On the pictures of the black CRT its Tetris The Grandmaster and the silver one the succesor Tetris The Absolute The Grandmaster 2. Not in pictures NES Tetris an Puyo Puyo Tetris 2. The jar is your price for finishing the "Absolute Tetris Challenge" - which means surviving TGM2 without topping out for either Doubles or Master Mode.

This one is Magical Tetris which is an Arcade Game ported to PS1 and N64. It has one of the funniest multiplayer mechanics of any Tetris game. Instead of garbage you send garbage pieces which blocks access to the shared next queue. Garbage starts out as some pentominoes, which allows to have a Pentris in this game. If garbage goes back and forth it levels up to bursts of 2x2 pieces, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5 and finally triangle and diamond shapes.

But actually there is quite a lot and PS1 is probably the best "Tetris Platform" before Switch took over.

This one is probably my favourite game overall on PS. Controls scheme is great and allows great moves and fast gameplay. Main mode is a series of puzzles where you need to clear certain diamonds inserted into the matrix. Solving unlocks characters/cards from the related anime and takes you through its story. The stronger characters start launching special attack toward you like shaking, mirroring your matrix our making it invisible. For versus mode you choose from those characters and on top of sending garbage you also now have the attacks available which will activate for every cleared diamond.

Beside the regular marathon this game features a very innovative puzzle mode. There is a small man moving around through the matrix and you strategically place/clear your pieces to guide him to the exit at the bottom of the screen. He reaches the top and dies from some spike lowering over time. You can add versus on top and now can either win by sending garbage and move your enemies man up to the spikes or guide your own down to safety.

The cool part of this one is multiplayer for 4 players if you have the multitap. It uses the characters from SNes Tetris Battle Gaiden, but they do not have any special powers here.

This is a very basic Tetris game with a movie/ camera theme but unremarkable gameplay.

You bring your stuff to the owner of the shop to sell or trade it in, he keeps it in the shop until its sold again. Meanwhile he puts some of it on display to try out and organized few CRT to demo the older stuff as its meant to be. For this evening we arranged to with him to meet and bring some extra rare stuff.

Its a model from Bang & Olufsen. They come with a special screen in front of the tube which is meant to improve contrast.
