Tetris (Tengen)
In my quest to have every single black Tengen NES cart, I just got Tetris yesterday. It's good, except for two things.
#1 - Every 30 (or 50) lines, the action stops and tallies your score for singles, doubles, triples and Tetrises. That means if you have game over at 249 lines and got three Tetrises since 200 lines, it doesn't count!
Also, the break in action kind of makes me unprepared for where to put the next line. I really wish they could have programmed it to add to the score complete lines when they happen!
#2 - Controls are a bit wonky, at least on my controller. Like in my V-Tetris copy for the Virtual Boy, I've had some "I didn't mean to do that!" moments
Now, I only have 4 carts left until a complete collection. They are:
Alien Syndrome, Fantasy Zone, Road Runner and Shinobi.
If you have any of these you wouldn't mind giving up for some money, please PM me.
Also, I'm still working on Jack & the Beanstalk, trying to get the bugs in the first cutscenes under control. If my most recent version (jack21) fixes everything, then I'll continue work on level 3, programming in the dogs. After the dogs are done, then I'll program in the goose and harp. They will be in random rooms, so it will be different every time. Happy Holidays, everyone!
