Puzzle League/ Panel de Pon is a fun, easy-to-understand puzzle game with a high skill ceiling and fast-paced yet occasionally tactical play. The way the blocks look and the sound the cursor makes are pleasing, but the anime art is cheap and aliased. As far as speed goes, Pokemon is a little on the fast side, but, thankfully, in intense moments, the Virtual Console might lag and give you an extra second to think. 3D Cylinder mode is fun and makes chains easier than ever. The sound pokemon make when they get chains ranges from grating to funny. Makes me wish I could play a Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart version of Puzzle League with endless, easy-to-implement custom characters. I don't think one version of Puzzle League is the "definitive version," and Ninty haven't made a new one in years, so, there's potential here.
