S2's Puyo Puyo Tutorials

Puyo Puyo eSports Menu Translation (Nintendo Switch)

Title Screen


You can immediately start a FT2 Puyo match against the CPU by pressing the buttons on the side.
  • Single Puyo Puyo: Play Tsu and Fever matches against the CPU. Puyo Puyo eSports doesn't have true single player modes, unfortunately.
  • Everybody Puyo Puyo: Play matches with your friends locally. The Nintendo Switch supports multiplayer on the same switch (マルチ) or multiplayer using local wireless (ローカル).
  • My Data: View your play records and set the game options.
  • Internet: Go online to play matches against your friends or random players.

Single Puyo Puyo


These are the two game modes you can play in this game. Puyo Puyo Tsu is the definitive game mode that's been in use since 1994; Puyo Puyo Fever is a casual friendly mode introduced in 2004. When you choose an option, the next screen pops up:

  • Battle: Play set-matches against the CPU.
  • Endurance: Play against CPUs one after another without stopping until you lose.

Set the number of computer opponents.

Character Select


Press Y to choose a random character. Press - or + to select all characters immediately.

Cheat: Hold L while selecting the computer's character to max out their AI's strength.

You can check the Puyo Nexus wiki for the names of the playable characters.

Notes

There are some leftover menus that aren't translated, but I left those out because I thought they were self-explanatory. If you have any questions, suggestions, or need help navigating the menus still, please ask on the Puyo Discord
