Boom Tetris for jonana

[@ryanmcconkey5817]

I enjoy watching Joseph Saelee play classic tetris. He is a really good hyper tapper, very unique :) I've recently started to learn how to play tetris so I've got a while to go lol. I also enjoy Jonas as well. Boom tetris for Joseph!

[@robloxmaster4545]

Glad someone made this reference

[@bluetarantulaproductions6179]

Nobody heard of Tetris in '92 and you had to use a computer to play it? What about Game Boy or NES?

[@sainzgarcia25]

sega

[@LimitlessJA]

Yeah he was cappin

[@yannycandelario7606]

Video: "Tetris makes you smarter" Me: "This is what you call the Tetris effect"

[@JechtNH]

That's not what tetris effect is. It's when you play so much that you are playing tetris in your dreams and see tetris shapes in a daydreaming state

[@MrNamelessTucker]

if you pause it at 3:27 he has the square saved in the top left corner he could have switch to that and put it where the line block is now and the once the square was placed switched back to the line peace and got a tetris he could have saved a few secs.

[@mo-akif]

it would have been the same amount of moves tho, no? (2) how would that save time

[@shepherdsgamingrun]

They should probably do this again with some of the best hypertappers to see how much of it is mental acuity and how much of it is physical dexterity...

[@skadoosh-_-7]

It's a similar technique used in flamenco guitar it becomes second thought for the hands eventually the physical dexterity falls out of the question because of muscle memory and trained technique and goes back into the mental game

[@quietackshon]

Could the efficient practiced brain, trained by Tetris, be used in other tasks. Or is it only good for Tetris?

[@soilworkdc]

+Quiet Ackshon Quick decision making, pattern recognition and other abilities that are essensial in everyday life

[@frozenhanren4928]

+Quiet Ackshon teris is the simplest example. but theortically u can still learn quantum physics though practice at age 70

[@joelstatosky1817]

pattern recognition and quick decision making. Tetris improved this for me in highschool

[@ChrisTrikollos]

i think it can help your brain to think faster...

[@kingstarscream3807]

I think the biggest takeaway is that if you can train your brain to be more efficient with things like Tetris, you can train it to be more efficient with just about anything.

[@milo6677]

so this makes u smarter or just better at the game

[@blueyoshi7654]

Both

[@feat.cicero4638]

The evidence actually only suggests you get better at the game but not really smarter. But you improve your visuo-spatial reasoning skills, not general intelligence though.

[@Pepeng-Basa]

LOL

[@mleecthulhu]

The games voice is creepy asf...all whispery like.. "back to back tetris"

[@leociresi4292]

I find it erotic

[@dinnerboons1504]

Asmr tetris

[@LinnyUwU]

Cool, now try Puyo Puyo.

[@BaoCypher0912]

the mom cant even use hold, how are you expect her to be that good? normally takes 1-2 years to be decent at tetris and about 5 years to be good

[@santiinx737]

Bao Cypher Jusy downloaded the game, haven’t played in 10 years and I’m dropping bricks like a pro

[@lufetufe7118]

Lol I’m a FPS gamer that just wants to have a break and I’m loving Tetris 99 ( just began playing it )

[@ReeferSmoker]

I'd argue you need less than 20 hours of gameplay to do a 50 line clear at level 10 speed, a few more hours and you can most definitely clear 150 line games

[@davidjennings2300]

Ummm in 1992, NES Tetris had been out for 3 years, and the NES had been out for 9. Not to mention Tetris was one of the games featured in the 1990 Nintendo World Championships, so not only did people know what Tetris was, but they had a computer to play it on (The NES)

[@the_guy_outsidedoingnoobth4426]

Sure its a first game of tetris but as a intermediate /advanced player, it just made me want to slap myself

[@annye783]

Tetris and Puyo make you smarter.

[@basketman2517]

Yea, it helps with planning ahead and being able to see how chain reactions work out.

