Seriously, I mean, what the hell? ;D

The marketing is disgraceful. I could just see some Homer Simpson-like character thinking mmm... pie.

I actually typed out the box back of Tetris last night on NintendoAGE. I keep thinking who the hell wrote this?

I wish I had ten hands regardless; :D then I could type, use a mouse, a gamepad, & shift gears at the same time. But I don't see how that would help in Tetris. :P

I was actually referring to the Tengen version; I don't see anything wrong with Nintendo's.

Hey, I have a cool idea. Why doesn't somebody post a link to the Tengen version?
