The iconic original Game Boy version is missing. :-(

a crime if true. The article says that it “will include ‘more than 15’ playable games from the series’ history”, and they only list 9 in the article and trailer, so maybe it will be one of the versions not listed?

Looks like I was spreading misinformation once again. From their official website: www.digitaleclipse.com/games/tetrisforever there is a screenshot from the GB version: …website-files.com/…/66ccd3a3b7bac97b72db3979_tet…

Not to burst your bubble, but that is a screenshot of the “Time Warp” mode from the trailer. Although if they built the GB style into that mode, maybe that is promising for getting the actual GB game in the collection?

This may be true after all since Nintendo owns the Tetris license and this could be competition for switch online so perhaps they didn’t want to agree to the full GB version

But they have the NES / Famicom version of Tetris, which is owned by Nintendo too. Unless they mean the infamous Tengen / Atari version on NES (some say its better, but there were legal trouble because of Nintendo).
