Super Puyo Puyo 2 (SNES) Translated Playthrough - NintendoComplete

- A playthrough of Compile's 1995 puzzle game for the Super Famicom, Super Puyo Puyo 2.
Played through on the normal difficulty mode. I first play the easy mode, and that is followed by the normal mode. Both modes' playthroughs show their secret final bosses and endings.
Unlike the version that is now available through Nintendo's online SNES service on Switch, the game I'm playing here is in English. It has been patched thanks to a fan hack. If you'd like to find out more about that, check it out here: www.romhacking...
The Puyo Puyo series has been around since the days of the NES, and it's still alive, healthily kicking today. The games haven't always been known as Puyo Puyo in the west, though. Super Puyo Puyo 2 is a sequel to the game that in the western world was reskinned and released as Kirby's Avalanche (NTSC)/Kirby's Ghost Trap (PAL) on the SNES and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine on the Genesis.
Convoluted series history aside, the premise of the Puyo games, like all classic puzzlers, is a simple one: match three like pieces, get combos, and bury your opponent. The core mechanics have remained largely the same over the decades, with meaningful balance tweaks and features added to each new edition, and they're all still brilliantly playable.
Super Puyo Pop 2 is like Tetris or Dr. Mario in that it is accessible to everyone, but there is a ton of depth to the gameplay that really only becomes visible once you've played for awhile. Huge combos can be formed that can wipe out an opponent in one fell swoop, but the constant volleys of garbage puyo and an ever-increasing drop speed ensure that there's no such thing as a sure win. It keeps you on your toes.
The game looks and sounds great for a 16-bit title, and the series' signature sense of cute humor is here in full force. The playfields are filled with bright colors and objects being flung everywhere, the characters are as odd and diverse as you could hope for, and there is a ton of digitized speech given that this was on a cartridge. It feels surprisingly modern for a game that is 24 years old this year.
If you subscribe to the Switch's online service, do yourself a favor a give this one a spin. It's excellent.

Really fun game, even if I'm not great at it.
Clearing Easy mode is the best way to say "Not today, Satan!"
Nah, *_REAL_* men play fight Satan on "Hardest" difficulty.
Nah, REAL CHADS fight masked satan in floor 1
seriously pre-Sega era of Compile Puyos are much more humorous. I tried the new release on Apple Arcade with 3D character assets and still found pixelated ones to be more attractive. But however English dub of modern Puyo games try very hard to make nearly all the cast sound young, not like Arle in some old entries had those funny deep auntie voices
Nobody's talking here about Nohoho swearing? I *swear* somebody should've mentioned that already
“A heard of fuckin’ ugly reds. Are rushing from the mainland” -Hong Kong 97
*OH, SHIT*
Why didn’t they translate this game on SNES Online!?
Ya I saw it and the nerd has to look at this game and react to it
@@jaydenlee4079 I know right? Nintendo just dumped it on there untranslated like their own game Panel de Pon. It's not like SEGA had licensing issues to use Tetris.
Thank you so much for posting this. There's a lot for me to take in here...the Act on AIDs thing was surprising! I had absolutely no idea that Dr. Robotic's Mean Bean Machine was an EXACT clone. I figured they took it from something and changed a few things, but they honestly didn't change much! I feel so duped, haha, I really do appreciate you doing this one.
Np! This is actually the sequel. Kirbys Avalance and Mean Bean Machine were both heavily altered versions of the original Super Puyo Puyo. They're all great games though :)
@@NintendoComplete Haha, that's crazy, I'll have to check them both out for sure!
@Like New Maidservice it came from the original puyo puyo tho, its the final stage on that game
Both Mean Bean Machine and Kirby’s Avalanche were helped with by Compile
@@EpicGamer_SansheeFreddy thats because theyre altered versions of the original puyo puyo, like was said in the first reply
It's amazing how modern this fantastic puzzler still feels despite being nearly 25 years old. Well worth checking out if you subscribe to the Switch online service!
Tetris style games are always going to feel modern in a sense because they don't really have much that technology can improve. The presentation is strong though.
