	ahstro 25 Feb 2019 10:30 Is someone looking into why a bunch of achievements aren't working on RA/Gambatte? Love this game, and the new cheevs look amazing, so sad they don't work
	JAM 7 Mar 2019 08:11 Because retroarch sucks.
	ahstro 7 Mar 2019 08:43 Yeah, I hate how it lets me play all my favorite retro games on all my devices - including my Switch - under a clean and unified interface. Real shit software tbh. /s
	~~Blazekickn~~ 7 Mar 2019 11:26 Pretty sure the Gambatte core was changed semi-recently in a way that broke it for all achievements and it hasn't been fixed for some reason. Use Gearboy or Sameboy in the meantime.
	ahstro 7 Mar 2019 11:30 Blazekickn: Thanks for the tip! For Tetris DX specifically or for all games? Because I've been playing regular Tetris and Wario Land and it has worked fine :/
	~~Blazekickn~~ 7 Mar 2019 11:50 unsure about GB but a lot of GBC broke for sure.
	Keltron3030 26 Nov 2019 02:52 Hey, Tetris fans I added 6 leaderboards.
	Keltron3030 26 Nov 2019 13:09 Decided to settle on just 3 LBs. One for each game mode at the highest difficulty.
	GegeT2 26 Mar 2020 10:09 hi, sorry for my english, how to increase the power for 1500 and 2000 achievements? thank you
	TheHaze34 31 Mar 2020 22:23 Start a new file. Try to get as much tetrises as possible.Rather die with only few lines erased than continue deleting singles and doubles.
	GegeT2 1 Apr 2020 14:11 ok big thank you i try this
	GegeT2 1 Apr 2020 15:30 1500 get ! i stop at 1969 no good for 2000 :) BTW thank you
	SleeperOPMD 14 May 2020 21:40 What is the "Take it Back" achievement?
	SleeperOPMD 7 Jun 2020 22:13 I take it this forum is dead.
	Keltron3030 7 Jun 2020 22:30 Nope... https://retroachievements.org/achievement/18642
	TheHaze34 13 Jun 2020 20:49 AFAIK "take it back" is only possible with RAVBA.Set the emulator to classic GB mode.
	ChippiHeppu 20 Jun 2020 21:19 Mastered on top of snatching every top spot on the leaderboards :)
	out 14 May 2021 03:00 Mastered!
	LarviStar37 17 Dec 2021 01:26 MASTERED! The whole achievement set took me around 4 hours and 10 minutes to complete! Hardest achievement was the Perfect Clear in marathon, 2nd hardest was clearing the 40 Lines mode with only Tetrises. Game Over; thank you for playing! https://i.imgur.com/u8GV1gb.png
	Keltron3030 17 Dec 2021 01:45 Congrats :)
