Mario Power Tennis

[BreakABone]

Well this game seems to have gone under the radar pretty badly this week.

Anyhow, I picked it up as soon as possible, because if it was anything like the first game, well it would be great. But they managed to improve it somehow.

First and foremost, you can play straight up tennis in this game, at the start there are 3 normal courts, and as you progress you are able to unlock normal versions of the gimmick courts, though some of them go through cosmetic changes. Like the Isle Delfino court, is a whole lot more colorful than the gimmick version.. a little too colorful for my taste.

The power shots can be turned off. With that said, they add a great deal of strategy to the game, and unlike what most reviews say, they don't really distract too much.
