Additional information
Detailed Description: Mario and more than a dozen classic Nintendo mascot buddies take to the tennis courts for this one, which like Mario Golf before it features simplistic graphics, and a refreshingly fast arcade-style mixed with some deep control mechanics that you're bound to overlook if you don't pay attention. Mario Tennis delivers a solid single-player experience with lots of hidden secrets to keep you coming back for more, but it's the title's unsurpassed multiplayer experience that immortalizes it as one of the best games you can get for your Nintendo 64. All-in-all, the title features 16 playable characters including Mario, Luigi, Toad, Princess, Bowser, Baby Mario, Waluigi and more -- all with unique attributes of power, speed, control and spin, as well as a multitude of original courts and power-up weapons.
Advantages Just about everything, from multiplayer to play modes. Disadvantages Having only two control buttons makes it sort of confusing to hit the exact shot you want
...MarioTennis for the Nintendo64 is an awesome game. It is one of the best games the N64 has seen, and at the very least is the best tennis game of all time. The gameplay engine NEVER slows down, even in four-player doubles, some of the ball effects are amazing, there are greatly varied modes, classic Nintendo sounds, and simple controls: A and B hit, with a bunch of variations. All this from the guys who made Mario Golf. An amazing game, Mariotennis is, go out and buy it as soon as you can....

Title: MarioTennis
Console: Nintendo64
Price: I think now about 10 pounds.
MarioTennis is fun and addictive. The game is really good for sleepovers and when your mates come round. There are about twenty characters including Walluigi, Birdo and even Toad though I’m not sure how he can hold a tennis racket as he’s so small! The game’s got lots of different courts and ways of playing, including singles, doubles, ring shot and more. It can be set on different difficulties so you can work your way up to the hardest cup. I give this game 8/10

...This is a review on a remake of a classic Super Mario game called Mario Power Tennis. The original version of this game was made for the Nintendo64, called MarioTennis, but the newer / better version for the Game Cube is far better, and much more enhanced.
Features
*******
This game is different to the original version of MarioTennis with all these new features. You get to do new moves, like power moves, and defensive moves. Every character has its own unique power move and defensive move. A power move consists of smacking a ball toward the enemy with a powerful weapon or a powerful attack of some sort. A defensive move is normally what you would use to get the ball when it is out of your reach, very useful at most times.
In a tennis game, you can do singles or doubles, so one on one, or two on two. Also there are four...
