'''Tetris''' (Russian: Те́трис, pronounced [ˈtɛtrʲɪs]) is a Russian tile-matching [[puzzle]] game, originally designed and programmed by Alexey Pajitnov. [[Bullet Proof Software]]'s version was the very first commercial release of Tetris in Japan. It was published in 1988 for several popular Japanese computer platforms, including the [[Fujitsu FM-7]], [[MSX2]], [[NEC PC-88]], [[NEC PC-98]], [[Sharp X1]], and the [[Sharp X68000]]. However, BPS did produce one version for console; the [[Famicom]] version. | '''Tetris''' (Russian: Те́трис, pronounced [ˈtɛtrʲɪs]) is a Russian tile-matching [[puzzle]] game, originally designed and programmed by Alexey Pajitnov.

The first versions of Tetris created by [[Bullet Proof Software]] were infamous for their unusual control scheme, particularly the Famicom version. Instead of using a fire button for the rotation button, rotations are performed by pressing down on the joystick or control pad. Instead, pressing a fire button causes a hard drop. Players who try this game for the first time and are familiar with more traditional control schemes have a hard time playing initially while they adjust to this format. BPS adopted a more traditional control scheme with subsequent releases of Tetris. | The first versions of Tetris created by [[Bullet Proof Software]] were infamous for their unusual control scheme, particularly the Famicom version.
