Maybe Microsoft really knows what they are doing in Japan afterall.
No matter, we can still make fun of them.

Damn another console generation and Tetris is still going strong. That game just never gets old.

Cheapy how is the EA thing voer there? Is or have you heard of any backlash that ever developed?

I am guessing not as its a US company but just curious.

Tetris is definitely one of the best (if not the best) games of all time. In 50 years when games like Halo and OoT are absolutely laughable and virtually unplayable due to contemporary standards and super-advanced technology, people will still be playing Tetris.

Does Tetris 360 cost the same as the other games?

I would almost assume that the Japanese bought Tetris just because there was no other game besides Ridge Racer that they wanted. Most people like to pick up more than one game with their new system and Tetris seems like a pretty safe bet.

I wonder how Every Party is selling?
