despite playing through most of this game as a kid on the wii, I gave it a whole complete playthrough on the 360 because not only did I not actually finish this game on the wii, but this game was basically one of the many multiplatform games that I was always curious about the HD version of.
It do be tennis. I definitely haven't played enough tennis games to really say how realistic/accurate/good/whatever of a tennis game this is, but it played alright. The game doesn't really tell you how to play in-game, and the manual does a trash job explaining things so good luck, I guess.
While I may not be the biggest tennis fan, I am a huge sega fan and in the category of sega fanservice this game also is a bit in hmm territory. It felt like the amount of content in here was rushed, as there are a lot of categories on the sega challenge map that only have like one event just to unlock the one specific character/stage that comes from that series. Outrun and After Burner get their own stages, but Space Harrier for some reason doesn't despite having a whole minigame based around it? Why do the Puyo Puyo and Chuchu Rocket minigames take place on other series courses, yet the Virtua cop minigame not only gets its own recreation of the intro of Virtua cop as a setpiece, but also its own unique gameplay style???? It's certainly strange.
Overall its okay. They bundled this with a lot of Xbox 360 systems and yea, it's a totally serviceable family tennis game. The simplistic gameplay and real lack of committal to references just kinda makes this game kinda basic and forgettable, I guess.
