Giant Tetris Spotted In Arcades

I hadn’t been to an arcade recently, so I went down to King Joy in Sakae yesterday. After going up the escalators, passing a group of high school girls that were pointing and laughing at a cosplay nerd that was also walking by, I turned right to head into the “causual gaming” area. Here you’ll find racing games, Rhythm Heaven arcade, the light gun games, and surprisingly, this Tetris game. It’s called Dekaris (a combo of giant and Tetris). Up to two players can use the oversized joysticks to play a simplified version of Tetris. Since I was alone, I couldn’t actually see how 2-player mode worked. One of these days, I’ll drag someone over there and actually see what’s up. But it’s worth posting the photo just to show you the giant joysticks.
