Collector interest

Hatris on NES bears the name of Alexey Pajitnov, creator of Tetris, via Bullet-Proof Software, giving it appeal for followers of the author. Its late 1992 release, as the NES waned against the Super Nintendo, kept the run small. More than its gameplay value, the Pajitnov lineage and the puzzle's end-of-life scarcity drive its current standing.
