Lore-wise considering, Ringo Ando in future games would be so frightened when she walked into dungeons. She doesn't like ghostly creatures and only math problems could got her attentions
While the intro on the PC Engine is beautifully drawn and animated, In-game, the Megadrive's presentation is a lot more vibrant, and it also has some fantastic sounding FM music, so I'm going to go with that.
DEAR VCD ~ I really hope you are doing well because I know a small while back you was having a bit of depression over your channel. I just want you to know many channels talk and reference you for what you do and how flawless and meticulous you are over it... so keep going my friend. Id of loved this as a kid to answer my questions of different ports etc etc... Finally all these years later ~ thanx to you, i now can! ~ best wishes, from a veteran Sega Gamer of the day.
Since I already interested with Puyo Puyo. I want to play Madou Monogatari series as well but with a proper english localisation so it get a connection to Puyo Puyo's original lore. But it seems very unlikely since Compile was not around anymore for a long time & I don't know who held the right to the series with exception to its characters & Puyo Puyo gameplay that already sold to Sega.
Voices are super loud in the Mega Drive version! o_O maybe something with the emulation? Otherwise music is great, better than on PC Engine IMO and more consistent since on PC Engine the game alternates CD music with chip music which causes some jarring contrasts. Graphics look good in both but the Mega Drive has nicer in-game presentation, with Arle's portrait having a more elaborate perspective, and also more animations, like the blazing torches in the dungeon or the monsters which are more lively. Also I didn't play this game yet but from what I read, the Mega Drive version has some exclusive gameplay elements. If someone can confirm and even explain, that would be nice :) edit: apparently the gameplay on Mega Drive is based on button combinations in order to cast various magic spells. Sounds pretty cool.
+Matthias Forelli Did you play others versions like the ones on MSX or Game Gear? And if so, how the Mega Drive gameplay compares? I always loved the art style in these Compile games :)
PC Engine é uma baita maquina pra época que foi feito, mas eu não entendo como ele consegue exibir tantas cores na tela, mas peca na quantidade de pixeis e frame rate.
Percebi que existem muitos ports entre Pc-Engine e Mega Drive (a maioria pelo que notei), acho isso curioso, sabem se existiu alguma parceria ou algo do tipo? Embora algumas coisas me agradaram mais no Mega, a movimentação dentro da dungeon do PC-Engine é muito melhor que no Mega, parece que a movimentação do Mega perderia para Phantasy star do Master System.
Definitely the PC Engine version wins. Crisper graphics with more detail among other things. The MD version ain't bad, maybe a more interesting battle system.
I'm really confused, is the story really being told or are the adaptation of the MSX version? In the PCE for the animation without dialogues it seems that a prologue tells us that the protagonist was divided into a bad one and a good one and they met winning the good one, and there is no reference that it was a dream; If it looked very nice but I felt everything is very basic and even elongated prologue being able to make it shorter or cover much more of the background. In the case of MD, despite being a cartridge, it has a great design that, without the power of the CD, managed to tell a lot, but much more, in its prologue with dialogues, interactions between characters that even without knowing Japanese by the direction of images is understood much visually, as things: the premonitory dream, the insecurity of the expectations of friends, and even the girl with suspicion against the protagonist when moving stealthily in the background; All of these aspects, for more complex aspects of PCE kinematics, do not appreciate any of this if not something simpler. What is indisputable is the improvement of the version in the graphic interface of the MD version game.
