Unfortunately, I haven't played it, Fisher! I don't currently have a Nintendo Online subscription and probs won't for a while. The game looks to be fun but chaotic! Have you tried it yet, Fisher?

Nice one! Did you improve on any others?

White Land is one you could easily grab. After I set my time I learnt there's a shortcut that saves 1-1.5 seconds per lap.

I just one my first ever standard 99 race :o

Absolute fluke as the two people ahead of me imploded on the final straight.


No other improvements in TT

Note if you want in on this you can get some extra gold points with a 12 month sub currently to spend on eshop games essentially netting a discount. I think it's £7 to £10 worth.

Also applies to +expansion pack subscriptions for N64 and stuff. Tempted.

Interesting. So that's the 4 remaining Queen Cup courses and one more from the King Cup, presumably?

Seems odd if so as there'll only be 3 courses left to release after that.

Unless they plan to introduce courses from X, Maximum Velocity, GX etc?

Or just design brand new courses.

If the game maintains interest and popularity I would not be surprised if they did paid DLC with new courses down the line.

I don't see GX happening due to the fact it's 3D, but I could definitely see them adding the courses from the 3 GBA releases and the second SNES release that never made it out of Japan.

Has Tetris99 ever had paid DLC? If not I doubt they’d do it for this.

For Tetris 99? For one there was a single player / marathon mode if you just wanted to play Tetris on your own like a normal person. Which for about a fiver wasn't a bad option.

But now there's Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 and Tetris Effect for that.

They could conceivably create a single play grand prix mode for this as well as other tracks.

Hopefully they don't abandon it like Mario 99 and Pacman 99.
