Takeru Satoh did a video with Utada where they played Tetris together and Utada obv destroyed him in it lol

[David Haywood @MameHaze]

This handheld mini-arcade version of Tetris uses a GPL951xx series chip, which has similar video capability to the GPL162xx series, multiple background layers, sprites etc. but for some reason they chose to program the LCDC directly instead.
Got it booting, but much to be done.
