Haha that would explain why the word "title" was in parenthesis when he said there were licensing issues. I sure wouldn't mind playing it under a different name, as long as everything else stayed the same. The best part about
Tetris Attack, for me, was watching the two characters stand right next to each other and "attack" one another with blocks while making the most obnoxious noise. I always loved hearing Yoshi's back-to-back grunts while I mercilessly pounded Bowser in hard mode.
I don't recall PPL having this though, and while it may sound like kind of a lame feature to whine about--especially since PPL has so many more options, there was something
awesome about watching my favorite Mario characters duke it out, and even the backgrounds behind the characters were eye candy. PPL could have done a lot with that visual...showing Pikachu send a bolt of electricity to whatever Pokemon he was battling, while letting out an angry "Pika! Pika!".
I recall a Mickey Mouse game on the Playstation being very similar to
Tetris Attack in such a way...
