    Default Tetris

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Super-Rare-Tetri...item483c5eb966

    Is this the real deal, and if it is isn't it worth a lot more?

    I agree. IIRC Japanese MD games didn't use that style of case for ANY games released over there.

    Think you answered your own question. It's a ridiculously overpriced Chinese bootleg - nice to see with a case, I guess, but $500? Crazies.

    Whats funny is how Tetris started out as a soviet computer science students project, and then turned into a patent encumbered moneymaking beast.

    That's a bootleg. However, even the bootleg can usually cost up to a couple hundered dollars. The original is the extreme deal, but even the bootleg costs a bit of money.


    I've appreciated movies more than any party I've ever been to, any time I've masturbated, any music I've ever listened to, any girl I've ever loved, any game I've ever played, any food I've ever eaten, any tv-series I've ever seen, any trip I've ever done and any life I've ever lived.

    I always figured Columns was the Genesis version of Tetris.

    And the one who made the least money was the creator himself. How ironic.
