Personal review
A little gem this game is and in my opinion the best early sports game for the Gameboy. Much better playable than its NES counterpart. I just wish it had more play modes. There are only four different difficulty settings and even on the hardest level the computer is too easy to beat once you get the right tactic. But as I said, the overall playability is great. The controls reminded me a bit of PC-Engine tennis games such as World Court Tennis.

Choose your opponent's skill level and practice your power serves, skillfully placed shots, lofty lobs and killer cross-courts. You may even recognize a friendly face on the court: Mario. He will serve as umpire and call the close ones.
