This is a 3D tetris game for Nintendo DS and DSi that lets you listen to your own MP3 songs while you play.

This was submitted to the Scenery Beta 2008 (NDS Games, 1st place).

User guide

Create folder Tetris_3DS in the root of your SD card. Then, add as many songs as you want with the name Song_XX.mp3. The game iterates over all songs until there is a missing number, which will restart the loop. You can also add a song called Menu.mp3, which will play in a loop while in the main menu.

Since version 1.4 the game can also run in DSi mode, so it can also find the files in the internal SD card of the DSi, not just in a flashcard.

SD root
|
|-Tetris_3DS
  |
  |-Tetris_3DS.nds (It can be here or somewhere else!)
  |-Menu.mp3
  |-Song_00.mp3
  |-Song_XX.mp3 (From 01 to 99)
  |-Tetris3DS_Config.dat (Created automatically by the game.)

The game will create a file called Error_Log.txt if there is a decoding error so that you can check which files are problematic.

There is a JUKEBOX option that allows you to listen to the music without having to play the game.

Known issues

Sometimes the game gives an error while loading and both screens, just turn black and the game freezes.

This happens because it gives a write error even if FAT has inited OK. You can stop FAT init if you hold R+L before the moment when the game freezes (After the [Tetris 3DS / by Antonio Niño Díaz] screen).

It won't load anything from FAT, but the game will work.

-Tetris 3DS is a 3D Tetris with customizable music for the NDS. Records are saved automatically.
+This is a 3D tetris game for Nintendo DS and DSi that lets you listen to your own MP3 songs while you play.
 This was submitted to the Scenery Beta 2008 (NDS Games, 1st place).
 ==User guide==
-There is a JUKEBOX option that allows you to listen to the music without having to play the game.
-In order to do that you have to keep the size of the songs under 3MB, if not the game will probably crash.
+Create folder Tetris_3DS in the root of your SD card. Then, add as many songs as you want with the name Song_XX.mp3. The game iterates over all songs until there is a missing number, which will restart the loop. You can also add a song called Menu.mp3, which will play in a loop while in the main menu.

+Since version 1.4 the game can also run in DSi mode, so it can also find the files in the internal SD card of the DSi, not just in a flashcard.

-  |   |-Tetris3DS_Config.dat (created automatically)

-When the game tries to load a song that doesn't exist it will go back to SONG_00.MP3. If some song gives a decoding error the game will try to stop it and load the next song, but it sometimes crash. If the game stops the song it will create a file named Error_Log.txt with the bad file.
+The game will create a file called Error_Log.txt if there is a decoding error so that you can check which files are problematic.
-If the game doesn't find MENU.mp3 or SONG_00.mp3, you won't hear anything in the menu or during the game. You should keep you MP3 files under 3MB of size.
+There is a JUKEBOX option that allows you to listen to the music without having to play the game.
