That's just massively disappointing. Wow.
Well, this definitely ruined my day. Transforming Puyo Puyo into... Cranky Food Friends? Are you serious?
Puyo is a thing in Japan but not here.
Puyo isn't a thing here because Sega hasn't released the vast majority of Puyo games outside of Japan; the last one to come overseas (not counting VC releases of old games) was Puyo Pop Fever way back in 2005.
Someone in Japan is convinced that foreigners can't handle Puyo and I don't get it at all.
Believe me, I imported PPT for both PS3 and PS4. Love that game to death.Transforming Puyo Puyo derived mobile cash cow into... well another mobile cash cow.
If you really want Puyo Puyo there are plenty of great console/handheld releases and importing isn't hard.

it's typical japanese company stuff.
It should be pointed out that the original game isn't really much like Puyo Puyo at all. This is also the second western generic mobile game SEGA is putting out, the first being Puzzle & Glory (a Puzzles & Dragons clone): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-IkginKUOk
I mean, it's not like they had any alternative if there are licensing issues. The game is pretty boring IMO, for what is worth
Wow, that's dumb. Hasn't SEGA been doing poorly on mobile?

candy crush style
Licensing issues in the West.
For people that don't know, my avatar is a Puyo character, so expect lots of salt from me lol
There are no licensing issues with Puyo Puyo. The issue with Puyo Puyo Tetris is (probably) Ubisoft. This is happening because Sega doesn't want anyone from the West to see anything from this series. Hell, I'm surprised that the Sonic Runners tie-in was carried over.
Yeah, looks like I was thinking of sales overall. Mobile is the one area where they're succeeding.What? No! They're like the sixth biggest mobile publisher in Japan and possibly the world. They've got 5 titles that generate $20 million a month for them.
Curious, but why do you see SEGA of Japan not wanting their series released outside of Japan? I'm getting a similar vibe like that about the head of ARIKA too.

Why would anyone play that?Gritty reboot of Crying Breakfast Friends?
I agree, but to me, the current Puyo design is vastly inferior to the original one, with the Madou Monogatari cast.Same.
The design is utterly garbage.
The first GBA game (Pop, not Pop fever) has the original cast...The N-Gage game and presumably the arcade game (again, we don't know if that was them) are the only Puyo games published by Sega in the west with more than two of the original cast members.

Wow, sounds familiar:
so ass bad
why are western always so angry angsty
Wasn't it among their top grossing mobile games in Japan for a few years though?
