Differences
There were subtle differences between the domestic versions of ~n, but a vast difference between the domestic versions and the Game Boy Color version. Puyo Puyo~n: Kaa-Kun to Issho (lit. "Puyo Puyo~n: Together with Kaa-kun") for the PlayStation had the same music as the Dreamcast version of Puyo Puyo~n, but only supported up to two players. Puyo Puyo~n Party 64 for the Nintendo 64 had different music from the Dreamcast version and lacked the voiced cutscenes, but retained four player multiplayer and included a Transfer Pak mode where you could unlock more artwork by plugging in Pocket Puyo Puyo SUN. Pocket Puyo Puyo~n for the Game Boy Color used music from Pocket Puyo Puyo Sun as well as music from Puyo~n itself, had more characters and more specials, including some of the cast from Pocket Puyo Puyo Sun, and Minotauros instead of Zou Daimaou, but naturally only supported two players and had the same storyline, retaining the comic humour of the previous versions. Pocket Puyo Puyo~n also had a special Rally mode where you faced all 23 characters to unlock the specials, and you could choose which special you wanted to use before the game started. This version didn't have Rule Henka or any board-specific functions like the domestic versions had, nor did it have any of the different grid sizes for Tokoton Puyo Puyo, but it does feature the ability to play Endless similarly to Puyo Puyo Tsu's Action Endless (where garbage appears in the tray, and helpers appear at random times depending on the difficulty setting).
The stance that Puyo Puyo~n has taken into the series may have been used as a base for Puyo Puyo 7.

Famous quotes containing the word differences:
“What strikes many twin researchers now is not how much identical twins are alike, but rather how different they are, given the same genetic makeup....Multiples don’t walk around in lockstep, talking in unison, thinking identical thoughts. The bond for normal twins, whether they are identical or fraternal, is based on how they, as individuals who are keenly aware of the differences between them, learn to relate to one another.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
“The differences between revolution in art and revolution in politics are enormous.... Revolution in art lies not in the will to destroy but in the revelation of what has already been destroyed. Art kills only the dead.”
—Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)
“Quintilian [educational writer in Rome about A.D. 100] hoped that teachers would be sensitive to individual differences of temperament and ability. . . . Beating, he thought, was usually unnecessary. A teacher who had made the effort to understand his pupil’s individual needs and character could probably dispense with it: “I will content myself with saying that children are helpless and easily victimized, and that therefore no one should be given unlimited power over them.””
—C. John Sommerville (20th century)
