I never got a chance to play Puyo Puyo Tetris 1 out of my own laziness and forgetfulness, because games get buried in the switch eshop if I don't wishlist them. So when a sequel came out and I happened to be in a Tetris mood I bought it when it was new and visible on the eshop. Also this is my first Puyo game since literally Mean Bean Machine, so bear with me for potentially being a complete dipshit.

I can't help but think Tetris has a massive advantage over Puyo, which I believe was a big complaint about the first one so it kinda sucks they didn't really address it (but I guess you can't really). I don't really mind much though, because I mainly play this game for single player anyway (I suck at competitive puyo). Luckily there's a shit ton of modes and the voice lines from all the characters are really cute. Draco melts my heart any time she roars and Harpy never fails to crack me up.

I think what really knocked me on my ass though was finding out this game has cheat codes, granted it's mainly for unlocking everything but it still completely shocked me. I thought that shit went the way of the dinosaurs thanks to always online bullshit and microtransactions. Good on ya Sega, if only Smash Bros Ultimate gave me that option.

So that settles it, Puyo > Smash. Case closed.
