Take a break from the courts and play tennis on your computer. These are just a few of the hottest tennis games on the market today. All links are for Amazon.com, but can also be found in local stores. If you know of a game that's not on the list, drop us an email and tell us about it so we can check it out.
Mario Tennis - Game
Boy or Nintendo
Mario Tennis's exhibition mode puts you in the Tennis Academy, where you
slowly build up your character's skills (doubles or singles). As you rise in the
ranks by challenging other characters and upgrading your equipment, you'll play
eventually against Mario himself. You can play as one of many Nintendo mascots,
including Donkey Kong, Luigi, and Princess Peach. There also are a few minigames
that will sharpen your skills and can unlock other levels.
Virtua Tennis - Sega
Even if you're not fond of sports titles in general, the simple pick-up-and-play
feel and speedy on-court action in Virtua Tennis make it a worthy
addition to any game library. Sega did an excellent job making sure even those
unfamiliar with the rules and strategy of tennis will be able to jump right into
the game. With a little practice you can pop lobs, perform an overhead smash, or
even return the ball with a through-the-legs trick shot.
Snoopy Tennis - Game
Boy
Take away Snoopy, Linus, Charlie Brown and all the other familiar characters
you are able to play with, and do you know what you have? You still have a very
solid tennis video game. The gameplay is actually very fun, and regardless of
the sentimental value one may hold for Snoopy and the gang, it's an addicting
game. It's a pretty easy game once you get the hang of it.
Amazing Tennis - Sega
Trade in your racquet for a game controller. The category for sports home
video games has just taken a quantum leap forward into a new dimension of
realism- Amazing Tennis utilizes 22 different planes of depth and motion picture
quality animation to provide a revolutionary gaming experience- the next best
thing to being out there on the court yourself!
