In 1989 Atari Games released a port of their arcade version for the Nintendo Entertainment System under their Tengen which was not licensed by Nintendo for the system. However, there were issues with the publishing rights for "Tetris", and after much legal wrangling, Nintendo itself ended up with the rights to publish console versions, leaving Atari with only the rights to arcade versions. As a result, the Tengen game was only on the shelf for four weeks before Atari was legally required to recall the game and destroy any remaining inventory of its NES version.
