possible this particular design was the basis for Draco’s current look.

[puyopreservation]

PPPP Trivia:

In Puyo Puyo Fever 2, Sig’s spirit was shown to have arms, making it a closer visual counterpart to the demon’s spirit in Klug’s book. This visual detail has been dropped in all future games.
