Puyo Puyo/Bugs
From Sega Retro
- Back to: Puyo Puyo.
System C2 and Mega Drive versions
Prevent the CPU from dropping Puyos quickly
In Single Puyo Puyo mode, if either or are held on the second joystick/Control Pad during gameplay, the CPU will be unable to drop their Puyos quickly as long as the directions are held. With this in mind, the player can exploit this to hinder the CPU on earlier stages where the normal drop speed is slower.
If player 2 is the human player in Single Puyo Puyo mode, holding or on the first joystick/Control Pad achieves the same effect.
The Mega Drive version is a fork of the earlier System C2 version and so has the same bug. It also exists in Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine.
Fixed in Rev. B of the System C2 version and Sega Ages Puyo Puyo.
