Correct. I just bought it for that amount.
I dunno, they put a lot of work into this, £30 is a very fair price imo.
Yep, it's highly replayable, always going to be on the system like Lumines for me.
Definitely worth it. It's a lot of fun.

Mail came already, not part of it. Damn, here I am anxiously waiting for it. Amazon still says out for delivery.

I'm so excited about the game that for a second I even contemplated buying it digital on my Switch even though I ordered a physical copy on Amazon. Luckily, reason prevailed in the end.
But it's going to be a long wait

Buy the physical version for Switch or PS4
as others are saying, buy the physical copy.. unfortunately no. the web eshop requires you to login at least once from a switch to be able to purchase from the web shop.
Thanks! But I prefer my games neat and tidy in one account. I don't have a logic reason for this, but it feels better.

Just got my physical copy. Shame I won't really be able to put much time into it until after work.

So switch the region of your account and buy it then switch back?
That's not worth the extra price
Buy eshop card?

It won't. You can buy eshop cards for it. (Check a page or 2 back i put a link to where i brought mine.)
the best buy i picked mine up from had 2 more copies on the shelf. 3 (including mine) were behind the counter preorders.

Anyone else having trouble with the Canadian eShop? It keeps asking me to 'verify my information'.

Just bought on Switch eshop! Looks great.
The early delivery gods have been very kind to me today!
Been looking forward to this a lot, although I am a bit narked at the huge discrepancy in price been the PS4, Switch and the Switch US prices. Don't even get the keychains here (UK) as an excuse for the difference.
Given that you can't even order the physical on Amazon any more, I wonder if this is going to turn into one of those hard-to-get items in the future?

Can you do marathon mode with 4 players?
I reckon Tetris has an advantage with speed but once you start a chain with puyo (if you are allowed to get far enough) you send a shitload of crap compared to when you tetris I feel. I still feel like tetris has an advantage but I'm pretty biased and new to this.
Though you don't always get an 'l' block when you want it but at least attacks just raise your blocks up from the bottom.
When you send a few blocks over to puyo's side they come from the top and that can mess things up quite a bit so neither side wants to let things build up too much.
It's really fun. Though I'm still trying to see how balanced it is for puyo puyo, or if I'm just too new to it. I can tell I'm getting better though but it's more about planning for me at this stage. I wonder if it will become like visually stacking the colours once I get better.
Plus you can adjust the handicap and make it a bit harder on yourself or easier for others including the cpu, which would make it funner if you're finding yourself destroy everything.
And there are tonnes of modes.
The music is pretty great too. I swear I heard pokemon-like music in one of them, and I'm playing the Vita version.
I actually never realised how many till I started watching some translated footage with Giant Bomb's QL the other day and have been playing it a lot more since.
I noticed that on the GB video. It sounded so bad lol. I listen to it for a few seconds with the Japanese version and it's a lot more anime and it helps that I have no idea what they're saying, but I just skip those anyway.

Tetrises are now surpassed by the much easier and cheaper T-spins. And comboing is another ridiculous damage dealer. The latter feels super satisfying especially in sudden death situations. =D

Anyone have any thoughts on their ideal control scheme? I noticed there are different control settings.
I have had some trouble in the demo with the Pro D-pad (both the positioning of the D-pad as I'm used to PS4 and the actual buttons themselves). I was wondering if there were any alternative ideas. Of course, the joycon grip with the directional buttons is a good option too.

Picked mine up about an hour ago from a Target. Double shrink wrapped (outer box & game case). Box had a bit of a crease but I'm not going to be a stickler about it. Not a whole lot of copies. I think it was 3 including mine and a single PS4 copy.
Are the stickers a Target exclusive? Mine only came with the keychains.

On the Switch demo I was able to turn on "hard drop" for Puyo but cannot seem to find the option to turn it on now that I have the game. Any help finding this option? Thank you!
Yes. The sticker set is Target exclusive. It came in the box with everything else.
They have a decent amount of weight to them.
Hah, my box had the same paper in it. That pack of key-chains is surprisingly heavy, so I guess they didn't want it flopping around the box the whole time and scrap paper was cheaper than bubble wrap.
Would have been $10 more without the keychains; hence free.
Seems like you have it figured out!
Just purchased and downloaded the game, thanks to the fantastic demo converting a non-puzzle fan like me. Won't be able to dig in until tonight, though.
I have put in like three or four hours on the demo, but I still don't understand some fundamental mechanics. Like what determines how much garbage you throw at your opponent? And in matches with more than two players, where does your garbage go?
