pros:
-looks pretty nice
-movement speed and soft drop speed adjustments are present, although could be a bit better
-single player game modes are decent
-multiplayer ruleset was refreshing (messy garbage, no garbage countering - promotes a new and different playstyle, rewards downstacking more)
-controller support (yay?)

cons:
-crashes when starting some game modes (randomly)
-no irs(initial rotate system - allows rotation of next piece during line clear animation/drop animation)
-no ihs(initial hold system - allows holding of next piece during line clear animation/drop animation)
(a combination of the above two results in hesitation and many misdrops)
-no customizable controls (why do you force us to use the default mappings? at least there's controller support...)
-hard to find opponents on multiplayer
-matchmaking with predefined rooms and rules?
-menus are not intuitive to navigate or interact with
-what happened to replays? The 3DS version had a working replay system, with integrated StreetPass and friend replays shown.

I probably missed a few points somewhere, but that's what I think of the game. If you want to have a bit of fun playing the single-player game modes and don't mind the game crashing a few times before you get it to work, then spend the $15 on the game. If not, don't. In my opinion, and quite ironically, The 3DS version, which is the first version of TU that was made, is the best version in terms of gameplay, although it's unfortunate that the online play was kinda bad.
