***Panel de Pon*** (パネルでポン, *Panel de Pon*), also referred to in Japan as ***Panepon*** (パネポン) is the first mainline *Panel de Pon* game developed and released (not counting the first Satellaview Event version). It has been rereleased on a variety of platforms in Japan-only (barring Korea on the Wii VC). On May 14th, 2020, it was announced that the game would be released for the Super NES - *Nintendo Switch Online* Service on May 20th, 2020, which marks the first time that the game was finally available to people outside Japan (barring Korea).

There exists an unofficial English patch for the game, with the first patch being released on June 8, 2007 (v0.9b), with a few fixes and an English title screen coming later on December 31, 2007 (v1.0).

## Story

This is the world where the fairies live. Nature is rich, and all kinds of animals live peacefully together with the fairies.
The fairies live with various things found in nature. Nothing in nature can survive without a fairy. [so basically, the fairy world is reliant on fairy magic to run properly.] They dwell together with all kinds of things, from water to the green of forests to fire to wind.
Every fairy possesses magic as well. It's not intended to hurt anyone; instead, this magic is used to maintain the peace of the fairies' and animals' world.
One of the fairies, the flower fairy Lip, is a cheerful and spirited young girl. Unfortunately, she isn't very good at using peacekeeping magic yet, so she has to use the help of her magic wand to cast spells.
One day, out of nowhere, monsters appeared in this peaceful land and started wreaking havoc. They bullied the fairies, laid waste to the world, and did whatever they pleased! As if that weren't enough, they cast an evil spell on the fairies who were best friends with each other, causing them to fight with each other!
"At this rate, those monsters will take over the entire fairy world!"
One fairy alone--Lip, who managed to escape from the monsters' magic--went to rescue her fellow fairies.

## Other versions

### BS Yoshi no Panepon

*Main article: BS Yoshi no Panepon*

***Yoshi no Panepon***, also known as ***Tetris Attack*** outside of Japan, is a reskin of the original *Panel de Pon*. The characters in this game were replaced with characters based on *Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island* to make the game more marketable to people outside of Japan, similar to the first *Puyo Puyo* game outside of Japan. This version was also ported to the Game Boy. Some stages were redesigned entirely. The *Tetris* name in the game's title has caused licensing issues for both versions for a potential Virtual Console release outside of Japan. This game is a start of many rebrandings for the series.

### BS Panel de Pon - Event Versions

*Main article: BS Panel de Pon - Event Versions*

There were three different demo event versions of the game released exclusively on the Satellaview service: ***Panel de Pon - Event Version*** (released on October 17, 1995, which predates Panel de Pon (SFC) by ten days), ***Panel de Pon - Event Version 2***, and ***Panel de Pon - Event '98***  (which released on January 12, 1996, and December 28, 1998 respectively). As the Satellaview never released outside of Japan, these games have also never seen an official Western release.
