    Here’s a really fascinating video that explains the various NES Tetris controller techniques, including rolling, the new technique that’s radically changed the way the game is played the last few years.

      Thanks for sharing! I ended up following it up with the video this creator did on BluScutti and this top comment from BluScutti himself genuinely made me tear up a bit:

      “Amazing video scout! Its amazing to be in one of your videos since your videos are what got me into the Tetris scene in the first place.

      Just fucking cool

      It’s worth checking out the player Fractal, who does stream on YouTube. I would consider him a pioneer in rolling.

        He also got the level 155 crash today. Second person to ever beat the game.
