Tetris - Silver Jubilee

This article makes me nostalgic.
It has sold more than 70 million copies, been released for nearly every
video-game platform of the past two decades and even been played on the
side of a skyscraper.
I remember always wanting to have a TV Video game as a kid. It was one of the things that i thought would keep me eternally happy. However, as fate would have it i could never own one. However, what i eventually owned was a hand held video game box called the brickgame. There were a few variants of Tetris in this simple monochrome LCD based game box. I loved it and was hooked to it instantly. As Tetris turns 25, i am still very sure it can bring back the same excitement in me when i play it as a 26 year old :-). Btw, I used to play tetris sometime back on my mobile phone.!!
