I can't believe I'm going to spend $360 to play a Tetris that's not even TGM tomorrow.

Good luck finding a switch. Idk if they're still rare

Oh hmm, looks like they might be. I just assumed they'd be available by now.

Maybe I'll have to use my brother's.

Love how quick and easy it is to get into matches. VS mode is my favorite online mode so far.


didn't realize how poo poo i am at tetris until now. this one dude beat me using some weird rear end technique
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLjDkQutRrA

Four-wide center-well combo setup is the most powerful technique in the game. Or at least it is in Tetris Friends, I'm not sure how the combo tables and garbage blocking balance out in this version.

I removed every mode except versus from my ranked match finder thing. Swap was the last to stick around but when I have to play puyo at all it makes me even more likely to lose to someone with a rating way lower than mine. I haven't started dodging players I know will beat me though, that would be lame.

The Tetris Company mandates that all officially licensed games have a t-spin bonus. And if you make an unlicensed game they'll threaten to sue for trade dress violation.

Yeah but that requires, like, looking more than one step ahead.

I can do a 5-chain on purpose but still haven't figured out how to transition to the second floor. Also I always get impatient and set it off when it's only a 3-chain. At which point my opponent has already built their 6

dragon enthusiast posted:

there was one fun idea that the animevo TO came up with where puyo sent fusion mode garbage instead, cause that makes blocking garbage that stops things like t-spins

Fusion garbage without puyos on top is meaningless, because Tetris pieces make it disappear.
