Dharma Dojo

Satan has enlarged the sun in a devious attempt to get a perfect tan. Arle Nadja embarks on a quest to defeat him in this competitive puzzle game. This is the 3rd installment of the Puyo Puyo games series, and the sequel to Puyo Puyo Tsu. After the highly acclaimed success of its predecessor, Compile took a slightly more retro approach, so players had a more original feel to the game over that of Tsu. The name of Puyo Puyo SUN comes from a Japanese pun on san, and also indicates a new Puyo brought into the game. As Sun Puyo were used in this game, and the game itself is not only set on a tropical beach, but is the third in the series (san (三)) is the Japanese word for the number three), the name served multiple purposes. This game was released only in Japan. Following the arcade release, Puyo Puyo Sun was ported to the then-current home consoles. The Saturn version was released merely three months after the arcade release, while the other ports were released in late 1997 and throughout 1998. The Saturn, PlayStation, and Windows 95 versions feature fully voiced cutscenes unlike the original ST-V version.

Mario & Wario is a puzzle game that is compatible with the SNES Mouse. The player chooses Princess Peach, Mario or Yoshi, and Wario proceeds to drop a bucket on their head (the object changes in later levels). The player controls Wanda the fairy to guide the now-blinded character through an obstacle course, to reach Luigi waiting at the end.

Dr. Mario was remastered for the Super Famicom and released as a stand-alone Nintendo Power service release, only in Japan, and also for the Nintendo Gateway System. The game also received a Satellaview broadcast. The same version was previously bundled with Tetris and released in the West as Tetris & Dr. Mario.

Rupupu Cube: Lup Salad is a block-pushing puzzle game developed by Fupac for the PlayStation in Japan only until it offered in the US through PSN Import Classic. It has been ported to both the DS and the PSP in Japan as well. The characters were designed by Izumi Takemoto.

Dharma Dojo, or Daruma Dojo, is a puzzle game with stacks of blocks that the player bashes through to a gutter that collects the blocks at the bottom of the screen. By removing blocks of the same type, the player eliminates them. In the game's story, the daruma/dharma dolls and colored blocks are summoned by oni to terrorize the populace, and it's down to the player character (the player can choose from a male and a female character) to remove them. Dharma Dojo was released to the Arcade in 1994 and ported to the Super Famicom the following year.

This version was released for use with the Nintendo Power cartridge, and included all the levels designed by game creators (which wasn't possible to do with the 8MB Satellaview Memory Pak). It was afterwards released as a Super Famicom standard cartridge and also for the japanese Wii and Wii U Virtual Console. Sutte Hakkun is a puzzle action game in the shape of a platformer. The playing character is an abundant-beaked bird resembling a penguin, named Hakkun, that is able to walk and jump but not to fly. The Rainbow of Happiness shined in the sky above Peaceful Islands: one day it broke apart and now Hakkun has to track down, collect, and put together all rainbow crystals to relive it. The gameplay hinges upon two elements: blocks and potions, the latter of several colours. Hakku makes its way through levels by changing the position of blocks — that will be done by swallowing them to release them on an other place then — and sucking potions — that are to be injected to blocks by the beak, endowing them with new properties consequential to the colour of the fluid — from jars. A level is cleared when the rainbow shards in it are collected. Neither a time limit nor enemy characters are there impeding Hakkun's way. Equally distinctive is the score system: a set number of points is given at the beginning of each level, and a decrease happens with any move made, thus rewarding the player for completing levels with as little moves as possible.

Ancient Stone Tablets was a Japan-Only release for the Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. It was an add on made for Satellaview, a system that takes radio broadcasts and processes them into games live. The game came in four weekly broadcasts and made new additions to the original, such as weather, many new dungeons, and a new story. The game was much like a Second Quest or Master Quest of A Link to the Past, sharing a very similar overworld with slight changes and entirely new dungeons. Unlike a Second Quest however, it has an entirely new story. Various actions earned the player points, and these points could later be traded in to Nintendo for different prizes. Ancient Stone Tablets is different from most other Zelda games as the game's central heroes are actually the avatars of the player's ID for the BS-X Broadcasting System (Super Famicon), drawn into Hyrule, which is also true for BS The Legend of Zelda. The difference being that this time the player does not take the place of Link, but takes part in a new tale set after the events of A Link to the Past. The male character wears a green tunic (though others are later available) and a backwards baseball cap. The female character has long red hair and is otherwise almost exactly the same as the male.