Adoro a série puyo puyo, e sempre tive curiosidade de jogar esse jogo, o remix das músicas ficaram excelentes. Uma pena q a dungeon do PC engine ficou meio lavada, com cores desbotadas. Este jogo sem dúvida está na minha lista de compras pro mega drive
These are the ports of the first games Arle appeared in. The completely original game where Arle first appeared in was the PC-98 version in 1989, which is 2 yeas before the first Puyo Puyo games.
Com toda certeza ele olha que ele está competindo com o Pc Engine Cd. Sabemos que cd tem muita mais capacidade que cartuchos Principalmente em catcines E som . Mais o mega drive levou essa
Dungeon crawling fun!! Never heard this game until now! Pc Engine Cd has immersive cutsecnes, better resolution, more sounds and lighter colors than Mega drive. PC engine CD combat look like turn based! Mega drive has louder sound, darker colors, more animation (for example torch animation) and combat look action based system. Let´s say draw!
6:16 bruh Arle was so magical girly in PCE with two goofy ahh ribbons and shiny big eyes. I thought PCE should aim for more mature audience in Japan but they bishoijo-ed it more 6:45 but her battle sprite is abysmally creepy in low res. Her eyes ain't normal no more, looks like she is hynotized
Obvio que do PC Engine vai ser melhor, video game de CD, q possibilita imagens de maior qualidade e som melhor por causa do maior armazenamento. Mas vamos ser justo, tem coisa que no Mega é mais bem feito, por exemplo, no mapa, o teto e o chão tem textura, e a imagem da garotinha é maior, porem estático.
Muito bom um jogo para ser fazer uma ótima comparação seria Castlevania rondo of blood super Nintendo vs Pc engine e PSP versão remake e remaster do The Drácula x Chronicles vs Pc engine.
I've played both, and I prefer the PC engine CD version, the gameplay is less convoluted and I find the graphics and sound to be more pleasing to my eyes and ears respectively...
+Rodrigo Momo The Mega Drive is also from the 80s, PC Engine = 1987 while Mega Drive = 1988 ;) And the game here runs on stock Mega Drive hardware while the PC Engine version requires the Super CD-Rom add-on (which, btw, was released in 1991) + the Arcade Card. All of this actually makes the Mega Drive more impressive.
The colors on the MD version is grainy for the dungeon. The PCE version, while plain, has better colors. Overall the MD version is better because the battle scenes are more interesting (side view). I heard the MD version has more content. Really baffling, considering the PCE version is on CD. More like a cash grab version on the PCE.
Is it just me or in the pc engine cd arle's dressing just doesn't scream arle nadja I mean she looks like an obedient nice little girl but in the puyo games she is kinda rude so she isn't a nice obedient little girl she isn't even polite. play madou monogatari Big kindergarten kids or any English patched puyo game to prove my point.
WTF the thumbnail, Arle is not bleeding at this moment lol
I was wondering about that too.
I'd have left a "like" if it wasn't for that thumbnail :/ some explanations would be nice...
Parallax Craze I think it's just for the lol
Salut NMS Ça fais longtemps
That thumbnail is an edit. If someone wants to see blood, look up the pc98 version
I have to admit, the girl knows how to put a smile on that cute little face of hers through this dark and depressing dungeon!
There's an exception, when she has low health.
Her name is Arle ;3
@@autisticwoman665arle doesn't even have ptsd of the melting children for some reason, lmao
man i don't even remember replying this

