Tetris.

Tetris.

Tetris Game Boy.

No question.

Tetris and a Game Boy, yeah.

It was the perfect device for playing that game.

I never liked it as much as anything else.

My wife was trying to get a retro one for my kids, trying to get them for Christmas right now.

It was the most addicted I ever was to anything in my life of far too many addictions.

I was obsessed by it, dreaming about it.

And when you link two together with the cable, and if I got four, it would push yours forward.

It was like the perfect game design.

So from a pure...

puzzle perspective nothing comes close yes extremely simple yeah pure gameplay no narrative no no nothing no no personality at all it's a completely different perfection but perfect in its way open world games can't be that perfect yeah but you always dream of making something like that there's super mario i think the n64 ones all of those early 3d games

were very amazing when you first saw them.

On the N64, PS1, when you went, it suddenly was like, these games, they're alive, or they're believable in a different way.

I think that was very interesting.

Nintendo has that look, doesn't it?

Always.

No, but it's amazing.
