About

Tetris’ block-building game play has proven timeless. To date, Tetris has been downloaded by over 500 million mobile users, making it the best selling video game of all time.


The classic puzzle game, Tetris, took a circuitous route to the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Developed in 1984 by Alexey Pajitnov, the name is a portmanteau, combining tetromino (shapes consisting of four squares, like the base Tetris shapes) and Pajitnov’s favorite game, tennis. For several years there was much confusion as to who owned the publishing rights for the game on different platforms, with many different competing versions being produced. 

 

Released in 1989, after a legal battle with Atari over rights ownership, this Nintendo-produced version was made available after the Atari Games version was prohibited from further sale. Tetris II, released in 1993, was published solely by Nintendo and made available on several of their consoles, including the Game Boy, NES, and Super Nintendo Entertainment System. 


These copies specifically have been graded as a 9.8 with an A++ seal, the highest seal grade attainable from Wata.


Highlights

Thesis
Tetris is one of the most-played video games ever, with more than 500 million players on mobile alone. Its popularity extends beyond the world of video games, influencing architecture, music and cosplay. Tetris’ iconic imagery and the recent momentum in the collectible video game market bolster the potential value of this drop.
The Game
This drop features the Nintendo NES games Tetris and Tetris II in a 9.8 A++ grade, which is the highest attainable seal grade at Wata. The games were released in 1989 and 1993, so finding them in a high-grade condition is rare.
Recent Sales
There are no direct comparables for these games in the 9.8 A++ grade. A close comparable sale for the Tetris game is a 9.8 A+ sale at $5,520 in July 2020..
Macro Trends
The collectible video game market gained traction in 2020, breaking a record high public sale in November 2020 of $156,000 for Super Mario Bros. Given the scarcity of high quality vintage games and the amount of people engaged with the category, we are excited about the market's future potential.
Risk
This category has grown significantly this past year, and there is a possibility that such growth isn’t replicable going forward. Additionally, there are limited public data points around pricing as the category is still fairly nascent.
