Tetris DS
AAH! I can hardly contain my excitement about this game. It looks like it's shaping up to be the most exciting thing to happen to Tetris since, well, Tetris. The game now features a whole bunch of different game modes, each of which are presented with the aid of oldschool Nintendo franchises (Mario, Metroid, Zelda, you know the drill). The touch screen adds an extra direct control method, and there are loads of strange puzzle modes to explore, some of which seem very interesting. The game also features 10 player multiplayer (on one cartridge!) and equally exciting WiFi capabilities. Here are some screenshots, courtesy of IGN: I've already preordered the game. I'm a real puzzle game nut and it seems like I'll be playing this one for hours. Jam it back in, in the dark. |

Seriously... there hasn't been a good tetris out for years.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
This'll probably crush Zoo Keeper as my favorite puzzle game on DS. Donkey Kong will sit on Hitler. The new modes like Push and Catch look pretty rad, and I dig the messy graphical style in the Standard mode. It's almost Wario Ware-ish.
This place has some long ass gameplay videos, and MP3s (which are just ripped straight from the videos but oh well). Most amazing jew boots |
Argg.... I dunno. Its been so long since I've played Tetris, but I really don't know if it can pull me away from my Meteos addiction or not. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Tetris, but Meteos has devoured countless hours of my life over the last six months.... I'll probably get it sooner or later, but for now I'm only getting one game March 20: Metroid Prime Hunters.
- WraithTwo - How ya doing, buddy? |
Tetris. what can I say? 10 people playing at once? Over Wifi, being able to see the other opponents boards? Watching as the combos you pull off stick junk blocks on their screens? Laughing in glee the whole time? (unless you just suck at tetris) Another deffinate buy... Man, March is going to kill my wallet.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
Looks juicy. Although I sucked at Tetris, I'll willing to have another go at it. You can bet I'll be getting this game.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Oh I can't wait. I should pre order.
FELIPE NO |
They should be packaging this with DSes and DS Lites like they did with the original Game Boy. Then again, they probably don't need to create any more demand, at least not in Japan.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Im gonna be looking forward for this game
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Oh wait, I have no friends. Well, only one with a DS, but that's no fun. What are the WiFi capabilities like? Once the DS picks up and takes WiFi seriously with a larger number of games making good use of it, I may consider it. I don't want it to be another Nintendo item like the Gamecube, which has a single decent game per year which you're expected to play thoroughly until the next decent game is released. There's too many ways they can easily fuck it up with Tetris; having too many options to play around with is a bad thing. Simple yet addictive modes, plus WiFi multiplayer however, sounds quite interesting. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
But 1vs1 Tetris is loads of fun. =D I'm not sure what the plan is with WiFi mode exactly, I haven't really heard much about it. I'm would think it'll work much like Mario Kart DS works, though. How ya doing, buddy? |
Holy shit! If the first shots of Lumines alone were hard-on inspiring, all of these shots just made me bust a nut.
I just fucking pre-ordered it on Amazon too! I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
This'll be on my 06 to buy list for definate! It will SLAM Zoo keeper to the ground!
I was speaking idiomatically. |
This is a must-buy for me, as well. Tetris is quite the game, and I have the fondest memories of myself flowing through the countless modes of the original, on my archaic yellow-toned Game Boy.
So, nostalgia factor + WiFi functionality = almost an instantaneous purchase. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I am now lusting for sound effect-less music files...
FELIPE NO |
This is a sure buy for me. I've long been intrigued to buy a simple Tetris LCD game - everytime I see it, I just get this natural... Tetris urge.
This game is perfect for me. It's got Tetris aaand modes galore. More than a 50in1-LCD? I think so! I can see myself playing that stylus mode a lot! Poking bricks till they collapse ='D It'll be great! Oh noes, Infernal's Tribute to Tetris Thread is gone forever What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
The spread in Nintendo Power about it got me really excited. I can't wait for real Tetris opponents that can't whine that they suck and go crying off, leaving me to only get better in a story mode or some shit.
I love the original Tetris, next would be New Tetris followed by Next Tetris, but the series has lacked innovation since then. Tetris Worlds was just a horrendous packaging of all the previous incarnations. I'm gonna eat this game up! *runs to preorder!* Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I actually almost feel guilty for wanting to play this game so much.
I'm sure that more than any other game aside from Capcom franchises, Tetris has had more remakes of it that add almost nothing. The extra gameplay modes seem like cheap gimmicks, but I still really want to play it. What I'd love (but probably won't happen) is for this game to integrate the elements of The New Tetris on the N64. The main hook for that one was that if you create a 4x4 solid block out of four pieces, it turns into a shiny cube. When cleared, it gives you a line multiplier for the lines that have some of the cube in them. It was a really cool mechanic that I thought totally changed the game. Even if the extra modes end up sucking, playing 10 players locally is amazing, and the wi-fi is a nice touch as well. Who am I kidding, I'm pretty much sold on it already. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
This game is probably going to become the new drug of the gaming world. I am definitely picking it up.
And let's not forget that New Super Mario Bros will be released around a month and a half after Tetris. This is an awesome time to own a DS. Most amazing jew boots Return to Crystal Lake... My Wii Friend Code 1942-4227-2974-0276 |
Arrgh....I wasn't even going to pick up this game, but then I heard there's 10 player modes on one cartridge. It's too bad I don't have any friends here that has a DS though. Oh well, there's always wireless mode. Hmmm, and it's only $39.99, which is cheaper than all other DS games.
Decisions decisions. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
This is the reasion I'm geting a DS
Simple as that. I was speaking idiomatically. |
I noticed this when looking up more information for this game. Are Bobo and Sass hiding something from us?
P.S. I think the Donkey Kong theme looks the best. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
FELIPE NO Bless the Maker and His water. Bless the coming and the going of Him. |
I will definitely pick this up.
I can't wait for this. I'm a Tetris addict. Oh the joy. Who's gonna play online with me? What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
I preorder this along with MPH for $34.99 plus tax for both. They ask me to put down $10 for both game to which I cannot do. I have to pay it in full or else I'll spend the rest of the money on other games. @_@