This game really does age well after 27 years.
Don't need a Switch for this game, I already own 8 versions of it haha.
Puyo Puyo 2 is essentially the Smash Bros. Melee of the series.
Almost every competition is based on this iteration or Fever.
Protip: Buy Puyo Puyo Champions to start getting good.
@@Dorian_Scott It’s perfect for me, no doubts, I can play this with any controller, and i’m not that good at Puyo Puyo anyway, so I can confirm these are all very true
so thaaat's why all of them are pissed at arle, hadnt known since i only had the switch version
A great follow up to the first game.
Why do you say the level up system adds replayability??? It's just an arcade mode essentially and even if you don't beat every opponent, you are pretty likely to play against them all the first time. And they don't have different AI's it would seem, the AI seems to adapt to the amount of EXP you have so that could have been improved by having unique AI.
@@sigurdtheblue Good Question. Allow me to edit my review by removing that point.
@@sigurdtheblue They do have unique AIs. For example Nohoho stacks in the three rightmost columns, Harpy stacks in the single left and rightmost columns, and there are many others. It doesn't change relative to exp, but failing to get the rerquired exp to level up before beating all enemies unlocks a secret battle against another characer, different for each floor.

Fun fact! Sukiya Podes is based on a mythical race called the Sciapod by the Greeks. They each possessed one large foot big enough to use as a sun-shade and lived in Lybia.
I know what I am 😊
do not laugh at my foot
Funny why they dumped this raw untranslated Rom onto the Snes online service rather than giving us this version or the already in English Americanized Kirby's Avalanche.
Yeah, I don't get it either. It doesn't make sense to me at all.
@Lobster Scrappy Doo Nintendo kinda got lazy with this one. They seriously just should've given us Tetris Attack instead if they didn't want to give us a translated Puyo game.
@Witch Well good on you then. Funny why a Puyo game was included in the 1st pla've considering the Puyo games are more of a Sega thing here in the US anyway.
@Hollow Tim So people can understand it.
Knowing Nintendo, it may actually be because Nohoho swears once in his dialogue. They didn’t think that’d fly here so they decided not to let us read it instead of just editing the dialogue.
Oh, that's how you play it. I tried it out of curiosity on the switch and was quite baffled how I could still lose after clearing my side almost completely.
Yeah took me a few rounds to figure it out
Little tip:
Making a 1-Puyo Chain after clearing your side completely of Puyos (Yes, Garbage Puyos count, too) and the Japanese Text is still there is a *must do*
The reason why puyopuyo is both so fun as well as hard is the same for most people raised on Tetris. It lures you in without really explaining combos are greater than a clear board
9:23 “Oh SHIT!”
"I would watch your mouth..."
Waddup
If it had an official translation, it'd likely be "Oh CRUD!" or something.
34:44 You thought it was Carbuncle, but it was me, Shezo, the whole time!
Who's That Pokemon?
who are you calling a creeper
I find it funny that Satan has a crush on her. Plus the skeleton enemy in this game looks cute😍
These games are all always cute, nuff said.
@@Dorian_Scott Cute, funny and puts a smile on our faces
@@biancaarmstrong5097 The weird thing is that the original games this series was based on (Madou Monogatari) - at least the PC-98 ports - were really violent and kinda disturbing, with realistic graphics for the characters/monsters and graphic descriptions of what's going on. Good thing that they altered them for the console releases IMO, so that Puyo Puyo could happen!
@@mariusamber3237 Wow, I already wanted to check out the origin games and this makes it a lot more interesting.
No joke I have be playing this game in Japanese this whole time.
Top score:
1 player 18 594 pts in 416 blocks
Endless 108 382 pts in 558 blocks
I think I'm just too old to get good at this. I can't even clear the "easy" mode. I used up all my skill points speccing Tetris as a kid.
