Tetris is one of the most popular and enduring video games of all time, with versions available on every console and computer, many of which have endings built into story modes and the like, but the original endless mode was unbeatable by humans, but a child… The 13-year-old is the first person to beat the NES version of a game Tetris.
This success was achieved 34 years after the game was originally released in 1989, as announced by YouTube user aGameScout, according to the engadget report.
Oklahoma teen Willis Gibson, also known as Blue Scuti on YouTube, was unable to reach the stated ending where there is no ending. He played the game perfectly for so long that he forced a screen that led to… Game crashesThese screens are usually caused by an overshoot error that occurs when you speed up the game so much that the software can’t keep up.
The teenager achieved the feat after 38 minutes of play and captured the moment on video, the first to do so.
Gibson, also known as Blue Scudi, told a YouTuber that he is dedicating the achievement to his late father, who recently passed away in December. He also said that the gaming session was so hectic that he couldn’t feel his fingers afterwards.
Achieving this legendary screen is a rite of passage for old-school gaming, if you’ve seen the King of Kong documentary.
