Tetris (2023) - Its called 'The Gameboy'

"Henk god damn Rogers" is certainly a line of all time

I was moving out of my house a few weeks back and found my old gameboy colour behind some shelves, the thing still works and would you knew it the cartridge was tetris.

Is this movie on dvd ?

Just like Roller Coaster Tycoon, Sim City, and Minecraft eh!

I am glad that Tetris became a biopic movie about licensing agreements between the USA and the Soviet Union. There are some inaccuracies, but it felt real to us. 10/10 Would play Tetris again

I cant stop watching this clip. It's just that good

I remember when watching this scene, despite seeing it in the trailer I was like experiencing a holy vision from the Heavens

The hours of game play I put into my old Gameboy throughout my childhood and into my adulthood. I never stopped playing it, the games, the memories, this scene gives me a smile and a tear of nostalgia to my eye.

The game boy was the first of it kind in home entertainment no one had ever thought a video game something that by this time had only been to game consoles an arcade an pc a hand held game was something out of this world

My mom has never been a gamer. Literally the only game she ever played was Tetris on the gameboy and she was addicted.

My Uncle Did had the OG Gameboy But he got it from a yard sale in 1998 and it was used. But it did come with tetris when he got it at 10 years old in 98. So yeah hes not that much of an OG gameboy player (if im right) also My uncle Was born in 1988 and year before the Gameboy was released in North America and gaming didnt get to him until 1992 or 1993. And the SNES was his first console before the Gameboy

I know this feels like an extreme dramatization but as a kid, this is exactly what it felt like when the gameboy launched. alien technology.

Oh this was super cool! Such a revolutionary point in gaming history. The development and release of the Game Boy! Along with the most sold popular puzzle game Tetris! It proved a long time ago to this day, everybody loves puzzle games!

Wait this movie actually ended up coming out ?

Then pokemon came out and shit was A WRAP.

Only thing that bothers me in this scene is the little bit of Mario Land music followed by the death music.

I had received 3 gameboys in my life from various people, One as a gift from my dad, one as a hand me down from my uncle, and one as a give away from a friend. All theee had Tetris. And im talking about the original gameboy from the 80s or 90s im not sure when it came out.

the score is so gooddd

I remember getting my OG Gameboy. We got three games with it and Tetris was one of them. I swear that game rewrote something in my brain because I quickly ignored the other two games. It wasn’t until Pokemon came out that I cared about any other Gameboy game

The music sells it.

Really wish i can travel back time to this moment to show them ours latest games in 2024 🤔

8-bit graphics, 4.19 MHz and 8kb of RAM was considered highly advanced and impressive for its time.

To put it into perspective, my custom PC has a Ryzen 5 5600X with max speed of 4.5 GHz and 32 GB of RAM with a Radeon RX 6600 (28 ray accelerators, 8 GB VRAM, GDDR6, 128-bit interface)

Other people have better specs than I

The birth of the gaming industry.

This is the most romanticized depiction of the gameboy I’ve ever seen. They’re acting like it’s the second coming of Christ. It was revolutionary, but not that revolutionary

Lol its so wack that ppl would be more excited about tetris than mario

We never know how valuable something is until later.
We had 2 of these , my dad got one for himself too, oh the nostalgia 😢

I finally got one and it works

I have a back lit game boy and I recently got my Japanese copy of Tetris the other day, I'm hooked on Tetris.

This really is a superbly constructed scene.

I'm starting to see Playstation is buying GTA 6 bundle. Nintendo is making new console; they are looking special bundle rather than using Mario. Mario is their secret project they don't want to release together. I think Nintendo will bundle new pokemon. pokemon is still popular trading card. Could pokemon suppress GTA 6 sales. don't know. maybe...

So it's coded in C, would the Arduino IDE or Codeblocks in a modern PC allow me to program anything on the original Gameboy?

the pinnacle of 1980s technology in the palm of our hands.

Dayum! He rewrote the C code to fit it in a Z80 Assembly Device in a few minutes.

I've experienced playing on the original Gameboy but I prefer the Gameboy Pocket's screen. The green screen on the Gameboy is uncomfortable on the eyes for me.

What’s that sound please 🙏🏼

No one really realizes how CRAZY seeing a gameboy was in 1989. Growing up as video games grew has been one of the coolest life experiences

I dont know why...

I know I'm just looking at a gameboy.

But I feel like I'm looking at an f22✨️

That face that he shows and emotion is how I felt when I first got my gameboy.

It is ludicrous that Henk ports/programs the the entire shipping version of Game Boy Tetris during a brief pause in their conversation. I think that even the most non-technical casual movie goer will chuckle knowing that game production takes weeks and years to complete.

Tetris is the game that made adults took back what's supposed to be their kids Christmas presents because they themselves couldn't stop playing it.

Okay, so where can you watch this movie

I still have and modded my gameboy advance SP i love that thing man.

Dose anyone know the music that is playing?

After watching this Film Tetris, I got my old Nintendo Game Boy out, and started playing Tetris again. 😂 Still one of the GOAT games on the OG Nintendo Game Boy. 😎

Gives me shivers every time he says "it's called the Game Boy" 😬😬😬

So, when will the inventor of Tetris ever make the money that he deserves?

I still wanna see this movie lol

Howard Lincoln is one of the reasons Nintendo became such a litigious company. He's pretty much the sole reason why I dont buy Nintendo consoles anymore.

That, and Im sick of playing the same Mario and Zelda games over and over.
