At long last, the Wii gets its first (out of three) Puyo Puyo game playable in English, thanks to Saetta06 and Nenilein!
It's fully translated, and can you can either patch a backup ISO, or use Riivolution with your real disc. It has been also patched to use with Wiimmfi, so the Online mode works.
Here's the link to Romhacking.net to patch the ISO:

Here's the link to the Riivolution version (can be found on the video's description):

The game itself contains the usual Story Mode, Endless Modes, a local Versus Mode and Online Mode. It also has the School Mode to teach you the basic mechanics and strategies. Puyo Puyo 7 also contains several rulesets based on the gameplay of older entries of Puyo Puyo besides the main mode, such as the original Puyo Puyo, Puyo Puyo 2, Puyo Pop Fever and also Mission Puyo, in which you have to do certain tasks (Pop X number of Puyos, do x number of Chains, pop two colors at the same time, etc), so it's quite complete and the Story Mode keeps alternating between modes.
It even has crossplay with Puyo Puyo 7 on the NDS, which also got translated time ago if I remember right.
I've played it for a few hours and while I'm not that good at Puyo the translation is great, it looks well made, and the game is fun. It also has some cute little things, like being able to change how the Puyos look, so they resemble the ones from the 16-Bit games, for example.
If you played Puyo Puyo Tetris, the visual design of characters and such will be immediately familiar, the writing also feels along the lines too. It's great to have the Wii getting some fan translations as of late, between things like this, the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games and Brand Newman's work.
