I hope it turns out better than the demo too. Just a couple months then we will know what 5 years of religious work on a game will do.
From what I read, he doesn't even have a source of constant income. He "has stock" which I assume means banked cash, and he does other things like give plasma, etc.

I don't mean to come off that way, but it seems simpler to me to just pass a thread up if the topic is something you don't like than to call for it to be locked because of it. But I'll leave that one alone.
Well, I'm not going to lock the thread, and I sincerely doubt they were being serious. They're expressing their distaste for this project and you don't get to tell them to not express it.
It'll be on the iPod Touch, and iPhone, since Apple doesn't really care what does, and what doesn't go up. Dunno about the legalities of the references in the game.

Under Parody laws in the US, he can get away with it.

Dude, there are SOOO many total ripoffs of Tetris out there that even call themselves Tetris but they aren't touched.
Yeah but very few of those managed to get mainstream gaming news outlets to cover their story. Even fewer are actually planning on making money based on the game (most things called Tetris not made by the Tetris company have been flash games, or atleast what I've seen).
Demo Two is out, and it's now coded for PC. Includes 3 minigames, check out the website and forum for strats and tips on beating that awfully hard Tetrid. So far, it's fun!

The DS was released in North America in late 2004, this guy is from North America. The game was also originally a GBA game.
