At the center of this evolution is how players move the &ldquo;tetriminos&rdquo; to the left and right.</p> <p>The NTSC version runs at 60Hz. Compared to modern Tetris, there are vastly different mechanics in how the pieces move and are generated. Missing features include:</p> <ul> <li><strong>No Wall Spins:</strong> A piece in NES Tetris needs to fit exactly and cannot be &ldquo;kicked&rdquo; or moved to the side during a rotation.</li> <li><strong>No 7-Bag:</strong> The 7-bag generation of modern Tetris does not exist. Each piece is chosen independently, meaning you could theoretically get the same piece an infinite amount of times in a row.</li> </ul> <p>There are currently two primary methodologies for piece movement: <strong>DAS</strong> and <strong>Rolling</strong>.</p>
