This year, the 5th annual Classic Tetris European Championship was held in Copenhagen, Denmark. The Gameboy head-to-head side event was intense right up to the final piece! With commentary by Alex Telon, Jonas Neubauer, and Heather Ito.
In the 1990 Nintendo World Championship competition, Tetris was the game to beat. The winner, Thor Aackerlund, is still seen by many as the best to have ever played. Today’s Classic Tetris tournaments are played on that same version of Nintendo Tetris, using original NES game systems, controllers, and Tetris cartridges. In 2009, a player named Harry Hong became the first to achieve the highest possible score of 999,999 points. Inspired by this achievement, filmmaker Adam Cornelius produced a short film about Harry called “Max-Out”, and launched a Kickstarter campaign to document the world of competitive Tetris. As word of Adam’s Kickstarter campaign spread, rumors of max-out scores from other Tetris Masters began to surface, threatening the supremacy of Harry’s achievement. With the help of Nintendo World Championship veteran Robin Mihara, Adam searched for all of the Tetris Masters he could find. Jonas Neubauer emerged as an early max-out artist, along with the elusive original champ Thor Aackerlund. The idea of bringing these and other NES Tetris Masters together to compete in a live tournament became an obvious and irresistible proposition which was artfully captured in the 2010 feature length documentary Ecstasy of Order: The Tetris Masters. Under the leadership of producer Vince Clemente, The Classic Tetris World Championship is currently held at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, an annual event which has hosted the tournament since 2012. Chuck Van Pelt and his organizing committee have built the PRGE into the largest classic gaming expo in the country, drawing around 6,000 attendees. Every year the scores get higher. Rivalries are revisited once again, and new players emerge to challenge the old guard. Over 30 players have maxed out the score now. Will you be the next? ecstasyoforder.com thectwc.com

I have a feeling that the GB Tetris scene is going to blow up with the new online multiplayer dongle.
Dang, that was more nerve wracking then point based vs matches lol. Would love to see more of this
I did not know this is a thing. Apparently this is a thing!
Is that Jonas commentating? It sounds a lot like him.
3:20
Seeing that screen with Mario and Luigi really takes me back I haven’t seen that since the 90s
Steve Wozniak should compete in this
Very cool format. Would love to see it as a side show at CTWC
A first GAMEBOY tournament for me
really loved how alex moved his head when it got spicy! i d love to see more of those gameboy tetris games. they are fast and furious. :D
Maaan I miss Jonas
It was so hype. And I think you can see me in the crowd there
That was a great performance. Also, the crowd was great!
JJs fighting back for the first two round saves was so tension inducing.
This was actually awesome
I wanna see more of this.
The "garbage" helps the opponent by giving them an already setup tetris well.
As someone who doesn't know what Tetris is, how did Alex win?
How was the GB screen footage recorded?
Very cool. I've played "vs Tetris" on the Gameboy like twice in my life. I would love to participate in such a competition, even though I propably would go out 0-4 in the first round. :D
