This reminds me heavily of TetriNet for some reason. And I do mean heavily. Regardless, I'm starting to find reason to buy a Nintendo DS, I guess. At this point, I'd rather get a PSP if only for Rockman Rockman, Irregular Hunger X, and Goku Makai Mura(Extreme Ghosts 'n Goblins), but still... The DS is not without its own ringers.(Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow is the only one I'm really, really interested in at this point, though. XD Maybe Final Fantasy III DS when it finally comes out...)
Edit: Gimme a Gameboy Mono Tetris theme for the game and I'll totally buy Tetris DS. :x

Nice surprise. I'm looking forward to the online play and the Nintendo themes are a very nice touch indeed. Gotta love these shadow releases.

The second image looks as though 10 people can play. I hope that's online.

You can play up to 10 people on local wireless only. Online can only have 2-4 players.

I need something to replace my GB Tetris - this looks like it will be it.
Very cool looking.

Every Nintendo handheld system should be required to have some version of Tetris, just like every main console is required to have a Mario game. I'm just a little disappointed they aren't calling it "Touch-ris."

We never did see a Gameboy Advance version of Tetris, did we? Or was that like... Tetris Worlds? Still, the VirtualBoy didn't have one, I know that! ...unless it had "Blockout" or whatever that 3D Tetris game was called. Then I'm just stumped. T_T;

I do believe that Nintendo has done Tetris proud once more. If I had a DS, I'd totally want this game, and then some.

Even Yoshi's Cookie!? Cool.
