Magical Tetris is a neat spin on the classic formula but it's unfortunately pretty bad in single-player. The pentraminos that get sent to you as attacks can make your board impossible to work with in some scenarios and it can feel overly luck-based. Thankfully, standard Tetris is here too, so you can vibe out with the good atmosphere without worrying about the party game bull. Giving Pete a drum and bass final boss theme was also a great power move.

And oh yeah, the GBC version's cool too. I played that one as a kid and it had an adventure mode in place of the arcade mode, with some puzzle boards and things to collect. Neat little oddity.
