I'm interested in this game quite a bit. There's 2 things that concerns me though... How does the RNG work, and is there any TASes of the original game out there on Nicovideo? (i assume it does) If something useful comes up, I may do a run that aims for speed, possibly on a viable difficulty setting, since it's quite different for each one (not only plot-wise). Well, I might do some research in the meantime, it could take a while then.

Google turns up a few hits. These kinds of games seem like hell to plan out, so good luck if you decide to take this on!

Getting to Carbuncle in the Harahara course on very hard with 4 fevers or less is quite the challenge. The first 4 opponents can be done without entering fever mode. Accord is tough even if you enter fever mode. Wrong colored Puyo stack with massive garbage incoming in fever mode is a death sentence. Dammit Accord, you destroyed my run.

I used the GBA version which was developed alongside the DS version. My reputation would've been saved had I been able to finish it. Oh well, at least I made a run of the WakuWaku course, but too bad I can't submit it even if the emulator and/or core can be accepted for submissions.
