The Tetris Company, you good?

Update - December 2022

TGM1 has been released on the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation. I believe this article had a significant hand in making that happen.

You're literally sitting on a trilogy of games that people are willing to spend $1000 or more on each!1

People have been asking for a home port for decades, and it's already been canceled three times (TMG1 for PSX, TGM2 for PS2, and TGM-K for PSP). This time around there are rumors for a new home port announcement and it still hasn't happened 6 months later. That's right, an announcement has been delayed over six months and there's no indication that it will even happen.

Releasing a digital download for $60 for a game that is already done, requires so little effort, I cant see why it's taking so long.

Not only that, but a mostly complete fourth title has been teased since 2009, are you kidding me? We could've been on game 5 or 6 at this point. If this game ever comes out it'll have one of the longest development times for a video game ever. TTC, I know you like Guinness World Records, but not like this.


The Tetris Company, it's time to release the games, we've waited long enough.
