Fun story about a non-gamer going for a Tetris world record.
> "It's funny," I told Flewin. "We have an old Nintendo Game Boy floating around the house, and Tetris is the only game we own. My wife will sometimes dig it out to play on airplanes and long car rides. She's weirdly good at it. She can get 500 or 600 lines, no problem."
> ...the world record for Game Boy Tetris is 327 lines...

The article was published 2007, but it's not clear when it took place. Seems in Sept 2007, Hong took back his record with a monumental score. I wonder how long it took to get four digits? https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/most-lines-cleared-in-tetris-dx
