That's right, the world's most addictive puzzle game, Puyo Puyo, will be released in the United States! No more expensive imports or severely altered versions on long discontinued consoles for us!

Sega of America announced that it will be releasing Puyo Puyo in America for Game Boy Advance. Here's hoping that they don't do to it what they did the last time (Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine).

Puyo Puyo has been released in America before. The names and games were severely altered (for the worse) for American audiences. If you've played Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, Kirby's Avalanche, or Qwirks; you've played Puyo Puyo.

Actually, Puyo Puyo was released in America in its true form once. Puyo Pop for Neo Geo Pocket Color was an unaltered Puyo Puyo game, but it doesn't count. No one bought a Neo Geo Pocket Color, let alone Puyo Pop.

If I remember correctly I only ever played the game on my playstation and I go completely hooked. Of course the damn thing was in Japanese and I canna read a word of it.
