i wouldn't call it the most popular.

it's the one that they play at the largest tournaments, and the tetris game with the most sought after world records, so i'm using that as my indicator. what would you say is the most popular version for competative play?

Nes Tetris is practically unplayable for today's gamers. While it draws massive nostalgia-driven tournaments targeting the US audience, games like TGM, TETR.IO, and PPT are far more popular globally.

yes, that's why i specified competitive tetris.

When watching any big competition, it's the one they use. While arcade variants like Grand Master have their own cult following, they are clearly in the minority.
