I would really love some new Meteos and Lumines though. I think it's just hard to do variations on the genre, cause the Tetris Company trademarked a lot of stuff related to Tetris. They were sort of invented for the NES/Gameboy days but now they're too "simple" to compete on those platforms but require too much precision and speed to work well on just a touch-screen generally (so you get more turn-based stuff like candy crush on smart phones). I think the reason you don't see as much any more is because they're a bit of a genre without a great platform any more. I made own and put it on itch.io a couple years ago (I won't advertise the name though).
You can probably have some lucky trying to find other new types of falling-block puzzle games on Itch.io or steam if you look hard enough. The only reason I still have my original PSP is because once a year or so I get the craving to play the original game.

Unfortunately I think most of the newer versions of it suck in 1 way or another: Lumines on iOS controls bad and has a smaller well, Electronic Symphony on the Vita makes weird changes to the gameplay that make it more random and less skill-based (combo blocks immediately light-up once they are dropped so you're not able to make a big chain out of it afterward, also they just straight-up added a "shuffle block"), and the PS3 version is pretty close to the PSP games but has some really ugly skins and bad music compared to the original. Lumines is by far my favorite game in the genre and I would argue probably the coolest style of that gameplay since Tetris. Games like Meteos and Puzzle League proved that touch controls are great for it, it makes me sad that there aren't more.
Android/iOs is filled with Bejeweled style Match-3s but no falling blocks. I just always found these games so compelling and I think it's odd that I don't even see them represented on Mobile platforms anymore. Pokemon Trozei was a weird little one on the DS, much different/better than Pokemon Shuffle (Shuffle is a match-3, Trozei was a falling-blocks puzzler) Mario actually wasn't really ever my thing, but I guess this had a 3ds sequel in 2015 Puyo Puyo actually hadn't been localized in the West in like 15 years, part of why I was so excited for PPT.ĭr.

Lumines: This one actually got an official Android port which is nice. Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo was great fun, and it has a really awful mobile version now complete with microtransaction awfulness. Tetris Attack (aka Pokemon Puzzle League), brilliant, I think the last one was a DS Puzzle League and then that's it. Meteos (DS): My all time favorite, no sequel in sight. (Though thinking about it, Candy Crush and the 3ds both released in 2012) I would say that mobile gaming killed it, but it feels like it died off earlier since the most recent things I can think of are mostly from the Nintendo DS era.

The recent PC release of Puyo Puyo Tetris has me addicted and reminiscing about how much I loved all of these block puzzle games back in the day.
