Tetris (NES, Nintendo)

Nintendo published the first official version of Tetris for Nintendo Entertainment System.
Unlike Tetяis, this game has no 2-player mode.
== Details==
The Nintendo Entertainment System is specified to run at 60.0988 frames per second. It was first published in North America in 1985 by Nintendo Entertainment.
Rotation system is a right-handed Nintendo Rotation System.
Lock delay, wall kick and hard drops were not implemented. Softdrops were allowed, and the players were rewarded 1 point per cell (Max of 20). 
DAS initial delay is 16 frames, and then every 6 frames.
Soft drop speed is 1/2G.
ARE is 10~18 frames depending on the height at which the piece locked; pieces that lock in the bottom two rows are followed by 10 frames of entry delay, and each group of 4 rows above that has an entry delay 2 frames longer than the last; line clear delay is an additional 17~20 frames depending on the frame that the piece locks; the animation has 5 steps that advance when the global frame counter modulo 4 equals 0. As a consequence, the first step of the line clear animation is not always a set number of frames.
The following table of gravity speeds was observed and later found to be stored at $898E (offset $099E in the iNES format ROM):

In Marathon (called A-TYPE), when the player line clear (startLevel * 10 + 10) or max(100,startLevel*10-50) lines, whatever comes first, the level advances by 1.
After this, the level advances by 1 for every 10 lines.
* Start at level 5, advance to level 6 at 60 lines, advance to level 7 at 70 lines.
* Start at level 12, advance to level 13 at 100 lines, advance to level 14 at 110 lines.
Due to the way that line clear math works (shifting a decimal number, then forgetting to convert from hexadecimal to decimal), lines after level 20 also behave oddly.
