Just started watching, but I'm already super impressed by the beautiful presentation and editing! 👏
What an incredible video - so informative and well done! Very deep analysis!
this tgm stuff seems pretty cool, maybe I'll give it a try some time :p
TGM1 and 2 recently received Switch ports!
@@Kurzov homie you're talking to switchpalacecorner, a prominent figure in the community
I LOVE TGM
I LOVE ABSOLUTELY FUCKING STUPID TIME LIMITS THAT PREVENT YOU FROM CONTINUING THE GAME PAST A CERTAIN POINT
I've practiced TGM3 a whole lot. Although I did remove the exam conditions in my clone game (not the real game) I got two GM ratings eventually.
And the main part is not as hard as you think. Just score many Tetrises, follow the COOL/REGRET conditions and bam. Invisitetris.
I really enjoyed this video! Great explanation and overview.
Nice editing. I hope that more people find your channel.
Excellent docu, c'est la 2e fois que je le regarde...
Ca change de ton passage sur Nolife de l'époque 🤯
Continue comme ca !
The best Tetris indeed. I'm GM in TGM1 and M in TGM2.
Amazing video! Thank you! I always assumed it was a game made to troll players, not realizing it was in response to the question "how do we go past 20G?"
Releasing 3 games (and in the arcades no less, where the operator ROI is paramount) , just to troll players would be a pretty ballsy move :).
But anyway it proves that whatever hobby you have, there's bound to be an extreme version of it somewhere.
Amazing breakdown of the game mechanics! Hope more people see this awesome video 🎉
Magnificent documentary! Thank you.
this video is incredible!
Awesome video
Lovely video … I enjoyed it a lot 😊
great video! i didn't understand a lot of tgm but i've been always interested on the game, this video it's a masterpiece
Thanks for th ekind comment !
Super vidéo, la présentation est excellente :D (et content de voir un autre fan de TGM francophone)
Je revendique ma place de fan de la première heure :) #nolife-tv_forever
good video I just downloaded the second game on my switch
Great Vid!
Excellent video. Me personally, I would have placed the J piece upside down all the way on the right to take the double at 17:44. I think that's the best play on D+. And considering you got an S piece right after the square block, it would have been the best play in my eyes. What you did is probably the best for master mode though.
Great video, thank you!
nice vid!
Too bad the NES Tetris community is centered around the most mid Tetris game on the NES/Famicom. (I'm mostly poking fun, but I'm a bit confused as why that one of all versions has recently become the standard "old Tetris".)
Personally I'd consider most of what's under the Nintendo branch to be the BPS branch (which eventually became modern Guideline/SRS Tetris). While the actual Nintendo branch consists of Nintendo NES Tetris, Gameboy Tetris and Dr. Mario & Tetris, and basically died out after that.
Sega Tetris also split from the Spectrum Holobyte/Mirrorsoft branch (and Mirrorsofts' non-IBM versions might be considered their own branch). But that's getting a bit into the weeds.
The Atari branch was also another notable branch that got killed off.
Thanks for the input. As a 90s kids I never reaaallly paid attention to the early Tetris games, and having just 2 branches was better for the narration (or really just introducing the concept of a Tetris family tree). What was special about the Atari brancv ?
TGM has the best sound effects and Tetramino textures in my opinion. I dislike the glossy and reflective texture in the newer Tetris games. The music in TGM is really intense, it makes the game feel faster than it is
The sound gimmick is certainly an unmistakable signature of the series (see Tecnitix's TGM in the bottle). I think to glossy tetramino's in PPTis there more match Puyo Puyo's esthetics than anything else.
31:00 Shirase is a reference to the name of a character from Street Fighter EX, another game from Akira.
...maybe ? I mean fine she's the evil persona of a normally calm and composed person (Hokuto -> Shirase, similar to Ryu -> Evil Ryu), but by no mean Master mode would be a calm and composed mode.

SM as in stepmania?
