An article comparing two games based off of Super Puyo Puyo: Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine and Kirby's Avalanche. A look at the differences between them, and a very humourous video of the Kirby version.

Puyo Pop (also known as Puyo Puyo), a Japanese puzzle game, was on its way to the shores named after Amerigo Vespucci. But under two peculiar disguises: Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine and Kirby’s Avalanche (In Europe, Kirby’s Ghost Trap). Both games are basically Puyo Pop (specifically, Super Puyo Puyo), but delivered to an American audience of the early-90s not quite ready for hyper squealing anime girls.

    Wow I had no idea Kirby's Avalanche was based off another game--and then it's even pretty much identical with the jelly blobs and such!

    Man I loved that game!

    I had Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine for the Genesis. Was a fun game. I hadn't ever thought about it being based off of another game....with most things identical.
