Greatest puzzle game of all time. My friends and I recently played Tetris Attack! for over 4 consecutive hours and weren't bored. You can't say that about too many other games on the SNES.

Agreed on the puzzle game ever, but Ghouls and Ghosts was a lot of fun too. I gave my vote to Tetris Attack.

Hmmm.... I think I need to check out Tetris Attack. This is another one of those that I missed when I was SNES age.

(Didn't vote in this one...)

It's great. I used to get so competitive playing this game with my friends.

Those trumpets were the most glorious, and frightening sound ever.

Damn, that might be the best chain I've seen on the the SNES version. But check out this incredible 64(!!!) chain on the 3d board in Pokemon Puzzle League (upgraded N64 version).

I really wish they would release a version of Tetris Attack or Pokemon Puzzle league on DS or GBA. I would love to play that again and it'd be great on a hand held.

Haven't played either of these but the mechanics should be extremely similar to Tetris Attack and Pokemon Puzzle League.
