About ten years ago, my grandmother was staying in the hospital. When I visited her, she tells that me she’s bored and asks me if there’s a video game that “an old lady could understand”. I recommend Tetris to her, downloaded it on her tablet, and showed her how to play.
The next week, I went to see her again. As soon as I walk into the room, she looks up from her tablet and says “I hate you for getting me addicted to this stupid game.”
Oops xD
Tetris Diamond is one of my favourite things on the eShop and I'd absolutely have no idea it exists if it wasn't for you, Jon! - I love all you do for bringing up these obscure oddities. I hope everybody purchases it immediately so the Nokia SMS app gets ported next.
That's the dream
i used to love this game! want to get it again but by the looks of it they fall fast. is that how fast the game is? also i dont see Tetris Diamond any where.please answer.
Wonder if we will ever get a Fire Emblem Tetris spinoff where the divine dragon has to strategically set their "units" to create explosions/battles and end the reign of the Shadow Dragon Tetriminon
Well Tetris 99 has Fire Emblem skins
I wanna play that now
I honestly feel like a Fire Emblem Panel de Pon/Puzzle League spin-off might be more plausible, given the shared developers
The other Tetris games are great but you can't beat that zen experience of playing Tetris Effect. it is an absolutely phenomenal game :)
Why did it need to go so hard?
@@turretboi RIGHT?!
the creators are also making a lab on the enhance page Synesthesia Lab showcases Synesthesia X1 - 2.44 Hazo: Mind Waves at Media Ambition Tokyo 2021
Tetris effects only shortcoming is its multiplayer not having an accessible 4 player mode
You mentioned the A Theme, B theme and C Theme, but did you know GB Tetris has a secret fourth theme? In the very first prints of the Japanese versions of GB Tetris, the A Theme was not the famous Korobeiniki, but was instead a completely different song. This rarer version of the GB Tetris is known as the "Minuet version".
Puyo puyo Tetris is probably the one I’d recommend getting if you have multiple people you want to play with otherwise stick to Tetris effect
Jon, this video is so good. That being said, I think its time for a ranking of your favorite Tetris games ever made. If there is anybody that could do such a list, it would be you.
You forgot to mention that Tetris Effect Connected has NES Tetris basically built in! If you love Game boy Tetris, it’s worth checking it out!
Tetris, the easiest to learn, simplest gameplay but addictive to the core.
I've been playing Type-B in Tetris GB on Switch. It is still super appealing, and not being able to hold a piece like the modern games makes a huge difference in strategy. I love it!
"Buy Tetris Effect. And if not, I'm coming for you..."
Don't threaten me with a good time, Jon.
I honestly have not seen ANYONE mention the RPG mode in Puyo Tetris 2. Good on you Jon for giving me another reason to play the game again!
The thing with tetris becoming more forgiving is due to the system it uses to randomize the pieces. The game never knows which piece you “need” but it takes the 7 possible tetriminos and sorts them randomly. Then does it again when they are all used and so on.
LITERALLY SEARCHED THE WORD "TETRIS" LAST NIGHT LOOKING FOR MORE TETRIS CONTENT AMD IM AWOKEN TO THIS. JON, YOU ARE WONDERFUL. YOU ARE A WISE MAN.
We started playing Tetris 99 every sunday, and we still are. We now play other Tetrises, and have a very healthy and motivated community.
Tetris is the best! We need MORE!
Hope NES Tetris and SNES Tetris & Dr. Mario (maybe Tetris Battle Gaiden?) make its way to NSO.
As someone who doesn't really like tetris, tetris effect is one of my favorite games. I would recommend it even if you're not a puzzle game fan
Tetris on Gameboy is still my favorite. That music is just so infectious. Every song in that game. It’s so unforgiving
Nothing will ever beat the original Gameboy version of Tetris, they even got the music to a UK number 1 back in 1992.
Oh shoot, I didn't know Tetris Effect and Grandmaster were on Switch! I didn't even know what Diamond was. Sounds like I have some catching up to do. It was a pleasure to play Game Boy Tetris with you and I think it awoke something in the Tetris chamber on my brain. Good stuff.
The OG Tetris on the Game Boy was my childhood back in the day. Absolutely adore that game, and I absolutely ADORE Tetris Effect.
I love Tetris so much, I do wish you could play Puyo Puyo Tetris story mode with just using Tetris
Somehow I KNEW you were going to make a video about this as soon as GB Tetris was announced for the Switch Jon, and you didn’t disappoint.
