My girls love it. So do I.
It’s a game
I’d like to begin by saying that my kids and I have never played this game on the GC. I did not like this game at first, either, because of the play control with just the Wiimote. It is awkward, and at some points you lose sight of why you hit the ball. However, after plugging in the nunchuck, I was able to get separate swing and body motion control (swing=Wiimote, nunchuck=body motion). It’s a similar setup to Mario Super Sluggers, where more casual players can hit and pitch while other players can have better control by using both devices. The game itself has a few very fun minigames, a good tournament and exhibition section, neat courses with clever twists (I never played tennis with a crocodile on my ankle before), cool graphics, and just general Mario fun. The speech messages sent to the remote when you win or lose are great also. It’s a good Wii port of a good game.
Mario Tenis is always a great game. If you like Mario and you like sports games you will love this one.
I knew the controls wouldn’t be great coming in, but I was still disappointed. It’s unnatural and complicated, and even then doesn’t respond well.to choose what direction you hit (right or left) depends on how close the ball is to you when you hit. if you swing at it a little early, it goes to the left, a little late, more to the right. choosing shot type is a matter of direction of controller movement (it does NOT respond well or naturally even given these instructions). diagonally upward = slice, diagonally downward = topsin, but it never seems to register well for me. lobs are straight up, this sort of works, and dropshots straight down work pretty well. the game is unplayable without a nunchuk. it’s still fun, and still the same game! definitely for more of a casual match with friends, i will still bust this out, when you just play and laugh no matter what happens. i can see people laughing at each other’s frustration when your character hits a lob when you wanted a slice, or swings prematurely from when you wanted it to, or shoots right when you wanted left. i hope they remake this game for wii u with more of a one to one movement. they can only do so much patching up an old gamecube game. either way this game sure is a workout! had me sweating by the end of a singles tournament. i do not expect nintendo to spend money on a new mario tennis wiiu, but i can only hope they do it. also, this game works fine on a wiiu.
I received when they told me I was supposed to be receiving. Satisfied with it and I will buy more!
So many reviews, here and elsewhere, compare this game to the GC version. We never had a GC, an XBox, PlayStation, or any other video game system before buying the Wii. We are in our 50’s and have no kids (hence no grandkids). We enjoy Wii Sports. We got Mario Kart Racing and thought it was silly and fun. I bought Power Tennis because it seemed like more fun silliness.If you take your video games seriously and/or typically spend hours at a time every day playing them, then this certainly will disappoint. As a way to have some fun for a short period a few times a week, not to mention be on your feet burning a few calories, this is a fun game. I’m sure the novelty will wear off, but by then we will have more than gotten our money’s worth out of it, fun-wise.
To be honest I didn’t like this game at first. When I first saw it I compare it with Wii Sports and there were many things I didn’t like but then a friend came over and we set up a multiplayer game and then it became fun, what I didn’t realize is that the game ism’t exactly all about tennis, it more about getting “tricks” done during the game of tennis and I now consider this game fun.I think many people like me will rush to give a bad evaluation to this game but I think it is because they like me were expecting a “pure tennis” game like Wii Sports when it is not. It is a fun game once you understand the differences and the challenges in it.
grandkids love it
