- An official re-release of NES Tetris was something I never thought would happen, but Tetris Effect Connected is making it as close to reality as possible. This sponsored video is a deeper dive into what it took to adapt a 31 year old game for a modern release.
Tetris Effect Connected: www.xbox.com/en-US/games/tetr...
Thank you so much to Greentea for the interview: / @sgreentea
My Twitch: / agamescout
I was initially disappointed that Greentea decided not to participate in CTWC this year, but now its clear that he wanted to spend as much time as possible perfecting Tetris Effect Connected, especially the Classic Tetris mode, and now I couldn't be more grateful for that. I'm beyond grateful that the Tetris Company allowed this to happen, so that I can have an opportunity to practice my core Classic Tetris skills during a time that I cannot obtain the original NES hardware due to Covid-19. Can't wait to pick up the game on release day!
Greentea be like “BRB Classic Tetris scene, I’m gonna make a Tetris game.”
@Miguel Kuan Santiago huh? mind explaining more?
@Miguel Kuan Santiago what happened
He was not banned.
@Miguel Kuan Santiago bro don't make up shit
Green tea is such a legend
The Legend of Uncle Greentea!
Every time I see him do anything he further cements himself into legend status. How does he do it
I am the legend.

As a new-gen Tetris player, i'm genuinely scared of NES Tetris physics.
It's just different
Yeah, no holds, no fast stacks (sorry my english is bad im not pretty good at all), And also *Chiptune music*
I'm okay at classic Tetris. Used to practice on game boy, but then I started playing Tetris DS and man. It feels great. It's so much easier and so much less stressful
same, my entire tetris strategy depends on SRS mechanics
@@LaskyLabs yeah it’s easier if you play at low level speeds
Having collaborated with Greentea back in 2016, I'm sure Greentea is the perfect person to lead the multiplayer game design. He writes code, composes music, at one point built his own rhythm game, and wrote a Japanese blog detailing NES Tetris' game mechanics in extreme details. After seeing this video, I preordered without a doubt!
❤️
what is the rhythm game called?
@@lue64 ^
Thanks for watching! This is the second sponsored video I made for Enhance that I’m also able to share on my channel. This is what Greentea’s been up to all year...
I have never made it past level 1 so this sounds really good!

This is the most ambitious crossover event in tetris history.
(thunder rumbling ominously in the distance)
*TETRIS x TETRIS*
@@deadfr0g *TETRIS EFFECT X CLASSIC TETRIS*
I love green tea :)
it's really nice that a seasoned player is helping develop the game, to make it authentic and balanced. That can't be said for lots of other games. Also, greentea is just such a great person.

That Madeline in your profile picture... you like Celeste, huh?
Thank you aGameScout for the incredible content. You really are ESPN of Classic Tetris.
I have one bit of constructive criticism if you don't mind: music was too high in the mix and sometimes it was hard to hear the voices ;)
Thank you! And thanks for the feedback, I'll make sure the music is turned down a little for the next one
Maybe you already know...but. You can also do an eq carve in the speech range on the music. Works like a charm! (Music producer/mixer here)
Just google human speech frequency range. Or just lower around 400 hz and around 2k hz.
I love how accessible this video is to new viewers of Classic Tetris content while still giving interesting info for long-time viewers. Keep up the great work, David!
P.S. Greentea seems like such a great dude
that's so cool, i've been playing on a phone emulator for 2 months, I will probably use this version to help me improve, then maybe one day buy a nes
if you have a pc or a laptop, you could also use an emulator :D
@@Tetrasaurus_ I know but on emulator, I'd rather play on my phone than on pc. I find it more fun and I think 500k+ score is not that hard to reach on phone
@@arcreehysteria9805 I find that theres horendous input lag when Im playing on my phone
It’s so cool seeing a new game come out that pays tribute and homage to a dedicated section of their fanbase.
(i dont think you have to ask which games i used to play)
Greentea and Koryan are my favorite players, and it's so wonderful how passionate Greentea is about Tetris Effect Connected. He truly is a pillar of the Tetris community. Loved the video.
Extra tetris and level 30! yaaaaayyy perfect game!!!
i feel like green tea is a 500 years old magician of tetris in a teenager body
Thanks to Scout and Enhance for uploading this coverage and interview! Now for the first time in 31 years we have a legit repro of Nintendo NES version in Japan thanks to two greatest CTWC ambassadors from the country.
we love you both,greentea for his unwavering positive vibes and ofc the smile and aGameScout for pretty much the same reason :D. i had to pause the E bracket video that iam watching right now because i saw you posted this. nice to see you 2 have a chat and i will sure be buying tetris effect now.
Amazing video Scout! I loved the interview with Greentea!
Thank you for doing this channel. Your storytelling is fantastic
Really nice video, I loved the interview with greentea. However it also cemented for me the fact that they will never add ARS/TGM style to a modern tetris release since he said he had to fight hard to even get Classic ruleset in. The only reason they could convince them was probably that the viewership for CTWC is doing so well right now. While TGM is basically dead... so yeah RIP to that dream of mine.