(Obligatory jealous comment about NES Nintendo Tetris not being on NSO. Yes I know it doesn’t have a 2 player mode, but I miss hearing the sugarplum fairies theme with falling tetrominoes dammit. XD)
At this point Jon could talk about the phone book and it would be interesting.
This was a great video!
I have had tons of fun playing tetris over the years, first on one of those hand-held "gadgets" specifically for tetris that you'd buy on many stores, later on pc and now on switch (mostly solo marathon or ocasionally online in tetris 99) but when I played Tetris Effect it completely blew my mind.
It is an experience! The graphics and the different atmospheres make the game incredibly beautiful and immersive. The music (many types) and the effects on the background + the pieces, it's just super and very addictive. Love it!
I've been trying the classic one now on nso and also having a good time. I love how it looks with the game boy colour filter, especially.
Nintendo: "oh boy I sure hope you all love Tetris."
You all owe it to yourselves to get Tetris The Grand Master on Switch. ARIKA and the Tetris company need to see that the TGM series is wanted, and this is how they'll be able to get TGM4 made. I never thought the day would come that TGM would go worldwide, and this is a much better way on cost to play it than original hardware, importing it, etc. which will be A LOT of $ spent in the end.
For that last bit about the Mega Drive having a Tetris, I want to add that both the NES and the Nintendo 64 have their own Tetris, as well.
Also, there's Tetris: The Grand Master 2 and 3, and who knows when they're released.
don't forget Tetris and Dr. Mario on SNES
As a fellow Tetris aficionado allow me to give thanks on introducing me to Tetris Diamond. Will buy later today!
Bought! Question: my game is very laggy. Is this an online connected game? Can I tweak something to make it more responsive? Laggy Tetris is no good!
Dang, I'd bought Tetris Diamond already just to say I had every Switch Tetris game, but I had no idea Grand Master had been released too!
I'm such a casual Tetris fan, having only... five versions of it... 😞
See the og gameboy Tetris doesn't get rereleased often so this is a real treat.
Tetris effect and puyotet are probably some of my favorite modern editions…of course online is terrifying in both
Thanks to my new headset, your voice can now reach a whole new level of deep
I love Tetris so much. The Switch has so many good Tetris games. I love Tetris Effect and Tetris 99. And I was so into GameBoy version, I’m so glad to see that come to Switch as well! I’m gonna be interested to see how they handle the Gameboy’s sound effects, since it couldn’t play a lot of sounds at once. I like both ways, where the music gets drowned out for a second, and where it doesn’t because modern sound chips can handle both music and sound effects. I just love seeing how the emulator handles it.
Literally wondering which tetris I should play today and this video appears. Jon is my spirit animal or something
Tetricles truly is a cruel and angry god
The Game Boy NSO app is in the Tetris folder, but the SNES NSO app isn't in the Puyo folder? It has Puyo Puyo 2.
Besides Tetris 99, Effect Connected is my favorite way to play Tetris, especially on the Switch.
Puyo Puyo Tetris 1 and 2 are literally my heart and soul. Love these games so muuuuch
It does indeed!
Looking forward to the sequel video - 'Nintendo Switch Has So Many Ways to Play Sonic the Hedgehog 2'
Dont see me complaining. I'm waiting for tetris giant arcade archives
Thank you John
So many Tetris Games on the Switch but still not an single version that you can play in tate (vertical) mode on TV. There was an update for tetris effect in march for tate mode but you can only use it in handheld or table mode. I use a rotateable wall mount for my tv for ikaruga, pinball games etc. this is fantastic. But still no Tetris in vertical mode.
Tetris Effect in VR is a religious experience.
They just announced... TGM The Absolute 2 for Switch. So, maybe they are going to bring TGM 3 and the Genesis one as well. There's a chance that the Switch can get up to 10 Tetris titles by the end of it's lifetime. I feel you're going to make a new video.
Shallow as it is, it's heart warming to hear someone else with a deep voice presenting these things, and then see the comments talking about the actual topic! Congratulations on building this community.
Anyways, I can't imagine playing Tetris Effect outside of VR. And while I appreciate Diamond and Gameboy, it's missing the custom soundtracks of Worlds on Xbox and it's not got any classic NES themes...
It's all just Tetris for people who actually enjoy Tetris. Madness.
Alas, my favorite Tetris game is still Panel De Pon.
