1990s Critics Review Tetris on NES and Tetris DX on Game Boy (Nintendo Switch Online)
98Oh Nintendo, you tricksters! Last week, when they announced that the Nintendo Entertainment System version of Tetris would be coming to the Nintendo Switch Online, we thought that as it. But here we have the great Alexey Pajitnov revealing that the December 12th update will also include Tetris DX, one of my favorite versions of the 40-year-old puzzle game. That’s cool news, but are either of these versions worth playing? To answer that question, I decided to flip through the pages of Electronic Gaming Monthly, Game Zone, Nintendo Power and more classic magazines to see what the critics said back when these games first came out. Get ready to experience a little bit of déjà vu in this puzzling episode of Nintendo Switch Online Review Crew.