I hope they'll introduce single player classic marathon some day
I think from a legal perspective the might not be allowed too. To have a version that's near identical to the core gameplay of another game who's rights are owned by another company.
At least with this classic battle mode, the core appeal is a multiplayer function that didn't exist in the original game making it legally different enough to get away with
Awesome video. Can't wait for the release!
This is perfect been following classic Tetris for a while but wasn’t sure I wanted to invest into an nes setup just to try play but now I can play this as my first steps into playing Tetris
This is so cool to see .. imagine if all retro games got this kind of respect from their devs (or copyright holders, anyway)
.. [cough] Warcraft III
... [cough] Smash Bros
@aGameScout another good video with indepth content again nice one
I just got Tetris Effect Connected for Switch. I'm really glad I found this video - I had no idea this mode existed. Thanks!
This seemed long overdue to me, but definitely would have taken a lot of care to get right - nicely done!
I don’t even play Tetris, let alone NES tetris, but this is freaking awesome!
Seeing a old game with a loyal fan base being accurately ported to a modern console with the help of a respected player from the community to ensure everything goes right sounds like a dream come true.
I'm sobbing and shaking and gagging and choking and crying and laughing and vomiting Tetris is the best Fighting Game Community
Bless this man for this.
Finally I can make local tournaments by using only one PC. Thank you, Greentea for help with development. Tetris Effect made a lot of impression to me from start, and now it will take a separate place in my heart. Thank you, David, for explanation and promoting such masterpiece
I am so excited for this
Thanks for this video with Greentea, could we also get one about Tetris copyrights history? I think that it could be really interesting
Check out some interviews with Alexey Pazhitnov. He tells a lot history about his child (Tetris)
@@BrainMashup thanks, I will
Here's a great documentary about it: czcams.com/video/_fQtxKmgJC8/video.html ( The Story of Tetris | Gaming Historian )
I'd call it a real-life fairy tale since all the good guys had won in the end.
I swear I feel like Joseph emergence onto the scene and taking down the goliath that was Jonas really catalyzed the rebirth of a 30+ year old game using modern code. Such a beautiful thing.
Awesome video
He's back!!!
Glad to see that at least tetris really does care about its community! They really didn't have to do this, but they did!
What a time to be part of this community!
Greentea just can't stop being awesome
got to say agamescout your really selling this game now to me i don't really have the time or money to get everything i need for nes tetris so this looks like a great thing to get started on tetris
This is amazing. I hope Tetris Effect comes to Nintendo Switch. It would be a day 1 buy for me.
I think there are too much effects, the songs even lag on xbox when u do a big combo sometimes
It did comw but afaik there isnt nes tetris
I love this! I'm mostly excited because this will make classic tetris much more accessible to people from all around the world that can't get original NES. This can be a real game changer.
This is dope. It'd be interesting if the tournament swapped over to it.
Greentea, we love you
Great video. Hope tetris effect helps loosen up the tetris companies standardization. TGM, classic, modern, etc can all coexist, maybe just standardize mode names and include game info a bit more clearly.
Wish there was a simpler graphics look or an option for it but this still looks amazing.
I love how much effort was put in to make this exactly like NES Tetris, just in VS. mode with local and online multi-player. Any other game developer would have made a poor attempt at best.
I hope they bring over b-type with an update.
Greentea Tetris God.
So interested to try it.
yay more greentea :)
I love this man. Green T is the best
I don't know what we could do, but I feel we need to do something as a community to recognise how great the work is that Greentea has done for us.
This is unbelievable! Considering buying an Xbox just for this
Awesome!!
Boom Tetris from Greentea!
I can't wait to try this out on switch I wonder if the latency four classic score attack will be more noticeable I'm hopeful there is an option to prioritize framerate over resolution
One word :
Yes
If Enhance can get special approval to include NES Tetris rules, there might still be hope for Arika to get approval to include Sega Tetris rules for TGM4.
Noob question, is there any TGM-like mode here? I skipped Effect first and I'm just learning of Connected and it's nes mode, which is pretty cool, but I will always prefer the blips and blops of Master mode and the level increase with drops.
A few questions about the settings. Is there a way to decrease screen shake?
I CLICKED THIS SO FAST WHEN I SAW GREENTEA! BIG FAN!
I adore that they included a way to change the horizontal speed of the pieces. Sometimes the NES version can feel just a tad too restrictive when it comes to moving a piece to the sides, so letting us customize the gameplay to feel a bit more free is super welcome!
That challenge is what makes it fun and also frustrating
@@George-li1yv Definitely makes the game challenging and fun, but it is nice to mix it up for a new experience.
@@tipnsunny2107 yeah maybe but its not for me. I prefer sticking to the competitive rules.
Pretty sure greentea is a TGM player. That's why he's so good.
