Surprisingly, Alexey Pajitnov, the inventor of Tetris, didn't make any money from the game initially due to Soviet laws. It wasn't until the 1990s after he moved to the US that he started earning royalties.

Poor Alexey Pajitnov got Tetris fame but not the fortune. He didn't see any money until later when he founded The Tetris Company in 1996.
