4.0 out of 5 stars It's like Wii Sports Tennis but better!, March 19, 2008
By Mike L. (Omaha, NE) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Sega Superstars Tennis (Video Game)
First off, im a huge fan of Wii sports. I think it's the only game that's consistently in my Wii. That being said, I wanted to try another tennis game that took advantage of the Wii controller. Sega Superstars tennis fits the bill.

Sega Superstars tennis can be played in several modes, most of which are pretty similar to any other sports game: tournament, single-match, multiplayer, etc. The mode that I have been busy playing is the Superstars Mode where you play certain missions based on other Sega games of the past. By doing the missions you unlock new characters, music, courts, and other stuff. It is a great time and will keep you busy for a long time trying to unlock everything.

There are four ways to control the game on the Wii: 1. The Wii remote held like a tv remote 2. The Wii remote plus the nunchuck 3. The Wii remote held horizontally 4. A classic controller I found the Wii remote plus the nunchuck to be the best. You swing the raquet with the Wii remote just like Wii Sports tennis but with the nunchuck you get to move your character around the court rather than let the system move for you. I enjoy being able to move myself where I want way better than how it was in Wii Sports.

The graphics are pretty good. Not exactly amazing for the Wii, but pretty average. If you have been playing Super Smash Brothers Brawl lately, these graphics may disappoint a bit, but the gameplay definitely makes up for the graphics.

The one thing the Wii version is missing that the other systems got is online multiplayer. Im not sure why they left it out, but that is one downfall the game has. Playing local multiplayer is a good time though.

I've only spent a few hours with the game but already I can tell im going to be playing it for a while. The controls are great, the characters are fun, and unlocking stuff is a good time. If you enjoyed Wii Sports Tennis and are looking for more, give this game a shot. You will definitely enjoy it!

1.0 out of 5 stars Might be a decent game, but NOT a decent tennis game!!!, March 26, 2008
By Tony Leonard (Twin Cities, MN) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Sega Superstars Tennis (Video Game)
After mastering Wii Sports tennis, I have been wanting a full-featured tennis game for the Wii. I have heard of some in development but when this game was released, I looked past the fact that the players were video game characters in my excitement for more tennis.

I have played the game twice, and I don't think there will be a third time.

The character's motions are only somewhat related to the movement of the Wiimote. I found it nearly impossible to aim or change the speed of shots. The only way to win a point is to use your "superpower" or outlast the CPU opponent in a 60-shot rally. The ONLY decent thing about the game is the ability to move your player around the court using the nunchuk joystick.

I took the disc out and put Wii Sports back in, and have a new appreciation for how well that game really works. I wish Nintendo would spin each sport off into it's own full-featured game.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Minigames and OK Tennis Play, April 8, 2008
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Sega Superstars Tennis takes the full console version and brings it down to the smaller DS level. This is a challenge for the tennis part - but does quite nicely in the minigames area.

On the tennis side, it's hard to really fault the game. The DS only gives you little arrow buttons to move, unlike the more full joystick controls of a console. It's just hard to play an active sports game with arrows. The game does the best it can, and the graphics are nice, with the different characters and courts. They do the best they can with the system.

You do lose a lot of the "coolness" of the console version, where there is a ton of detail and sound to immerse you in the different worlds. So between the graphics and the controls, I would definitely be playing the tennis part on the main console, not the DS. There are enough other fun DS games to play while I'm traveling, to not have to try to suffer through the tennis game in here.

That being said, I really enjoy some of the mini-games in the set. Just like the console version has a variety of themed mini-games, you get a *different* set of minigames here on the DS. You get Jet Set Radio, ChuChu Rocket!, Curien Mansion, PuyoPop Fever, Virtua Squad, Super Monkeyball, Space Harrier and Sonic.

So in PuyoPop you are hitting tennis balls into vertical piles of PuyoPops, trying to clear them. In Space Harrier you are running along the ground, dodging enemies and trying to hit them with your tennis balls. In ChuChu Rocket you are trying to hit arrows with your tennis balls, aiming the little ChuChus towards the rocket.

Some of the games are similar to the console version - but where on the console they are sidelines to the main tennis game, here on the DS they really do wonderfully with the DS format. It's a lot of fun to play tennis against PuyoPops or to smash away at zombies. What's great is you can take two minutes to have a ton of fun on a given mini-level, while you're waiting in line, and then pop the DS in your pocket when you get up to the counter. So it's a great time filler.

Should you buy a game just for its mini-games? Heck, a lot of DS games *are* just mini-games :) That's where one of the DS's strengths is. And sure, you can actually play the tennis side of it. It's not that the tennis part is bad - it's just not nearly as much fun as on the main console. It's sort of like trying to play full out Wing Commander on a DS. It's just not what the system is made for. But with the minigames being so much fun, and so perfect for the system, I do recommend enjoying those!
