Looking forward to the collection. Hopefully there is a physical edition!

This is an awesome announcement. Lots of cool versions of the game on here and a documentary to go along with it. Then to top it off with the nes version of tetris and a 40th anniversary for tetris 99 later this winter. What a great way to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the series.

Seeing NES Tetris is coming to NSO later this year put a big smile on my face. It's my favorite version and I've been wanting it on NSO since the beginning.

Are you kidding me, MORE Tetris!? Everyone complains/memes about the farming games, but there is an incredibly excessive amount of Tetris games on Switch

Spoiler

...and I am here for it. Day one!

Ah Bombliss the best variation on Tetris ever created, a shame that basically they stopped doing, this reminds there is any modern puzzle game similar to it?

 

[BlackthornOrion]

i really dig the "playable documentary" angle of Digital Eclipse's recent collections, so despite already having like 3 ways to play Tetris just on Switch, I'm in

 

[Jahranimo]

Hearing that little bit of NES Tetris gave a burst of nostalgia whoa.

 

[Pineapple Pizza]

2nd best announcement after Castlevania. A big slice of video game history in one very polished package. I love Tetris despite not being particularly great at it.

 

[Shadow]

Tetris 2? Tetris 2!? I never thought I'd ever see that be re-released in my life.

 

[bixente]

Digital Eclipse are doing a wonderful job with these releases.

 

[SiG]

This is nice, but would be nicer if it included Tetrisphere.

Yes, I know the game started out as "Phere" and Tetris and the mascot robots were tacked on, but the music man...

 

[Mandos]

Give me Tetris Plus 1/2, Tetrisphere and Wetrix!

L

 

[KilgoreWolfe]

This was one of the highlights for me. I loved Atari 50, and this is basically that but with games I actually enjoy playing lol.

the official description says it has 15 games, which honestly feels like just scratching the surface in terms of historically notable titles.

More than 15 playable classic games from the series' history are featured, including many being released for the first time outside Japan.

the Nintendo titles (Game Boy and NES) are unfortunately out of the question despite the GB port obviously being the most well-known version worldwide, though they're at the very least on NSO.

SEGA's stuff, with their Arcade version likely being the most famous version in Japan. miraculously managed to get a PS2 collection with a similar level of quality as this. even including the extremely rare Mega Drive port that was hastily pulled after Nintendo got exclusivity rights.

and there's a ton of spin-offs beyond Hatris they could add, with the most wild example being the Game Boy port of Wordtris. as it's developer went on to become PRESIDENT OF ARMENIA (really).

from what i can tell. the current line-up seems to entirely focus on titles developed by Bullet Proof Software. which is the team that would eventually evolve into the modern-day Tetris Company.

Max Dood seems to be really excited for this!!
