We already know that Hudson's Tetris Party will support the Wii Fit Balance Board as well as Wii Remote 'point and shoot' control. Couple that together with online play and 18 different game modes to choose from and what you have is a fairly impressive Tetris package overall.
We still don't have a firm release date for Tetris Party, but Hudson has said to expect the game sometime this Fall. You can check out the Official Tetris Party Site for more details on the game.
If you just can't get enough of the Tetris Party game play videos, you're in luck. We have a brand new video of the game in action to help tide you over until this newest rendition of Tetris hits the WiiWare service later this year.
If one video isn't enough for you, you can always check out the other Tetris Party videos courtesy of 1UP.

This game is going to be a must have for me. Glad the balance board isn't required.

I'm liking the new modes so far. Looks like fun. I would love to see multiplayer in action next.

This game looks even better than before, this is going to be a great game, and when is the Strongbad review coming out?

I'm still watching this one, but that mode looked rather plain to me....

That's because it's the standard( marathon) mode.

Cool. Tetris is one of the best games ever.

So THAT'S the pointer mode. Not too shabby. The remix of Korobeyniki is pretty cool.

If only I liked Tetris. I am sure that someone will frown at me.

They haven't messed up with the music! I was quite worried about that. Well yeah, about the general gameplay and different modes, too; but mostly the original music. Can we have it already?
@Objection_Blaster:
Why yes, that would be a normal reaction of the people who spent hours (days) on it when it first came out on the Game Boy
. Then again, puzzle games don't appeal to everyone.

I liked Tetris 20 years ago, but it's wearing pretty thin with me nowadays. Maybe this will inject some life into the series.

Tetris is so simple, yet addictingly fun.
I only hope at least 5 of the 18 modes are any good.

This is gonna make a ton of money on the service, considering it's a popular puzzle franchise. Just look at the success of Dr. Mario...

As surprising as this may be, I've never owned an actual copy of Tetris and am looking forward to this......or should I? Can anyone tell me the differences between this version and the already out DS version?

I still have tetris ds...and I can't remember the last time I played that

I never had an actual copy either. I played it free on the internet. at school, and on a calculator, and I loved those, but I never had any other iteration of the game. Good thing they came out with this, especially considering how expensive the DS one is getting.
@Tides of Chaos
Ten more modes, some of which look fun; up to six people online, instead of 4; various control options; Wiiware only costs ten bucks.

Forget StrongBad, Plattchen and even LostWinds2, THIS is my most anticipated WW game right now. In fact, I'm more excited about this than any other game this year, including COD, ACCF and GHWT

Probably not worth your money if you already own Tetris DS. The only WiiWare games I'm looking forward to are:
Bomberman Blast
LostWinds 2
Mega Man 9
Shantae
Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People

But i don't have a DS. So i'm looking forward to this. Hopefully we get it before winter hollydays.

Only the Shadow mode has sold me so far and ONLY if it has online versus. Oh and 100+ puzzles and animations on completion ala Picross.

I think it the multiplayer rocks then it will do just that

I can't wait for this game. I know people already have Tetris DS but I can't wait to get my hands on 18 game modes. I just hope they don't suck. for 18 modes and online multiplayer 1000 wii points is worth the cost

My most anticipated game period as well. This game looks so good. I mean 18 modes for a WiiWare title? If that doesn't say "Must buy," I don't know what does. I know XC season started, so it's fall in my mind. Let's see this baby!
