Someone asked Haze about emulation status of terminal that Tetris originally ran on -- http://mamedev.emulab.it/haze/2012/05/31/emulation-status/#comment-22334

It's the "Электроника 15ИЭ-00-013" (transliterated: 15IE-00-013), and is not emulated. There's a technical manual, not sure if ROMs are already dumped.

Photo of the terminal (top unit is the machine it's connected to): http://www.leningrad.su/museum/show_calc.php?n=283

Photos of the board set: http://asvcorp.ru/darch/hardware/pdp/fryazin-display/index.html (from top to bottom: CPU, program ROM, character generator ROM, RAM, I/O board).

Technical manual: http://t-book.net/retrovt/213-to15ie00013.html (there's a separate manual for the keyboard, it's not included)