[@shadowslayer7574]

This is funny I started investing after playing tetris every day

[@Kirby7601]

ok puyo i can't... despite liking the characters in there, i am not good at puyo puyo

[@89gerardo]

well this shows that practice will make you better and more efficient for that particular task but it doesnt show that tetrix make you specially smarter, maybe other more complete activities like music (playing and composing) would make a much bigger effect on the brain and its intelligence :p

[@Nick-kh5xs]

It helps your brain's ability to learn.

[@EnlightenAlchemist]

lv.24 always gets me.

[@alotan2acs]

What talk is this from?

[@g-man1051]

finaly proof that i can play tetris on my school laptop lol

[@cybrhckr]

so they get efficient at playing tetrist. and it is somehow equivelant to smart?

[@GardenBoat]

"In 1992 nobody knew of tetris" um okay

who's that da vinci you're talking about

[@leociresi4292]

My aptitude is sharpest between 10Pm-12Am

[@Detagtive]

Really amazing.. 😄

[@ramkumarr1725]

Ok. Not a rumor. Does make you smarter. Play after heavy meals to double the effort 😂😂

[@smiley77777]

Lmao 🤣 I had Columns instead of Tetris aka we have Tetris at home on the genesis back in the 90s

[@zhibrogamebro9831]

I have to get ny mom see tgis vid

[@Kirby7601]

Shigu

[@plumbersteve]

that's not tetris. that's a lazy kid's cheap knock off tetris. First of all, the piece shouldn't float at the top of the column before it starts to fall. Second, the ghost of the piece removes the need to be skillful in placing the piece AS IT IS FALLING. Finally, when the piece gets to the bottom, it doesn't set for an extra beat. NES tetris worked with a rhythm. When the piece made it to the bottom of the column, it took one beat to set itself. This meant that skill was required to flip the piece and slide it in in ONE BEAT. THIS version of "tetris" gives you all the time in the world to set the piece. It's like someone gives you a bag full of pieces and you pull them out one by one and build your column manually. I'm not impressed by this "accomplishment". Beat Level 9 Height 5 on NES. Then we can talk about skill.

[@Ze.NiTH_]

Guys, we have a badass over here👆 Calm your ass 😂

[@Saturnia2014]

Robert Aznar he's not wrong, though.

[@SrgtBarney]

jesus christ i hate these cringy-ass comments "SCOFF, was that SUPPOSED to be difficult? these people know NOTHING of tetris, come back to me when you contact real players LIKE ME BECAUSE I HAVE A BIGGER TETRIS DICK" the accomplishment wasn't to show skill but to show neuroplasticity and how it presents itself in the world, not your pseudo-alpha approval of whether or not this was difficult or real tetris you basement dwelling fuck

[@betastrep]

There are a number of people who are incredibly skilled at multiple versions of Tetris. NES is not the only one out there, and judging the other versions as being better / worse / harder / easier is missing the point. Also, FWIW, L9 / H5 on B type is not that difficult. I've never played B type until I saw the comment here and decided to give it a go - and successfully completed it on the third attempt. Making it to L20 in the regular game is far more difficult in my view.

[@mleecthulhu]

Real talk! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Facts, all day! Thats when u knew u were the shit... lol

[@yeepaul2355]

Playing games makes you smart? Hey mom, i'm not going to school today

[@yuinurahilyon5711]

Yee Paul Smart move, there are always other methods in getting smarter.

[@crassinula]

Thats not too fast. Go look at top online competitors who play competitevly. THATS fast

[@Pakkens_Backyard]

sub 40 is still quite impressive

[@wertj3977]

The reason, why it isn't fast, is due to many things. such as frame based limitations, tuning limitations, line clear delay, generally bad UI, and of course, the player

[@mallusaih]

i am very smart

[@thebatmanover9000]

Its a chick game!

[@JollyJoel]

wrong

[@EnlightenAlchemist]

+thebatmanover9000 kek

[@Bushey4545]

The top pros at tetris are all men

[@leociresi4292]

Should be used in aptitude testing
