I didn't expect to like a sports game so much. I'm not into sports video games, but this one entertained me a lot. It has its quirks, like sometimes the AI does weird things and doesn't respond well (talking about doubles matches), but everything else is great.
I'll try more Mario sports games, maybe even make the leap to more 'serious' games of this style.

It's tennis with a Mario skin. Don't expect anything special.
Not as great as I recall.
played this before but didn't realize how fun this was! super simple but beating this is quite a chore in the best way possible.
Who played this
Bom jogo, são poucas copas mas a dificuldade é muito alta, a final do star cup foi extremamente difícil de passar.
Pra jogar sozinho a ho que ele tem pouco conteúdo, mas deve ser divertido jogar em dupla com alguém do mesmo nível.

One of the highlights of my first professional job was having an office-wide Mario Tennis power ranking that ran for months after I brought my Wii into the conference room one day. Thank you to all clients who put up with late work because of our five-set matches.
O melhor: Simples, mas com um bom desafio
O pior: Não poder pausar durante um rally
Apresentando: Waluigi
Sequência do grande clássico do Virtual Boy (/s), Mario Tennis para Nintendo 64 é um jogo fácil de pegar e jogar, usando apenas dois botões e combinações entre eles para cada tipo de rebatida. O modo principal Tournament começa bem fácil, só que aumenta consideravelmente a dificuldade conforme cada Cup, a final da Star Cup em especifíco deu um bom trabalho de vencer, já que a CPU pode ser bem apelativa as vezes. O jogo tem modos Single e Double, não gostei muito de jogar Double com CPU mas imagino que com outro player seja divertido. Também há personagens e quadras para desbloquear, além de uns modos extras que são interessantes mas enjoam rápido. Enfim, uma opção Arcade divertida, principalmente se puder aproveitar o multiplayer.

It sure is
Good first effort. Did give us Waluigi, so that’s bonus points.
Não joguei os outros jogos, apenas este e os do portátil. Me divertir, mas também me estressei também.
Periodically revisited this one, not as good as Power Tennis imho but still shines as near flawless compared to Aces.
I feel like this is the best version of this game, but Power Tennis is cool too
shy guy best character
WEEWWW WOOWOOO
WEEWWW WOOWOOO
It doesn’t make sense how good this is, I could play a couple of sets every week or so for the rest of my life.
I remember really loving this but I know that playing today it doesn't holds up. Still Boo is the best with the tricky shot
its boring
tennis but good
eh it's alright, outdated
made boo the hardest character in any game ever to go against, for no reason
Float-feelin' controls we nonetheless enjoyed in yet another perfectly decent multiplayer outing.
My Mario bias had me picking up whatever was available. This was actually a very good 4 player game as a young kid at the time
Basic as hell
It's a good arcade game, the game feel is on point and the game system satisfactorily measured, but what made this game enter the history of video games forever is, of course, the birth of Waluigi himself, and I don't think we'll ever be able to be grateful enough for it.
This one is still a lot of fun considering its age but surprisingly tough to finish!
The temperature is starting to cool off and the sun is rising later in the morning, minute by minute, marching on towards the end of another glorious Summah. So too is my 2023 Summah Games series coming to a close. Although Persona 5 Royal was a game I slated for July, it took far too long to finish and encroached on my last set of games, which I am now officially starting with Camelot's Mario Tennis. Finally, something short and simple - like me.
Not only is this a welcome reprieve from the lengthy and demanding games I've been mired in for the last month (I'm still trying to finish Pikmin 4), but the simplicity of Mario Tennis is also its greatest asset. There's no story mode over-encumbered with dodgy gimmicks or elaborate tennis-based boss battles to clear; there's singles, doubles, tournaments, and then tucked away are a few bonus modes like the Mario Kart inspired Bowser court. If you haven't guessed, I'm not a particularly big fan of Aces, I like a trim Mario Tennis, no frills, just power smashing tennis balls directly into Baby Mario's face for me, please.
This is also the game that gave us Waluigi and brought back Princess Daisy, which I probably don't need to tell you, but it's another point in its favor. Regrettably, I am also docking that point because Nintendo got cold feet on designing a Wa-daisy and Wa-peach. Despicable. The world needs more delinquent female characters. I won't forget or forgive this cowardice.
Is it a Summah game? Uh, yeah. Clearly. Tennis is like, at least in the top five Summah sports, it's really not far off from beach volleyball. In fact, you're all lucky DOA: Extreme Beach Volleyball doesn't work on the 360 or that's what I'd be reviewing instead, because you gotta respect the Summah sports hierarchy. I'm not really an athletic person, but when I was in my teens I was actually quite good at volleyball and tennis, and I attribute my prowess to how in-sync I am with that Summah energy.
Unfortunately, I'm in my 30s and I've worked desk jobs for the last decade, so when I move around too much my body starts making weird clicking sounds and hurts in ways it's not supposed to. Of course I've spent hours standing in my yard, absorbing the sun's mighty energies to replenish my reserves, but it just isn't providing me the boost it used to and according to my doctor it keeps giving me something called "Melanoma."

A pretty fun tennis game. It's a good time to play with others.
The best sports game that isn't Cyberball 2072.
The controls feel goddamn perfect even with the wiggly waggly little plastic buttplug that is the n64 control stick.

As fun as tennis can be (somewhat fun)
Great tennis gameplay in a colorful, visually appealing package with a good variety of characters, courts and game modes. Probably the most underrated multiplayer N64 title.
