NEways, I don't remember the original maker but it was Japanese and came out eventually on the Famicom. You would drop these weird blobs from the top of the screen and be able to rotate them this way or that. When the blobs hit something they stop. If they are next to the same color, they "merge" together. Get 4 of them merged and you got a combo and they disappear, leaving the rest of the blobs on top of them to fall down. Basically, it is the same thing as Super Bub and Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo. :P - e!