We have an 8th now, tgm2 haha
Great video, thanks
Now we need Tetris on Labo VR.
What an awesome video Jon!
I wanna give a shout shoutout to Pokemon Puzzle League as that was a Tetris attack expanded. Great little game with a 3D wall. Also imo a good Tetris game with a dynamite soundtrack is Tetrisphere. I feel like that game is a little under appreciated but not overrated. It’s my favorite but I’m not the biggest Tetris fan.
Played this on my unmodded gameboy color
gaming In It's purest form
Laughs in 8 versions of Puyo Puyo
It sucks that the Switch version of Tetris Effect removed the VR mode, it would have worked well with Labo VR. I have it on PS4 (as well as Switch) but unfortunately don't have PSVR, so I've never been able to experience the VR mode.
And here we are, after Tetris The Grandmaster 2 ACE premiere
There's a game called Papertris getting released soon on the eshop.
VR is the ONLY way to play Tetris Effect!
Tetris 99 is my go-to game to play while I listen to podcasts. I'm sure I've logged more hours onto that game than any other by a few miles.
Was like "Wait, which one did I forget? Ah, japanese exclusive mobile game port; that explains it".
I think Tetris might be the game I have spend lote hours in my life. Across many platforms and many formats and I love how we are having a great variety of games on the switch.
Tetris effects is the best played a lot of them
They may have a lot, but they still don’t have my favorite. Tetris & Dr. Mario on the SNES is by far my favorite. On the surface it’s just a pretty basic collection, but I’ve spent so many hours playing the Mixed Match mode with my family. It’s my most wanted SNES Online game so I can play it again with my mom online
8:50 Best Puyo boy spotted. 👀
Also, Jon, please make a Puyo Puyo dedicated video. Please.
The Nintendo Switch has a Tetris for Everyone.
Love this! Tetris is such a fun game and the Switch is the perfect home for it
The New Tetris on N64 is still my favorite. The silver and gold combo block system was so addictive.
You should add Tricky Towers to that folder. And I missed it in this video.
“Thou art a cruel, and angry god!”
“LINE PIECEEEEE!!!!”
Rings in my head playing the gameboy version, it’s so cruel
Jon is coming for me and I feel fine.
I didn't know Tetris Effect was available for the Switch! I thought it was only available for the PS4! 🤯
I really hope getting game boy Tetris means we might get Tetris for NES N64 GBA and Genesis, I need them all!
The Tetris machine
My faves are Tetris Effect: Connected and 99
Hi! I've loved each and every single one of these games. Loved this video by the way ! I just wish to add a few more things as a higher level Tetris player.
GB Tetris : Weirdly enough not having a shadow piece doesn't make a difference, nor does the worse RNG (though you gotta play a bit safer). The only thing that makes this game truly difficult is the awful, awful 6.5 Hz ARR (i.e the speed the pieces moves at when you keep the D-Pad pressed). The speed level caps at 20 and this speed is really not that bad once you have a bit of experience, but the fact that you need to tap D-Pad consistently to survive is really tiring. It definitely is the most iconic though.
Tetris 99 : Yes. Not a popular pick from the Guideline Tetris community but a personal favorite of mine. It's just chill to play and vibe (I'm just a bit sad that the shock factor of hearing "Flight of the Bumblebee" lost its impact after playing for literally thousand of hours, but hey...)
TGM : The most hardcore Tetris game... until you figure out ARS and IRS, respectively the rotation system the game uses (which allows for stupidly easy spins. Even the current rotation system, the SRS, asks to be more thoughtful about them) and the buffering of your rotation. What really throws me and a lot of guideline players off though is the lack of both Wall Kicks and Floor kicks (i.e, when you rotate near a wall or on the floor in modern games, the piece will rotate. Not in this one.). TGM 1 is surprisingly easy to get GM if you have experience with other Tetris games, it took me about a month. Fortunately the easy parts are solved in TGM 2 (and TGM 3, but it's done way worse there. And that's coming from someone who got the GM grade there aswell. Though to be fair this one has SRS).
Tetris Diamond : Haven't played
Tetris Effect : Totally agree. The max number of line clear during zone has been shaterred to 34, maybe a bit more now. In solo you can't have more than a 23 line zone clear though. Learning IRS is a really fun part of zone too! Also Zone Battle is by far the most balanced vs game mode out of any Tetris game, both official and unofficial.
