Tetris® Ultimate Coming To PS4, Xbox One & PC

[Nathan Drake]

Excuse me while I sit here laughing at the fact that they won't even bother putting Tetris on the Wii U.

 

[Gahars]

Sounds like the Wii U got blocked.

*notices Wii U isn't mentioned*
I can KINDA understand some argument about market shares versus that little bit of extra development effort required to port to PPC (although I really dobt something like this would NEED processor-specific optimizations) but don't tell me the Wii U's hardware just can't handle this.

I was thinking the same thing. Some games I can understand skipping the Wii U, but Tetris? Freaking seriously?

While we're at it, I can't imagine why this would skip PS3 and 360, either.

Oh, well. I do plan to get a PS4 anyway, so this is one more game to get for it upon buying.

It isn't that surprising. At this point, developers are going to start phasing out the last gen hardware. We can expect releases at the least periodically for the next couple of years, but with the PS4 and One around, Sony and Microsoft are both likely eager to shift sales to their new consoles. I would imagine they're dissuading developers from making everything multiplat across the generations at this point.

Yeah I think Ultimate really belongs to the Nintendo DS game, that was awesome!

Tengen Tetris for the NES will always be my favorite.

Just goes to show what the third party thinks of the Wii U.

tetris BLITZ is better

 

[Hells Malice]

If they included the WiiU they would've cleared the line and then nobody would get it.
You were a noble sacrifice Nintendo.

Also if there's a 4pack on Steam, i'll grab it. Tetris is always fun with friends, even if I suck.

 

[p3rand0r]

Ubisoft is actually skipping nintendo on a family game?!......hemmm........

 

[Flame]

p1ngpong can play all the Tetris he wants in glorious HD.

 

[AsPika2219]

I loves TETRIS games forever!!!.....

 

[Satangel]

Oh most definitely will pick this up if it's on Steam, can't wait for those 4-packs :3

 

[Arras]

People actually liked Tetris? I thought people only played it because it was forced upon everyone who ever bought a Gameboy.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have become one of the best known games ever if nobody likes it.

Well, almost everyone had a Gameboy and every Gameboy came with the game, so it's bound to be well known. If not for it coming with my Gameboy as a youngster, I probably would have never known it existed or if I did, I certainly wouldn't have wanted to play it.

Tetris is a great and funny time killer, I always have a GB emulator handy for playing it on my phone.
(Better than these "casual" stuff released for mobiles, I am looking at you, Flappy Bird!)

By that logic Wii Sports should be considered a master piece.

My first experience with Tetris was Tetris on the NES. I never owned it on the Game Boy. Since then, the only times I've bought the game are a version for my first cell phone, and a while back, I picked up Tetris Axis for the 3DS.

 

[Sakitoshi]

First 1080p/60fps this gen game confirmed!

did you forget about MGS V Ground Zeroes?? even the xboned version runs at 1080p@60fps, without the dynamic weather but that's beside the point.

maybe you don't like tetris, but back in the day it was the system seller of the very first(AKA brick) Gameboy when came out.

That was mostly sarcastic
And MGS V Ground Zeroes is 720p on Xbone or was there setting to make it run 1080p? There was discussion on reddit where everyone tried to think was there any console games that would let you choose between graphics and frame rate and only 3DS games and Bioshock seemed to be only ones.

 

[Hyperstar96]

That's odd, they forgot to announce a Wii U version. Guess I won't be buying this.

 

[Lastly]

How ironic. Tetris (U)ltimate is not coming for the Wii (U)ltimate...
