Tetris DS! ... !!!

It's basically just what it sounds like. Once the block hits the bottom, you can continue rotating it to infinity. It won't set it down for good till you let it lay still for a second. Why this is a big deal is beyond me. I don't really see any abuse coming from it. I usually rotate line up my pieces near the top and smash them down to get the next one as quick as possible. That mode of play is almost necessary when you go online.

The whole rotating thing even seems to be something the game recognizes. I did it once by accident when frantically trying to line up a piece on a tall stack and once it settled into place a message came on the side of the screen saying "T-Spin!". I dunno if it gave me points or anything for it, I was preoccupied :D.

Interesting, so it's not a glitch, it's a FEATURE! :D Sounds neat, but I can think of an abuse right away. Spin away until your opponent can't keep up and loses, eh, eh?

Yes, a total classic mode would be nice, gameplay and all. This goes back to my one desire for any new Tetris game after this though. I want my Russian music! That is to say, all the music from the NES game, the Gameboy game, and the arcade game (each one had it's own selection of russian music, though there was some overlap), only this time they can actually get the music done by a professional orchastra and added into the game that way (with looping AND a speedier melody that it switches to, though getting the timing down "just so" for every possible sort of switch would be a bit different). That sort of classic mode would be the ultimate.

It would be nice to have some ultimate collection of every different Tetris game ever released under that name, from Tetris 2 to Tetris Blast to Tetrisphere, and a vs mode that involved the two players getting from one mode to the next and odd drop block situations that stem from that sort of thing :D.