PPT 1 & 2 : ...These games' online died when TE:C released, especially PPT 2 due to its much harsher matchmaking system. Which is a shame, I love the ambiance of this one but man. 4 wide really did not help its reputation either, at least at higher level.
Again, loved the video!
1:30 JON! I THOUGHT YOU WERE A TRUE TETRIS FAN! IT’S CALLED A J PIECE
JON PIECE
This is a really cool video, thanks for it! I had no idea Tetris Diamond was a thing. I love looking at old phone games, so I might have to make a Japanese eShop account just to get it lol...
Any person who manages to bring up Endless Ocean in a video about Tetris is amazing. Still, the Switch is definitely a Tetris machine, I hope it gets even more Tetrises in the future.
I remember playing the Switch and my relative asked if it had Tetris
I’ve never been able to get into Tetris type games
As a huge Tetris fan I have literally been eating on my switch the only thing that I would add would be NES Tetris the unreleased Genesis Tetris and the new Tetris on Nintendo 64. Sure in my dream world I would love for them to add capcom's magical Tetris Challenge on Nintendo 64 but I don't think the licensing would work out but I've been wrong before! Maybe "Tetris 2" or Tetris DX for GB?
Nintendo Switch still needs more Tetris, tbh
you’re a real one!!!
I love Tetris too Jon, especially when they do a theme weekend. I have put more hours into this than even animal crossing 😮
I like to play whilst waiting for my dinner to cook. Unfortunately, on the rare occasion I do really well I have over cooked it, literally.
Tetris Effect is really good too though the Switch really struggles at times making it frustrating.
I own and love PuyoPuyo Tetris 1&2 and Tetris Effect: Connected. Spent countless hours on those.
Tetris 99 is included in the price for NSO. Saying it’s free distracts people from the fact that they are paying money for these subscriptions. Companies bank on people forgetting they are paying money for these services and describing it as “free” makes people think they are getting something for nothing. Sorry, this is just a big pet peeve of mine, you can’t get something for free by paying money for it.
Can't wait for the point and click Tetris game starring Taron Eggerton!
Tetris 99 has no way of being 'generous' with what pieces it gives the player because every player gets the same pieces in the same order.
your Puyo Puyo folder is almost as big as your Tetris folder you say? When I was putting my games in folders, I just made a folder called "Puyo Puyo Tetris" and lumped them all in there. :D
I would love The New Tetris for N64. Not for the gameplay, but that OST is amazing. I remember recording the soundtrack to my PC cause it was that good.
the only one that i like is tetris effect since it was zone mode mechanic, the otheres are missing gameplay elements.
tetris theme song lyrics: tet tetris tet tetris tet tetris tet tetris tet tetris tet tris tris tris tris tris tris tris tris tris tris tris tet tet tris tetir
watching a GVG video is like playing a game of tetris haha am i right guys am i right guys am i right guys am i right come on am i right
oh damn this fella is right
@@GVG holy moly
I bought Tetris Diamond as soon as I finished the video. Thank you for spreading the word! 🙏
You could say it’s the most portable game
Has so many Tetris games... except my favorite version... the NES version.
Got ‘em all, even Diamond, and Tetris Gods help me, if they release another one on Switch I’ll buy it too.
I actually hope that with the release of Game Boy Tetris that we can get a release of NES Tetris since that version has never seen any rerelease
it would be a very important release since that is by far the most competitive Classic Tetris version to the point where Tetris Effect: Connected straight up has a Classic Score Attack that's purely based on NES Tetris
Weirdly, on NES, some people actually prefer the unlicensed Tengen version of Tetris
@@jomaq9233 personally I think Nintendo's version is the better game because Tengen's feels off to play where as Nintendo's is a lot snappier and less frustrating to control
the biggest con I don't see anyone bring up with the Tengen version is how the game stops to calculate your score every 30 lines cleared which can get really annoying on long games where as Nintendo's doesn't have this problem and just ends when you top out
@@Bro3256 I think the main reason some people like Tengen’s version more is (subjectively) better music and more features
@@jomaq9233 feature wise yeah its the better game, Tengen's version even has a complete multiplayer mode which went completely unused in Nintendo's version but rom hacks have fixed that aspect and many tend to just play 2 different instances of Nintendo's version of Tetris for head to head multiplayer
So glad to have GameBoy Tetris on Switch!
well damn I guess I have to get tetris effect
You say that like it's a bad thing.
I love tetris effect but the connected mode is pretty hard to find a match
