What's the best version of Tetris to play?

>> No.3521784

>>3521772
Tetris 2, SNES

NES or Game Boy.

TGM or, more accessibly, nullpomino

gb and nes are important but by comparison, slow and boring

If you aren't playing the Tengen version, you're doing it wrong.

Tetris & Dr. Mario (SNES)

2-in-1 port of both games for SNES, features split-screen and in-depth options, based on the GB/NES versions of both (aka the best versions) with 16-bit graphics and sound quality

Don't forget the Mixed Match mode. I think no puzzle game did this with Tetris again until Puyo Puyo Tetris for 3DS, Wii U and PS Vita.

GB revision, other versions might have more features but that song is half the fun of Tetris.

I have an elliptical exercise machine that has a knockoff tetris and space invaders with controls on the handles. my favorite way to play and it's even blue and black like the old kyocera(sp?) phone I had that came with tetris

TGM1 and TGM2 are easily emulated with MAME. TGM3 has a really hard to operate port, so I'd just assume if you got deep enough to want to play that version, that you'd be interested in buying a board for a lot of dollars.

How is TGM not Tetris? I'm honestly curious, since it and Tengen Tetris have been my two favorite versions. I accept that there are differences in gameplay, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they are completely different games.

Puzzle fighter was better PvP against a human. You could use Dan and fight with an enormous handycap and it was extra meaningful when you beat them.

Magical drop 3 was 100% comfy puzzle solving in adventure or challenge mode.

my favorite version of tetris is the nintendo themed one on DS, but this is a retro thread, so in the realm of retro my favorite tetris is the NES one that OP posted a pic of.

If you're good Dan is actually really powerful. He only drops red, but does a ton of damage. If you're good at combo building you can wipe your opponent with a couple good chains. It seems super weird, but Dan is one of the easiest people to beat Akuma with.

Doesn't that suffer from input lag problems needed for fast screens? I ask only because of my experience with other CDI games, and can't imagine this being playable on higher levels.

On the go I'd say Tetris DX for the Game Boy Color. The controls are better and allow faster gameplay than the classic Game Boy version. If you have the Super Nintendo Tetris 3 is a good choice. And the best ones are the Tetris Grand Master games, they're the ultimate Tetris experience.

Yes CDI Tetris is all about relaxing and taking the edge off. Chill in drop out. In fact you should probably play it on emulator at 80% speed.