The easy mode tends to be harder than normal mode
Loving the characters in these games! Hopefully all Madou Monogatari games get translated as well soon enough. Was hoping they'd use the same theme for the battle with Satan as they did in Madou Monogatari 2/Puyo Puyo 1, but eh, it's not bad either. :D
I know that some other ones have been. Have you checked out romhacking.net ? It's a great resource.
@@NintendoComplete Oh yeah, I do check it regularly, since the community is quite active, with tons of new translations coming out each year. Good stuff! There's some fun fan-translated action games and platformers out there. :)
I have to keep reminding myself that Puyo Puyo is a spin-off of that series
I like how even with the subtitles it makes no sense but I love that it is just a fun game and dies not try hard to be taken seriously. Also I feel bad for satan he can live with me
I can't believe Nohoho swore on my christian Minecraft server.
Lmao you misspeled his name
I thought Arle had a closet full of the same outfit, but she actually does wear the same thing all year round
I don't know if I should be amazed, or intimidated
23:17 perfectly synced
34:49 my man schezo learns choreography on the tower with this one🗣🗣🗣🗣
17:31 the cutest minor character while trying hard to crawl out of the tomato. Why did it only deserve a mobile game appearance instead of being in the roaster of the mainly fighted ones. It's got proper voice acting i mean.
9:23 what he dropped the s bomb? the frog is actually allergic to Curry in Puyo 3. What a weird ass merchant
12:09 what a weird corrupted font
7:39 this freakin zombie beats half of the pvz zombies crew imo, he rocks! he should team up with the Olympic zombie and that moonwalking one
There’s an ending where you get kicked out if you try to not level up- defeat every opponent on a floor, including the secret opponent on a floor.
Can we just point out the fact that Schezo’s AI in this game is like the worst thing ever? You can usually beat him easily in like 30s.
I did 21
Schezo's not actually the brightest crayon in the box in these games, Mr Pervert being bad at stacking and making combos fits him to a T.
Level 2 has the kind of sick 90s beat you'd hear on an NWA album.
Let me fix the dialogue in the cutscene that started at 8:59.
Nohoho: [laughing, wearing a hat and sunglasses] As usual, you're right on time. That's a *REALLY* good disguise; even *I* didn't know it was you.
Arle: [internally] What is going on here?
Nohoho: [externally] Here's the curry rice as promised. Count it, if you like.
[8 curry rice plates slip out of Nohoho's briefcase.]
Arle: I know you, right?
Nohoho: What? You're not Muhoho?
Arle: Nope! My name is Arle.
Nohoho: [startled, screaming, and falling backwards] *Oh, crap!* I thought something was strange. You didn't seem like a frog, did you?
Arle: Did you think a frog could imitate me?
Nohoho: I guess that IS true, Arle. Since you've seen what goes on here, I have no choice but to dispose of you. Let's settle this in a game of Puyo Puyo!
9:22 What Were They Thinking? Nohoho Just Said The S-Word And The Came Out In 1995. That’s The Same Year Hong Kong 97 Came Out And Hong Kong 97 Was Made For The Same Game System As Super Puyo Puyo 2
Japan is less worried about their children hearing swear words than the goody two shoe moms here in the US.
19:54 JESUS CHRIST, CARBUNCLE
Damn this plot is deep
Lmao
Puyo puyo games in a nutshell
I have a Nintendo Switch and I am an active member of Nintendo Switch Online. This game is included in the Super Nintendo Entertainment System - NSO app and SEGA was credited as the publisher, since they currently own the rights to the Puyo Puyo franchise.
8:08 "What the f*ck are you cooking- OHHHHHHHH!!! Ohhhhhhhhhhhh. Nice one"
Arle for Smash!!!
the game that changed the way puyopuyo is.
Epick.
敵キャラクターたちの戦術に個性があるのがおもしろい！！
やってる時は気が付かなかった
I have a serious question...
Who has the original joy cons that are NOT broken...?
Thank you for uploading this. I recently played it on my switch, but unfortunately it wasn’t translated, so I wanted to know what the characters were saying.
Very fun game. I think I played for at least 4 hours straight to get the good ending.
9:23 BAD LANGUAGE ALERT!!!!
