The target audience of this guide is the beginner who has just seen CTWC (the Classic Tetris World Championships) and doesn't want to discover how to play NES Tetris on their own. It covers everything from setup of an emulator and hardware to the principles of spins, burning, the DAS, and other advanced techniques. I've attempted to cover every technique that I could in the limited time span I had to write the script for this video, record the audio and video, and edit it, all while frequently swapping between operating systems on my dual-booting laptop. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy it.
