Tetris - Music

jay81uk

No matter what Tetris ROM I get, I can't get that well known Tetris music within the game. It's weird! Was this never released and wa only in the UK or something?

No matter what Tetris ROM I get

What system? What region? Which Tetris?
The original Gameboy pack-in Tetris for the UK?
Which emulator?

Brigane

I think maybe you're referring to the game boy version?

jay81uk

Sorry yes the original gameboy version.

backstander

@jay81uk
Which Gameboy emulators have you tried it on?

Also is the ROM the US version or the UK version (or Jap version)?

jay81uk

@backstander It's a multi I think, was the only one on emu.

I don't think it matters which emulator you use it on, any 'type' music I select in the menu of the game doesn't have that classic well known theme.

backstander

@jay81uk
Type A should be the Tetris theme we all know and love ;)

jay81uk

@backstander It should be, but it isn't...

backstander

@jay81uk
That's really weird!
Can you post a video of it?

jay81uk

@backstander here you go...

I see, Bach isn't your favourite artist, ehh? :D :D

@jay81uk
I think you have a Tetris ROM in version 1.0
That's a rare one. On the start screen there should be a slight difference between v1.0 and v1.1

I used google and I was correct with my suggestion :)

This side provides even the download of all songs in OGG format.

jay81uk

Ok so I need a ROM for Tetris which says 1.1 right?

felleg

Probably, yes. There are multiple versions of this same game. Try the most "recent" version you can find.

cyperghost

@jay81uk It seems that you need version 1.0 for the special song. I've got that rom after you posted that thread, but I had to visit several sites to get that.

Old thread but, I was having this same issue. After a bit of searching, I found the correct ROM

@mitu What's going on around here? That's like the 4th time I've seen you have to smack someone with a rolled up newspaper in the last few hours.

mitu

@mattrixk I know, it's weird - didn't see this happening in a long time. I hope it's not going to catch on.

Brigane

yeah, it's a very bad habit :(