Fuck, I didn't notice
I remember playing Sonic Mega Collection Plus on PS2 and doing Dr Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine. I had no idea it was inspired by Puyo Puyo at that time.
I have Puyo Pop x Tetris on the Switch and it’s nice but the Puyo parts are a pain in the neck for me. I prefer the Tetris part.
Well done course, NC.
mean bean is a reskin
it was changed because the subject was "too japanese" at the time (remember when that used to be a thing?) to something more appealing to western audiences like with panel de pon having characters from yoshis island
this version was reskined to have kirby characters
krystalfan ah OK. Thanks for the information.
I had NO IDEA this existed until right now. I grew up playing Mean Bean Machine like CRAZY!
Also, hey Lucie!
@@CarnageCounts Me too! I even play it via _Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection_ on Xbox 360. Brings back so many memories.🙂
@@Dorian_Scott I bought the Genesis collection thingy on the PS4 very recently with Mean Bean Machine in mind!
Zombie was just vibin
39:45 Satan SIMP.
It doesn't matter how good my combos are the goddamn trio of kids keeps kicking my shit in.
Have you considered building a longer chain?
It's really a shame that Nintendo was too lazy to even translate this like the fans do. It seems so simple.
@Kirby lover What's your point there? Nintendo changes dialogue like that all the time in translation. Lazyyyy!
Not Nintendo's place to translate, this was originally from Compile, before Sega bought the IP, so it would be Sega's place to do so.
Good job. Subbed.
Thanks!
this finna sound awful out of context but -- i love satan so much
Lmao
Everytime i face the banshee trio they 19 chain in the first 10 milliseconds
I'm curious to know why they didn't get Sega (or Compile) to translate this for the SNES online??
To me this tells me 2 things with the second one being a stretch,
*They are trying to get non-Japanese audiences to play the original puyo puyo series to build a fanbase after the (I'm assuming) success of Puyo Puyo Tetris
*Nintendo is maybe hiting Arle's inclusion in smash if she does make it in as a DLC Fighter
Because Puyo Puyo is getting a growing western fanbase nowadays!
Wouldn't it be the other way around? If they aren't even translating the game, maybe they don't care about it and aren't going to include arle in smash
@@jestfullgremblim8002 well I definitely don't think she'll be in smash anytime soon
They changed the characters they think it would be too Japanese for westerners. The SNES version are rebranded to Kirby avalanche, the Sega version is "dr robotnik's mean bean machine"
I don't know why they think it would be a bad idea to release in the original form but that happened.
i played dr.robotniks m.b.m. before i heard of this , just randomly stumbled on this game with the snes online and was lime hey thats familiar
Thank goodness for this exsisting, other wise i would be completely confused as the what is even going on.
What's going on at 8:04? You just dropped them all on the left without even spinning one..
Do the puyos always come out in the same order?
i know it's been like 9 months but i think it's a strat, if you look at the opponent's gameplay you can see some of the higher level ones going for this strategy.
i believe it leaves puyos open for when the opponent pops their own puyos and sends them over. not Sure tho
9:23
33:59 seeing draco rotating puyo pairs is so cursed to me
Own this game in 8 formats (Gameboy, MD, SFC original and Remix, PS1 stand alone version, PS1 via Puyo Puyo Box, Saturn, and PS2), all are damned good versions. On the SFC side, I still prefer the Remix version myself.
Is there a english version for PS2??? Wooww
@@jaderanderson Sadly no, it was a Japan only release, part of the Sega Ages releases on the PS2, one of the ones that weren't put into 3D. Instead it's the PS1 version with a Nazo Mode, choice of arranged or original arcade music, and much higher resolution 2D spritework. Looks very, very good too.
