This game looks like it's going to be pretty damn cool:
This version of Tetris will feature a classic Nintendo theme, paying homage to past Nintendo franchises such as Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Metroid in the game's worlds. The DS version will support a whopping ten players locally, supporting single cartridge multiplayer for those nine other non-cartridge DS owners.
The real kicker is that Tetris DS will fully support the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service. Two player and Four player battles are possible online via the free service, and the game will record and display online rankings earned during the battles. It's not the first time the game's gone online (Tetris Worlds for the Xbox and even the unofficial Netris for the PC have had the ability for years), but it shows that Nintendo's dedicated to the Wi-Fi service for 2006 to get what's considered the most popular puzzle game working on it.