Yes!!!!! Let’s gooooo!!!
4, 3, 2, 1 TETRIS!!!!
Will there be same piece sets in this mode?
On Twitter, Greentea said that both players will have the same piece sets.
Can you still play at a high level in this version??
Of course I’m Green Tea baybee!!
7:19 I know someone else is playing across from the tv, but I like to think that he’s holding the controller in one hand playing while he’s talking to the camera
Wow I knew that Green Tea was a developper, but I didn't knew that he worked on Tetris Effect !
My most important question id : How does the randomness of the two players work ? Do they have the same pieces both ?
Yes, both have the same pieces in both classic and modern score attack modes.
isn't it been the same piece layout between players even back in Tetris Battle or something?
10:26 I haven't played a game since Puyo Puyo Tetris but oh my god, you can hard drop into a T-spin now? If this game had a Steam page I'd wishlist it, but I guess they haven't even gotten that far yet since all evidence points to this just being announced days ago.
It’s coming to Steam mid next year, it’s currently included in Xbox GamePass for PC.
It's not a hard drop, the speed is fast enough that the piece appears on the ground and you have a split second to move it around before it settles. Watch the other pieces and you'll see that they all look like they're getting hard dropped, but there's some movement still
@@RobinClower Ah. To be fair, I'm so used to watching top-level Tetris players place things with inhuman speed, and the fact there's now a speed setting that causes everything to appear on the bottom in 0 frames is news to me anyway.
Greentea is too awesome
i hope they add this in the ctwc at least as a side event
if u ever want to make someone smile just send them a picture of green tea
This is the first time I have ever heard of Greentea’s voice...
same, he sounds so pure lol
But will your settings match u up against other people with the same settings in ranked? Cause I don’t really want to have classic rng playing against 7 bag.
My guess is that ranked matches are not allowed to change rules
I can see it being that ranked games have same rng and casual mode(if there is one) is customizable
"We got impressed by the CTWC"
The Obama giving himself a medal meme would be perfect here
Are the opponent pieces synced like on tournament cartridges? If so, is there an option to disable it?
Does anyone compete with Tengen (Atari) Tetris, since that that built in 2 player?
Has greentea always worked for enhance or did they bring him on for this dlc?
Is this gonna be played in tournaments now
Ayyy greentea
Great informative video in terms of the mechanics. It's just a shame that this is being held back from PSVR and other non Microsoft platforms. I've read that in summer 2021 everyone platform will get it but I can't see anything official.
I've been looking at purchasing a copy of the original Tetris Effect game for a while but will now be putting it off until I can find out the full information when and where this add on will be available.
Stand User: Tomohiro Tatejima
Stand Master: GreenTea
9:08 are these helper settings saved when playing against strangers or for friend/local matches only?
I doubt it will be saved for online matches, but maybe they'll make a separate game mode for online matches that has some different settings
GREEENNTTTEEEAAAA!!!! HELLOOO!!! HIII!!!! 🙋🏽♂️
Mkay, I think I'm gonna buy Tetris Effect.
It's sad that PSVR is mentioned in the video, but there's no mention of a PS4 update for Connected. As someone who owns the PS4 version of Tetris Effect I guess this wont be coming to that version?
Yes it will, PS4 will be getting a Connected update mid next year.
Wait what controller do you play on
What if there was a way to make it so the player in the lead for score must change every 2 minutes or else the trailing player loses? That would put even more pressure for high scoring.
Can't wait to see the tiny details that they mess up and that the community gets mad about
this looks very cool but still waiting for steam version
How much is this game going to cost?
Just found out. 40 dollars American for a pre-order.
SCOUTTTTTT
6:10 I wonder if the “LFSR” that green tea mentioned is a linear feedback shift register.
yes it is
@@aGameScout I’m impressed you and green tea both know what LFSRs are. I didn’t learn about them until I was deep into an electrical engineering degree. They definitely aren’t common knowledge.
@@chrisray1567 I first heard of it while reading about NES game programming 🙂
is there a way to change the settings in online mode? starting at level 5 by default is annoying
it appears that you have to level yourself up to be able to play higher levels
I love green tea's english.
11:08 and what about PS? Was going to buy a PS5 just for an old good Tetris but haven't noticed any announcements about TE Connected being available there. The only rumor I saw was that TE Connected will be kind of a DLC for a plain TE which is available there at the moment.
Playing connected to day
Hey do a followup later on how to play as ”authentic” as possible. How to use a nes controller etc :)
There are good USB replicas with PC/Mac/Linux support.
yep that's pretty much all you need, or you can get a $10 adapter if you already have an NES controller
@@aGameScout I've checked out, the current version in EGS supports only DS4 and Xbox original pads + x360ce v4 with bugs, so only Steam version would suit everyone..
@@chupasaurus The most dedicated will be wanting an as authentic experience as possible. Which a replica cant reproduce, i was referring to all settings and hardware that one would need or have to change to get it as close as possible to a real nes.
