I love this game. I'm not a classic tetris fan and rented it years ago on a whim. My husband and I were instantly addicted. We bought the game and played it for hours and hours (we're talking 8 hr marathons sometimes) and it is by far our favourite.

Years later, we bought a gamecube and gave our 64 and games to my nephews ('01?). This year we were finally able to track down a copy of Tetrisphere and bought an old 64 system so we can play it again. It's so fun. The only downside is that I don't have the time to do 8-10hr marathons....(I miss the "A" imprints in my thumb!)

I HIGHLY recommend this game. It is my favourite for 2 players (and the single puzzle mode is fun too).

  CLASSIC!

Nintendo hit one out of the park in this remixed version of an old classic. Tetrisphere breaks all the boundries of 2-D and brings forward a world where there will no longer be a level 9 speed falling from top to bottom and no more trying to get those blasted "L" pieces to fit in awkward positions. You will now have to use your head more than your reflexes to unravel the mysteries of the tetrishpere. Major replayability, Major mulitplayer modes and Major fun all come together to make Tetrisphere an instant classic!

I bought this game for me. I don't play a lot of games but I like tetris. My oldest son bought this game and let me try it. After I played I had to have it. It was a good buy so I bought it. I have been very happy with the service and the quality of the games I have bought.

I have benn looking for this game about 6 years and the game stores just can't keep it stocked, so when I found it on ebay and was able to get it at such a good price I was thrilled. I now enjoy hours of play it's funny how games can bring the kid out in you no matter how old you are, my kids just wish I would share my game :)

  Greatest puzzle game ever made?
Review created: 12/27/09
by:

Is this the greatest puzzle game ever made? Perhaps, but there's no question that Tetrisphere it is the greatest Tetris game ever made. Although the game is great as a single player experience, it's the multiplayer vs. mode that makes Tetrisphere really shine as one of the best multiplayer games of all time.

To experience the maximum multiplayer mayhem that this game has to offer, use only two blocks: the purple "L" block and the red "T" block. You'll also want to make the sphere 5 layers deep with 99% core exposure required to win (you'll see why). For some reason these two blocks fit together well on the sphere allowing for huge, often unintentional combos. These huge combos strip the sphere of blocks quickly and send an exorbitant amount of black blocks to the opponent who is then forced to either use skill in block manipulation on these blocks to generate massive combos of their own and return them to the opponent or die trying.

It's this mechanic of sending black blocks to the opponent and skillfully utilizing black blocks received to send even more black blocks back that makes Tetrisphere's multiplayer so much fun and by setting the core exposure required to win to 99%, your fun won't be interrupted by someone accidentally winning from core exposure.

Excellent game for mature adults who like to use their minds for something other than killing, shooting, maiming, etc. as most popular games of today do.

This is a great version of tetris, it doesn't get boring. Has tolerable morbid-ish techno music. The 3D sphere is multi-layered which provides a better challenge than most other puzzle games.

  A Tetris game in 3D "THAT DOESN'T SUCK!"
Review created: 10/16/01
by: StarSoldier1 -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Killer graphics, excellent music, addictive game play, and over 200 levels.

Cons:
No original Tetris I guess.

TETRISPHERE (Nintendo/H2O, 1997) Ever wonder what Tetris would look like in 3D? Although its been done before, in Tetrisphere it been finally done right! Believe it or not Tetrisphere was originally suppose to be an Atari Jaguar game but it got canceled when Atari started to fall apart in 1994. Besides, how many people actually own a Jaguar, eh? Tetrisphere was then introduced has a new Nintendo64 title in 1996 but despite all of the games unique features like it's awesome light sourcing graphics, cool techno music, and addictive game play, the game didn't really get a lot of hype or press...

Pros:
You can play it forever and not get sick of it

Cons:
NONE-you heard me NONE-Zilch

yah, I know that was kinda lame but I couldn't think of a good title I just wanted to start writing about it before I lost my train of thought! This is a Nintendo game that I will never get bored of playing. I have had this game for over 3 years now and I still play it, all of the time. This game has many different types of puzzles and they are all fun they all start out really easy but if you think that you are good, try to finish what you started. First you can store games without having a memory pack which is very nice and you can save something like 8 different games. You put in your name.

by: CarieP -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Great challenge

Cons:
none

I have been playing this game for about four years now. Yes I have beat it but it is so much fun and so addicting that you have to play again. There are different ways that you can play this game and beat it. You can play against each robotic figure they have to choose from. Each one has different speeds and strengths. You yourself pick who you want to be. The screen will split in two and you are on one side while the computer is on the other. Each time you beat a level by being the first one to uncover the core of the sphere. You uncover it by dropping pieces of the same shape on other...

  How can they put the Tetris name on this?
Review created: 06/17/00
by: jonotrain -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
It is fun for a day, maybe.

Cons:
This terrible game is a smear on Tetris' name

Tetrisphere is a game with a lot of problems. It is an attempt to sell a mediocre game by giving it a popular name. It is fun at times, but can be boring, frustrating, and is not nearly as addictive as the original. First of all, this game has next to no relation to the Original Tetris. It is supposed to be a translation of Tetris into three dimensions, but, besides the piece shapes, I can find no similarities between the two. Pieces are removed by dropping a piece shape on top of another similar one which is touching at least one shape of the same kind. It is very simple, and after a small...

Review created: 10/15/00
by: Shaunpm60 -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Good graphics and excellent sound. Addictive as hell!

Cons:
This game can be EXTREMELY confusing if you don't go through the tutorial.

Tetrisphere is one of the most addictive N64 games around, unfortunatly, you may have a hard time finding this puzzler. Originally a game for Atari's ill-fated Jaguar (the "64-bit" system released before the N64), Nintendo snagged this game from a firey death. The game seems very complex, but luckily, H20 put in a tutorial for everything you need to know in the game, and trust me, it helps! The objective of the game is to "peel" the large sphere to rescue a robot trapped inside. Easier said than done. You have to match 3 or more of the same shape that directly touch each other in order to...
