34 years after its release on NES, Blue Scuti has become the first human to ever reach Tetris' Kill Screen.

'Blue Scuti is a Tetris prodigy who employs the “rolling” controller technique, a new way of holding and using the NES controller that was popularized in 2021.'
So, as I always suspected...there's no actual ending to the game. The goal is to "break" it? wut
Only an AI had done it previously, apparently.
In any case, IMO it's cool that it was a 13yo that made the new records for score, lines, etc. I don't expect there's too many young people playing the original NES version.
