Access the Hidden Music Track in Tetris (NES) - Retrogaming Easter Eggs #tetris

In the NES version of Tetris, there is an unused music track that can be accessed using a simple Game Genie code.

If you enter the Game Genie code "PEIAZI" then press Start to begin your game of Tetris, you will find that Music 1 will be replaced with a music track that can't be heard through normal means.

The consensus seems to be that this song was intended for the title screen, since there usually isn't any music there and that's kinda weird if you think about it.

Of course, the one time he DOESN’T forget what step he’s on, it’s the one with only 1 step.

I loved playing Peiazi growing up in my Italian household..I always wanted to play as the leaning tower of Pisa piece, but I always ended up getting the bowl of spaghetti or the mustachioed man on pizza boxes...good family times

The hidden music (or HM09 - Tetris Attack if we're talking pokemans) sounds like it fits more into Dr. Mario than Tetris. This is of course my opinion. No need to HM01 me or anything.

Ice cream? Yeah sounds about right for the tune.

Sounds really early on like Gyromite or Gumshoe

My theory is this song was intended to be used on the title screen, but for whatever reason, it got scrapped, which explains why it's still in the game’s music data.

I Was Expecting It To Be Music A From Tetris On Game Boy.

reminds me of music from doctor Mario or star tropics

Peiazi is a secret italian word which means "and tell your friends I'm great!"

I thought you froze your video for a minute you were soo still, but apparently you're just great... at not moving (and otherwise). I told my friends.

Music 2 is the best music. Don’t argue with me

[glennwwicks]

isnt that music the game over music? or "you beat the game" music? it sounds really familiar

[mattnova]

worst game genie code ever [for kids] but as an adult I appreciate it 😂

[alexstancil]

As an Italian, I’ve never heard that word lol

[nitroglitch]

Why do you look like that red, white, and blue popsicle with indescribable flavors?
