Watch Steve Wozniak Dominate At Tetris

by Ben Hanson on Apr 11, 2013 at 08:10 AM

As the co-founder of Apple Computer, an original board member for Electronic Arts, and renowned philanthropist, Steve Wozniak has a lot to be proud of. But "Woz" holds one honor particularly close to his heart: claiming the high score in Nintendo Power magazine for Tetris on the original Game Boy. While in Montreal for the Thief cover story, we ran into Steve Wozniak and he allowed us to invade his hotel room for an interview. Sitting on his bed was a special edition Game Boy Light with an Astro Boy skin. He was more than happy to show us his Tetris skills.

Watch the video below to learn how Steve Wozniak became the king of Tetris in Nintendo Power and how he used the game to create a bond between Russia's Mikhail Gorbachev and George H.W. Bush.

To learn more about Steve Wozniak, the development of Breakout for Atari with Steve Jobs, and how he designed the Apple II, read the article and watch the videos in the latest edition of Game Informer.
