    The variety of game modes is there, the cool Pokemon license is there, the excellent effort of NST is there, but the core of the game-- the gameplay-- just doesn't have that certain piece of magic and accessibility that separates the Tetrises from the wannabes.

    Those who've already played "Tetris Attack" may want to take a pass on this as well, as the addition of the 3D mode and the Pokémon license aren't enough to justify this purchase.

    No Pokémon fans should even consider a purchase or a rent. This game is just a sick grab for your cash. I'm so ashamed.

    It takes Tetris Attack and offers so little in the way of new material that it redefines the word "shameless."

    Consider this a review of both Pokémon puzzle league and Tetris attack. It is a simple, fun, and addicting puzzle game that was overshadowed.
