Tetris Party Deluxe is coming.

 

Suprised it's taken this long to see casual friendly Tetris arrive on Wii, in actual physical form of course! I thought this did pretty well on WiiWare, but I'm guessing there is still a large % of the Wii market who are unaware of the service.Wonder how much extra features this will have compared to the WiiWare version. Doubt there will be much change in the single player area, but online was very limited in the WiiWare version, but Wii Speak support is great news, and should mean that we'll be seeing 4 player action.

 

If you've allready got the WiiWare version will you be buying?

Compatible with Wii speak? lol imagine the trash talk...

 

Player 1 - 'lolol I really bricked you up good there!'

Player 2 - 'block off!'

 

:p

Surely anything is compatible with the wheel, it's just a big chunk of plastic after all.

 

By that logic they could put "compatible with a chicken sandwich" on the front.

 

Still, this could actually be a very enjoyable party game, rotating blocks by twisting the wii remote and then slamming down to bring it home.

 

That said, no Tetris game has ever been better than the original Gameboy game, although Tetris DS came damn close to recapturing that magic.

To quote Excitebots...

 

SUPER SANDWICH!! 10 STARS!!

 

But woah, WiiSpeak! It would be awesome if it wasn't just used for online, and was an actual mode.

 

You could shout to play tetris! ''LEFT, LEFT, SPIN, RIGHT, DROP!''

The factsheet was revealed yesterday (see below). You may be right about Wii Speak control, but it could just be the way it's worded in the statement. If there was online chat wouldn't they have mentioned that in the Nintendo Wi-Fi point, instead of the new way's to play point?

 

 

HONOLULU, HI, Feb 17, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Tetris Online, Inc. (http://www.tetrisonline.com) today announced the upcoming release of "Tetris® Party Deluxe" for both Wii and Nintendo DS, set to hit retail shelves in North America this June.

I have the Wiiware version of this - is pretty good fun, but I doubt I'll pick up the physical form version. The balance board mode wasn't the greatest either, slightest movement would sometimes result in fucking everything up!

God, the guy playing sucks. But no, I won't pick this up. The balance board mode is not what keeps me playing this and although it might be a slightly better Tetris experience, I already play too much Tetris.