Mega drive looks more descent

1:11 Arle on left is so adorable ^○^. Same goes to her design & PC Engine intro.
I wish Sega released a Puyo Puyo Legacy Collection like the Kunio Kun Collection did.
Mega drive rules! But I loved the anime intro in the PC Engine version too.

Well, the Mega Drive version got a fan translation recently.
@@IvAnEss_GZN and now both version.
@@とふこ Arcade original english localisation? No thanks, i'll wait for a re-translation
@@frannielmartinez
This is about Madou Monogatari, not Puyo. Puyo 1 still doesn't have a real English translation.
I wish that I want a proper Madou Monogatari anime tells the origins of good ol' Arle Nadia so badly.
Puyo Puyo is going 30 years old next year.
What I don't understand is Amitie and Ringo being integrated
Great video!
I'm gonna have to say the Mega Drive wins, although that PC Engine intro is awesome! D:
When Arle is Bleeding, Maybe It's Anti Piracy.
For Fred Fuchs’ Sake, Why Is Mega Drive Version So Loud?

Madou Monogatari I was the last official Mega Drive game released in Japan.
Yup, I already knew this, with Pepenga Pengo being the last first-party Mega Drive game to be released in Japan :)
psyance Yup, the gameplay is pretty cool on the MD. I haven't played the PC Engine version though lol.
+Matthias Forelli
Did you play others versions like the ones on MSX or Game Gear? And if so, how the Mega Drive gameplay compares?
I always loved the art style in these Compile games :)
psyance Nope. Haven't picked up those systems yet. The next thing on my list is a PC Engine CD-ROM unit.
PC Engine é uma baita maquina pra época que foi feito, mas eu não entendo como ele consegue exibir tantas cores na tela, mas peca na quantidade de pixeis e frame rate.

Love the Mega Drive
The left image in thumbnail looks funni.
By the way, Arle doesn't get stabbed as shown in the thumbnail. The guy who uploaded this video lied to you all.
Damn it! I only clicked on this video to see that!
I can't trust anyone
It's a girl, but yeah, they do tend to alter their videos to make one side look better than the other, other people in the past have mentioned this.
Definitely the PC Engine version wins. Crisper graphics with more detail among other things. The MD version ain't bad, maybe a more interesting battle system.
Intro - PC Engine CD.
Gameplay- Mega Drive.

mas que jogos lindinhos nas duas plataformas!!!!!!!!!
las dos versiones se ven muy bien, me sorprende el uso de la paleta de colores en pc engine
The Mega Drive's castle theme at 1:34 reminds me of Irreversible's The Rectum theme.
Definitely PC Engine CD-ROM.
How can i switch between the sounds?I only ever hear one audio version?
Adoro a série puyo puyo, e sempre tive curiosidade de jogar esse jogo, o remix das músicas ficaram excelentes. Uma pena q a dungeon do PC engine ficou meio lavada, com cores desbotadas. Este jogo sem dúvida está na minha lista de compras pro mega drive
Damn, Arle was quite the badass in the PCE version's intro.
Mega Drive melhor, 👍✌️!!!...
since when was Arle bleeding?
it’s an edit for more clicks
Isn't this the first game to have Arle from Puyo Puyo in?
These are the ports of the first games Arle appeared in. The completely original game where Arle first appeared in was the PC-98 version in 1989, which is 2 yeas before the first Puyo Puyo games.
*Arle from Puyo Puyo*
More like Arle from Madou Monogatari!
Correction: Arle's first appearance was in the MSX2 version in 1989.
PC-98 version was 1991.
Mega Drive é melhor.
Com toda certeza ele olha que ele está competindo com o Pc Engine Cd. Sabemos que cd tem muita mais capacidade que cartuchos

Apparently, the magic spells in the Mega Drive release are a command while holding the A button since it has a more action-based nature

6:45 but her battle sprite is abysmally creepy in low res. Her eyes ain't normal no more, looks like she is hynotized
Well, i love this game, never played the PCE CD, but, this is a tie?.

A única coisa que a versão do Pc Engine Cd leva são nas catcines
Pelo fato de ser cd.
Trilha sonora gostei de ambas .

Caramba, o PC Engine com tecnologias dos anos 80 tendo 1996 um jogo digno da primeira safra dos 32-bits! Impressionante!

Jogo de quem da o buraco corrugado

Pc engine no contest. The resolution is so much better on pc engine as well. It's terrible on megadrive.
Child abuse

Is my point valid...
puyo puyo
1996? Such a late game release! Kinda ok for Sega,tought PC Engine was dead by that time!
Siegfried39ify pretty much they released on pc engine the part II and III...is weird to see part I on pc engine"cd" in 1996
Siegfried39ify This was the last ever Japanese release in the Genesis
Yeah. Even with the 2MB arcade card it was not competing...
statiz23 the 2nd and 3rd parts came out on Game Gear, but not on other consoles
Very intresting,thanks for replys!
Mega Drive wins because that has a translation. PCE never will
Yeah. Playing the translation right now lol.
the PC-Engine version recently got a translation surprisingly
@@xd-ym9qv Yeah, from the same guys who did the megadrive translation
The entire series over various consoles got fan translations, so OP, you are quite wrong.
@@Bloodreign1 😂 I posted that before the PC Engine version got a translation. Aged like milk.
PCE slightly wins
