As always in capitalism, video games have largely deformed from an art form into just another means to generate profit for large corporations
Yeah it being an incredibly addictive universally approachable game has nothing to do with it being widely played for over 40 years… 🙄
Psst. Almost 40 years. Tetris was released in 1985 not 1983

No it wouldn’t. Tetris was going to get played by millions whether someone licensed it or not. That’s why there was such a mad scramble to land a deal.

You don’t need licensing to copy that floppy. That’s what your mind can’t grasp.
The Soviet Union owned all copyright, there was no licensing let alone individual copyright.
Where are you getting floppies from? Where are you getting your computer from?
Computers and floppies existed outside of the USSR, as did Tetris.
The floppy, invented by IBM, one of the biggest capitalist companies ever??
I think you have me confused for someone else.
