    In 2019, ESPN 2 invited CTWC to produce a segment for "The Ocho." It was a watershed moment for Classic Tetris, bringing in thousands of new fans through a major cable network appearance. This is the segment that was produced as it originally aired, split into three parts.
    We realize most of this is game tape that has already appeared on our channel. However, there has been a ton of demand to see the segment from those in the community who did not have access to ESPN 2. So here it is for all those who are curious about the first Tetris tournament seen on national television!

    In the 1990 Nintendo World Championship competition, Tetris was the game to beat. The winner, Thor Aackerlund, is still seen by many as the best to have ever played. Today’s Classic Tetris tournaments are played on that same version of Nintendo Tetris, using original NES game systems, controllers, and Tetris cartridges. In 2009, a player named Harry Hong became the first to achieve the highest possible score of 999,999 points. Inspired by this achievement, filmmaker Adam Cornelius produced a short film about Harry called “Max-Out”, and launched a Kickstarter campaign to document the world of competitive Tetris. As word of Adam’s Kickstarter campaign spread, rumors of max-out scores from other Tetris Masters began to surface, threatening the supremacy of Harry’s achievement. With the help of Nintendo World Championship veteran Robin Mihara, Adam searched for all of the Tetris Masters he could find. Jonas Neubauer emerged as an early max-out artist, along with the elusive original champ Thor Aackerlund. The idea of bringing these and other NES Tetris Masters together to compete in a live tournament became an obvious and irresistible proposition which was artfully captured in the 2010 feature length documentary Ecstasy of Order: The Tetris Masters. Under the leadership of producer Vince Clemente, The Classic Tetris World Championship is currently held at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, an annual event which has hosted the tournament since 2012. Chuck Van Pelt and his organizing committee have built the PRGE into the largest classic gaming expo in the country, drawing around 6,000 attendees. Every year the scores get higher. Rivalries are revisited once again, and new players emerge to challenge the old guard. Over 100 players have maxed out the score now. Will you be the next? ecstasyoforder.com thectwc.com

    JOSEPH "I CAME INTO THIS TOURNAMENT JUST TO QUALIFY" SAELEE versus JONAS " THE G.O.A.T" NEUBAUER in the FINALS

      @Arek152 Před 4 lety +1

      Right. Now Joseph is two times champion, multiple monthly champion, and multiple world record holder in different categories but somehow I will always remember him as a guy that "came just to qualify" :)

      GreenTea and Joseph got double kill screen in the first game, though. And... double maxout happened.

      We had three incredible occurrences in the same series.
      1. Double kill screen
      2. First ever live maxout
      3. First ever double maxout
      Joseph vs GreenTea was good enough to be the damn finals, you can't write it better than that.