2:37 EASY MODE
13:26 NORMAL MODE
39:39 TRUE ENDING
THE ONLY WAY TO FIGHT MASKED SATAN (OR DARK PRINCE) BEAT THE GAME WITHOUT CONTINUES AND SCORE 230,000 POINTS BEFORE THE FINAL STAGE AND YOU GET THE TRUE ENDING
Did you use a bot or is this game actually beatable?😅
No way, it's all legit. Just takes some practice :)
@@NintendoComplete yeah, I figured I was just bad at the game after I completed stage 2 on easy lmfao,when I commented this I was stuck there,now I know its as if dark souls and tetris had a baby,this would be it😅
Lmao, it isn't that hard!! Have you played puyo puyo champions? It is online so you must be really good to play... i personally can pull off some good chains
How come I’m stuck on the zombie in EASY mode like EASY
I notice the "スーパー " is written in hiragana.
How did you get to fight Nohoho in the beginner levels?
He is the fourth opponent in easy mode.
You can only fight him in Easy Mode without using a continue.
Why did they add swears in the game for snes
Japan don't really care and they didn't localized this game to the us until switch online.
@@NataliasClips localised? More like they gave us the game and couldn’t even be bothered to translate it
@@idontthinktheysawthatcomin6792 sorry this comment is cringy and old
@@NataliasClips 3DS got it first, in one of those Sega Ages compilations, the first time it showed up in the western part of the world.
@@Bloodreign1 thank you
I see, draco is best girl as always
Before sega bought the rights to puyo puyo
Except for ecolo, ally, rafisol, ex, ess, marle and squares the rest of characters seem kinda lame in new games
38:45 How is this game even playable at this point
Can someone explain the rules to me? I'm matching off so many blobs it's ridiculous and I'm STILL losing!! I can't get past those trio babies
I'm playing on Nintendo Switch which means it's entirely in Japanese, so I don't know what I'm doing wrong
As it says in the attract loop at the start, you need to make chain reactions in order to do more damage.
20 Puyos popped separately in groups of 4 do only 5 damage.
20 Puyos popped in a 5-chain does at least 69 damage, which is almost certain death, as a playfield is 72 blocks.
9:23 LANGUAGES, MUHOHO!
I can never beat the Banshee Trio
What was Parara meant to say?
Shit, this is a fucking funny translation.
40:33 Does that say Congratulations
Nope. It's Satan screaming: KAAAAA-KUUUUUN! ("Carbunny" in Japanese)
3:03 Sr pelo moment
I tried Super Puyo Puyo 2 on Switch and I liked it!
Does somebody know the CPU's strategy in this game? That way I can figure out what the fuck they're doing!
Anyone else here despise Arle with a passion?
Nah, she's sassy, but she's alright.
Oh hello Kirby’s avalanche
That was a reskin of the first game, not this one.
Kirby’s Avalanche is an adaptation of the prequel to this game, which adds the much needed game mechanic of Offsetting, which lets you reduce or deflect damage pencing on your playfield.
Which one was Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine?
What do you mean?
@@jestfullgremblim8002 Which Puyo Puyo game was reskinned as Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine?
@@millgiass Puyo Puyo 1 is what was reskinned (and also to Kirby Avalanche too)
Most Sega Game Except for Japan Onlys are in English Dub
Puyo Puyo Tsu isn’t a Sega game.
Is this an official English translation?
No. It's a fan translation by Puyo Nexus.
Sean Kelly's No Fear Racing (USA)
Reys Derak's No Fear Racing (USA)
swear word at 9:24
Is this some kind of japanese clone or (as it really it looks like) a reskin of Kirby's Avalanche?
Nah, kirby's avalanche is reskin of puyo puyo
This is the sequel to the original Puyo Puyo, which was reskinned into Kirby's Avalanche. This second game did not come to the US at all till the 3DS on Sega Ages. It is no clone at all.
Wait!puyo Puyo isn't a sega frachise?
Sega bought the rights to the series in the late 90s. It was Compile's before that.
@@NintendoComplete ooooh ok.....
@@NintendoComplete Later Someone Resurrected Complie under the name Complie Heart(Minus the Puyo Puyo Brand)
Well, it is now! Sega used to be Compile’s publisher at one point. When Compile went bankrupt, the IP rights to Puyo Puyo went to Sega.
