Technically, Tetris DS doesn’t have an ending. After you’ve cleared 200 lines one time (in the Standard mode), you get that funky ending thing, but that’s not where the game “ends.” Instead, you unlock “endless” mode where you can continue to clear lines beyond 200. My personal record in Tetris DS is somewhere around 340 lines, though I know people that can go further than that.
That’s crazy! I’m surprised your eyeballs don’t fall out! 😯
The endless mode is hard! I only made it 400 and I too have known retro-game fans who have made it much higher.
Oh and in regards to significant others getting into video games, Susanne isn’t much of a gamer, but she does watch me play. The only game that she did get into was Animal Crossing: Wild World and that was largely because it was a total no-pressure kind of “game.” There’s no score, no time limit, no real goal or objective. I imagine she’d probably like “games” like the Sims too.
Sure Nick, Mami may have gaming skills… but does she have the skills to pay the bills???
We will find out. I’m helping her build her first website! 😉
I haven’t played Tetris for well over 10 years, now. When the original GameBoy was out, that was almost all I would play, though. Mario is another winner, but I stopped playing those games soon after I entered college 😕
As for Reiko … well … she’s not much of a gamer. I don’t see her get angry very often at things, but video games can put her over the edge very quickly.
