+===Staff===
-Puyo Nexus goes back to the creation of the Puyopuyo Museum by Erikku somewhere around the year 2000. The Puyopuyo Museum was the only English source for Puyo Puyo, Madou Monogatari and Discstation information. The site moved from server to server for a while and in the end it was situated on an invisionfree board. Activity slowed down eventually and Erikku and co-admin Zipplet did not update Puyopuyo Museum anymore. Tangerine started a new Puyopuyo Museum on his server and the whole site was renewed. Later the Puyopuyo Museum was renamed to Puyo Nexus with new admins Tangerine, Hernan and Yoshi. In 2009 Tangerine left the Puyo scene and Puyo Nexus moved to nmn's server. Now, Puyo Nexus is the main source for Puyo Puyo information with new content and increasing activity every day!
