Mario Power Tennis (GC) - Review

Game Overview:  Players of all ages can pick up the game and instantly start whacking tennis balls around and yet a deep level of challenge awaits those willing to master it. Build up more and more skill points as you play to use stronger and stronger shots with all kinds of spin.

Everyone's favorite Mushroom Kingdom characters are here! Donkey Kong and Bowser can hit insanely powerful Megaton Balls, finesse players like Shy Guy can use instant Tornado Returns and defensive masters like Luigi have all kinds of tricks in their bags.

Each of the 14 characters has a special strength. Peach, Daisy and Shy Guy are master technicians; Waluigi specializes in defense; Wario, Donkey Kong and Bowser rely on brute force; Koopa Troopa, Diddy Kong and Yoshi are speed demons; and arch-tricksters Boo and Bowser Jr. can put nasty english on their shots. Mario and Luigi are well-balanced characters, but it's a sign of the game's depth that they follow quite different strategies when controlled by the CPU. Luigi crowds the net, while Mario relies on a baseline game.

Mario Power Tennis is most realistic on the Peach Dome's regular, clay and grass courts, then quickly gets very crazy with bizarre courts inspired by Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario Sunshine, Donkey Kong, Bowser's Castle and Wario.

You choose from four difficulty levels, three ball speeds and three main modes: Exhibition, Tournament and Special Games. In Tournament, battle your way through eight-charcter playoffs.
