A little recent history: Awhile back, the Tetris Microcard came out. This had a B/W OLED screen and ran for about $60.

​

​

This price tag was less than tasteful, but fast forward a bit and a new company takes the reigns. I saw that there was a colored LCD version for only $20! I wanted to see reviews of it, but almost all of them were made by less-than-great tetris players. I wanted to know if it had SRS, and if it was anything close to modern tetris, which is my preferred game.

​

To say the least, it's not modern tetris. It seems that it has some wall kicks, so you can always rotate no matter how far left or right you are, but that's about it, it seems. I was able to do normal t-spins, but anything else didn't seem to work quite right. I'm not sure how I would go about analyzing the game to see what works and what doesn't in terms of the rotation system, so if anyone wants to help me out with that so we can get more data on this thing, that would be great!

​

As for the rest of the game, I'm quite impressed. The buttons actually feel amazing, extremely clicky, firm and quick. There's music and then sound effects after the song plays, with three volume settings (off, half and full volume). The display looks great with hardly any fuzz, as well as impressive viewing angles for its price. There are some draw backs though. There's no ghost piece or matrix grid, so harddropping can feel like a gamble at times. The high scores are not saved between reboots either. Although I haven't experienced it yet, I've heard the plastic is pretty soft, so it easily scratches. To mitigate this, I placed a piece of packing tape over the display.

​

Overall, I'm pretty happy with this toy, but I wouldn't call it a way to practice doing advanced techniques, just good ol' build up and downstack. I'll come back with an edit discussing battery life and other long term usage questions. If anyone has any questions, I'll be more than happy to answer them, and even go as far as uploading video or photos of me doing particular things with it, if anyone is curious.

It depends how much money you're willing to spend.

Are you okay with emulation? If so, you might want a stick like this or this one with Sanwa parts, and use a monitor that you already have.

​

I don't really know much about getting the daughter board for the ZN-2 motherboard (maybe someone else can help out with that), but check out these sites for the ZN-2 motherboard:

​

This YouTube video shows all the games that you could get with the ZN-2 motherboard itself.

​

If you are also okay with playing the original board on (preferrably) a CRT, you will need a JAMMA supergun. You can find those on eBay fairly easily.

​

If you want to play on a cabinet, you will need to find a candy cabinet. Again, I am not well-versed in this and don't know much about finding these, but check out this video about candy cabs from KevinDDR for more about them.

Your list is very much lacking in the Puyo Puyo Tetris department. It's kind of expensive at ~$60 but it's a lot of fun, and yes, you can play it on any region Vita without any trouble, the menus aren't too complicated and there's people that have translated them.

I personally use the Pokken Controller for games with a D-pad, including tetris. I think it's a great controller and of all the options for a dpad on switch I really enjoy this one. I agree with you and the other guy about the pro controller d-pad, unfortunately it really does just suck lmao. Here's a link the pokken controller, hope you find what you're looking for! https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01A6LEXFK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

There's only really been one book like this afaik and it's targeted towards NES Tetris players. Tricks of the Classic NES Tetris Masters

Other guides have been included in magazines, so maybe looking up archives would yield some stuff, but I'm guess it's very basic stuff. Another place to look is in old game manuals, when people actually put work into those.

Finally I believe there are three japanese guidebooks for some older tetris games.

Maybe if you tell us what version you're interested in we can point you to some good online resources.

If you mean that you picked up an original NES controller and a USB adapter (like this one) for it then you could take it apart and clean it. I recently bought an original NES controller and had to clean mine before it would work properly. The dpads were very unresponsive when I first used it, but they're good as new now.

If it's not an authentic Nintendo NES controller then it's probably just poorly made and there's nothing you can do.

It is a little big but it works. I ordered a different one from Ali express. If it is great I will post it here.

You may be able to find a better price elsewhere, however this is what it looks like.

I have two of these and they die very quickly.

I made special effort to look after my second one and it still ended up having most of the non heat change stuff come off after I think 3 months.

They also can't go in a dishwasher due to this.

Generally I've found the offical tetris merchandise pretty lackluster...

  • Fridgemagnets - Terrible, almost no magneticness to them, fronts peel off too easily
  • Tetris light - Great concept but flickers and is super annoying, impossible to use as an actual light.
  • Tetris mug - Doesn't last
  • Ice cube trays - The unoffical ones are much bigger/better/solidly made/make more cubes

    Now tetris link, there is a good tetris related product! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tetris-Link-9450-Board-Game/dp/B004OBZROA Although I certainly wouldn't pay £30 for it!

    The tetris company frustrate me. There could be WAY better tetris merch. THIS and their inability to make the ultimate tetris game frustrates.

This is the one I use, but any av to usb would work.

You do need one splitter at least for the video to go to both the crt and the capture card. You can just have the sound from the TV (that's what I have on my stream) or you can do another splitter like in the drawing above.

I use the SF30 Pro (Also called SN30 Pro) when playing PPT on Switch.

The SN30 Pro+ will be released soon which add grips, analog triggers, and control customization through PC software.

Both of these have 4 modes: X-Input, D-Input, Switch, and MacOS.

u/CrazyCrackers14 · 3 pointsr/Tetris

I'm going to need to know where to buy this.

Edit: Found it

It's also got two large "paddle" buttons on the back of the grips that you can remap to any other button (no macros). So you can put hard drop on one of those, if you don't like using up on the d-pad, for example.
