This game rocked. I loved the first game and I also liked how they built on that story. You can make your own character and train hard. Unlike the original, you can do all training sessions over and there are power shots. Buy to find out what these are. There is more excitement, better graphics, more to do. Best part: you can run inside! Corniness aside, this game rocks. The island open is cool too. The only things I didn't like were:

1. Only one island open.
2. Spent years listening to characters talk.
3. Couldn't fit my name on the lines. (5 letters max)
4. Nothing to do after you're done with the game, unless you can play against friends. (This is true with ALL mario games!)
5. Couldn't choose clothes or make character different skin colors. Not everyone's white Mario!!!

Those are the only drawbacks. If the game still sounds good, get it. Promise you won't regret it!

Great portable tennis.

I find this game better than other tennis games because I think the rpg elements bring a lot of depth to an otherwise above average sports title.
If you liked Mario Golf for the GBA then you'll like this game.
Once you've finished the main story there's still a lot of replay value left in the exhibition matches feature.

It's cool!

This is Mario Tennis,this game is realy fun. you could play multiplayer, and other two games in it to. There is power tour, exhibition, and training. you get lots of new peaple, but the ones that stay here are, Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Peach, Donky Kong and Waluigi. The point obout power tower you have to find your way to the tennis players to play tennis, There is also training to. And exhibition is, just playing tennis. you could use the SP, DS and the gameboy but the psp I dont no abuut that. I almost forgot, The people also have Power-Ups THIS GAME IS SO MUCH FUN!

Good Tennis Game, But....

My kids really enjoyed the tennis play. And this worked real well with my plan of teaching them to play tennis (in real life!) b/c I've found that they master a game (or at least the rules) on the playground much faster if they have a game to play at night. But... we were disapointed to find that if you play this game on the DS, you have to restart from the beginning every time (no saving) & there's no "quick game" to get you right into the tennis play. This is a story-based game that tends to be more story than tennis.

Kinda Simple but Same Mario Tennis Fun

Overall the game is a good one considering it is a GBA game, and it is mario. I personally have liked all of the tennis this is, the first handheld tennis game I have appreciated

almost a classic

this is a fun little game by nintendo, very well put together. it's a pretty diverse game too, for the less-than-diverse game that is tennis. a lot of different matches to play, different modes / minigames, lots of different opponents to beat. it's a pretty easy game to beat, even a very mediocre gamer like myself is able to finish it in a few weeks.

what is not cool about this game is the extremely tedious and boring rpg, the endless annoying conversation between matches that you can not skip, but have to plow your way through. aaarghhhhhh it sucks! another minor point is that some of the power shots are almost impossible to see coming, let alone block, and can only be countered by using a defensive powershot. and why can opponents do curve shots all the time, but we can not?

other than that, this is one of my favorite games on the gba, still the greatest little system available, with an unbeatable catalogue.

One of the most fun games I have.

This game is incredibly fun! You have a choice of going on a power tour, Playing an exhibition game, or do some training. The good thing about power tour is that you make your own character and use him to go up ranks in Junior, Senior, and Varsity classes. If you were successful with those, you take a trip to the island open. If you win the island open, Mario invites you to Peach's arena which is up in the clouds, and play unstoppable exhibition games.

The good thing about Exhibition games is that that you a variety of choices after you've completed the power tour. You have Mario, Luigi, Peach, Waluigi, Donkey Kong, Bowser, any players you've made, and kids that you've beaten during the power tour. You can choose doubles or singles"(Doubles is much more fun)". Your opponents' or partner's skills could be be Novice, Intermediate, Expert, and Pro.

Pros.

-A lot of characters
-A lot of varieties
-You could do training to build up your character
-you could choose 4 different levels for your opponents
-you can choose 5 different kinds tennis courts
-the power tour is so adventurous
-Characters have power ups

Cons.

-Exhibition does'nt have Yoshi or Wario
-You can't have Two against one
-the power tour characters are really stupid looking

fun game

I won this game! I won the peach dome(after you win Open Island). Anyway,enough about the bragging. It is so cool! Elroy was hard and I only beat him once. And I guess I should'nt have bragged because I set it on Easy :( The best part is playing as Paula. These players are in vararsity so you probably don't know them unless you got there. When I was facing Will(in Open Island) he was TOUGH! And my character was lv.41 when I faced him. I was on singles. When I played him on doubles HE WAS TOUGHER! Tori was easy on singles. Enough about the memories. Now I'll talk about the bad and good things on a list.
GOOD THINGS:
It is fun after you beat the game
Play as many characters on the exibitation
Go up levels
Train(you have to be a senior to get PS)
Have good times
Pkay as a girl\boy
Prove against Clay that you are strong(or Ace if you played as boy,I name mine Mely because I am a girl and I played as a girl)
Earn the championship
BAD THINGS:
You can never see the masked players
You can never play against Alex
You can't save the game in the middle of a match without starting over.
C-YA!

This game is tottally the awesome. I love chosing how strong your player is,going on the tour,playing as Peach,and playing the game. Um...I really don't own this game but, I am getting it for Christmas(as far as I know). I tried it at a store. It was cool to me. Pay no attention to what I rated this. I like using Peach's special move. Hearts come up on her racket as she throws it sometimes. Every character has a special ability. I think the characters you make are the coolest (I dunno much about this game but, I may be wrong). I think it is challenging enough for me. I suggest you buy it. This is just my opinion. Buy it at your own will.
