Tetris (Famicom) Playthrough
A playthrough of Bullet-Proof Software's 1988 puzzle game for the Nintendo Famicom, Tetris.
The year prior to Nintendo's jumping on the Tetris bandwagon with the release of their classic NES ( • Tetris (NES) Playthrough [Nintendo ve... ) and Game Boy ( • Tetris (Game Boy) Playthrough - Ninte... ) versions of the Soviet-themed puzzler, BPS published a port of their own Tetris computer game for Nintendo's Famicom.
Nintendo's Tetris was actually based on BPS's version, but you'd never know it from playing the two side-by-side. They're both Tetris, sure, but they're remarkably different games, and with the upcoming Tetris Forever collection featuring this version of the game, I thought it would be fun to give this one a look.
So what's different? Well...
-There is no endless mode. BPS Tetris has six rounds made up of nine levels each. A level ends once you've cleared twenty-five lines, and the ending is shown upon clearing Round 5, Stage 9.
(It's basically the B-Type, before it was called B-Type.)
-Cutscenes (of Russian dancers, similar to the scenes in Tengen's NES Tetris) play at the end of each round
-Pieces can only be rotated in one direction
-Pieces can be hard-dropped, but there's no way to speed up the rate a piece falls at
-The A-button hard drops a piece, and down on the d-pad rotates it
-The backdrop and color scheme remains the same throughout the entire game
-The game runs on a "lives" system, so failure doesn't result in an instant game over
Even on the NES, BPS Tetris feels like an 80s PC game. The archaic design makes it seem much older than Nintendo and Tengen's games, but it's still Tetris, and it's still pretty good.
(So long as you can rewire your brain for the controls and block out the music, that is.)
