Please post reviews here. Looks like a new Tetris-style game.

NEW!? do you not remember Dr. Mario from the late eighties? okay. well it is a little more frantic than tetris but not as much so as tetris attack, or pokemon puzzle league, what it is today. it is right in between. it has six modes of play including story mode, classic, 4 plyr vs., and others. it is exactly like the original except for the head to head play and 4 player mode. whenever you pull off combos it sends garbage to the other persons screen. it is a good buy especially at the $29.99 MSRP. however if you are tight on cash i would wait and buy it used at blockbuster.

I haven't seen Dr. Mario 64, but n64.ign.com didn't like it very much. (they gave it a 5) The old Dr. Mario was a fairly slow paced columns-type clone.

If you're looking for an N64 puzzle game, Pokemon Puzzle League is the best I've seen. I hate Pokemon characters, but the game is really decent.

The 64 version is pretty much just like the SNES and NES version. If you're willing to pay $30 go ahead. If not, then don't.
