The tetris with the white outline is the non-bundled version of the game. (the one you purchased separately).
I know what I'm going to say now is off-topic, but I think it's worth to mention: The board says DMG-
TRA but not DMG-
TR like on the label is because all the PCBs were manufactured in Japan (obviously) but AFAIK, the top-left one (the one that has the DMG-TRA-1 chip) is the board of the Japanese version put into a US casing (it doesn;t really matter because the ROM is identical to all regions).
BUT do you know all the tetris carts are a hardware revision?
There is an obscure variant of tetris that was released in Japan only that had the chip DMG-TRA-
0 and the ROM has a few changes:
1. The A-TYPE song is different, it's not korobeniki but another one called "
minuet".
2. If you started the game at level 9 you can reach level 10 by clearing only 20 lines instead of 100.
3. In A-TYPE, the player needs 50,000 less points for the rocket starts (50,000 points for small missile, 100,000 for medium, 150,000 for big).
4. The level up sound is less conspicuous and there is another unused level-up sound accessed by a game genie code.
5. Inputs during line clears are not ignored.
This allows to charge a Delayed Auto Shift for the next Tetromino.
Using the rotation buttons will have no effect besides creating a sound, such a sound will silence the remaining part of the line clear sound.
6. Other minor differences.
I'm a lucky owner of this version (CIB!), so I cloud upload a picture of the PCB (
link).
Just wanted to share with ya, because most of the collectors I know don't know this.
It's indeed interesting because it is the internal version of the game that changed the gaming industry (yeah ik tetris existed before but wasnt that popular until the gameboy era)
The cart was in a special big box bundle that has a link cable inside, and has the code DMG-TRAT, and around 10,000-25,000 copies of it were sold.
But back to topic, AFAIK the glob PCBs are later versions of the game.
