Title: Where is Mario Tennis?
Post by: MarioFoxZelda on February 10, 2003, 10:25:16 AM: I love this game. When is it coming out and what will be added to it. Does anyone know where I can get the original one cheap... used or not?

Post by: Bill Aurion on February 10, 2003, 10:37:24 AM: it is obviously coming sometime this year...most likely during the summer. I read that they are changing the formula so people picking it up for the first time can challenge those that played the n64 version. The graphics are sweet in the preview shots from last year, so hopefully they are even better now

You can bet on that. Nintendo said they're giving both Mario Tennis and Golf a special makeover that will make
gamer's eyes jump out their eyeballs.

Really? So what, the game will come with a pack-in fork controller, that'll be controlled by the CPU (Think R.O.B on NES) and it'll actually make your eyeballs pop out of your head by stabbing you when you lose a match? Crap, I gotta pre-order this baby! =D

Post by: Joshums on February 10, 2003, 01:02:06 PM: Super Monkey Ball 2 does a pretty good job at capturing the gameplay of Mario Tennis and Golf in the party games, without all the wacky gimmics of course. I recommend SMB2 over buying Mario Tennis for N64 until Mario Tennis is released on the cube.

Post by: MarioFoxZelda on February 12, 2003, 01:44:05 PM: Ok but where can i get a new or used version of the 64 one?

Post by: MarioFoxZelda on March 16, 2003, 06:25:53 AM: No1 knows still? I want a used or even cheap new Mario Tennis 64 but the only place I can find it is at rental stores for rent... dont make me rent it and lose my membership to my local rental store.

Post by: GoldShadow1 on March 17, 2003, 12:49:59 PM: Honestly, what's the big deal about Mario Tennis? The N64 game was pretty good, just go play that. What more could the possibly do with it? It's TENNIS!

Post by: Gamefreak on March 17, 2003, 02:34:25 PM: It's tennis turned from
boooring ------> insane multiplayer!
I hate tennis. I hate most sports. I'd rather do something than watch others do something. But Mario Tennis was awesome multiplayer goodness. Of course i was playing myself..
Title: Where is Mario Tennis?
Post by: GoldShadow1 on March 17, 2003, 07:17:06 PM: I don't doubt that Mario Tennis is a pretty good game. But what's the point in a GameCube version? There's only so much you can do with tennis. I could see a reason for a new Mario Golf, though.

Post by: MarioFoxZelda on March 17, 2003, 07:31:17 PM: I do hope they add some sort of story to this new mario tennis.

Post by: Mario on March 17, 2003, 10:16:04 PM: I hope they add RPG elements to the Gamecube version, because Mario Tennis on Gameboy kicked ass!

Post by: godwheel on March 18, 2003, 05:57:36 AM: I've been wondering what the deal is with Mario Tennis. I want this game so badly it hurts. I want Golf also, but Tennis just tops my list at the moment. WHERE ARE YOU!

Is there any logic in this? Is this because the holes can be designed differently? But then again, the courts can be different.
You might be able to find a copy of Mario Tennis for the 64 at Game Trader if there is one in your city. Or perhaps at Wal-Mart, I heard they try to stock all the "Mario" games for the 64, but I don't know.

Post by: GoldShadow1 on March 18, 2003, 02:51:59 PM: Yeah, Mario Golf 2 can have totally different courses. There's very little you can do to change the basic tennis formula, though. Yeah, you can have different stages, but it's very limited. You can have some special stuff like the Bowser stage, but if it's anything like the original (or for that matter, anything like tennis) it's going to be mainly focused on a normal court.

Post by: Reverse_Gecko on March 18, 2003, 03:40:11 PM: It would be cool if they release mario tennis and golf on the same disk, and mabey even mario kart. I really want them but I dont want to shove out $100 for both.

If I could only get one I would get tennis.
Mario Tennis = Tennis(the best sport) + more fun = really really really fun
Mario Golf = Gold(tremendously boring sport) + lots more fun = really fun

Post by: Mario on July 06, 2003, 10:26:26 PM: Bloody hell, i cant believe we STILL have no idea when Mario Tennis will come out. I thought it would at least be out by now, when i bought a GC i was expecting Mario Tennis about a year later... more like 3 years later :\
Title: RE: Where is Mario Tennis?
Post by: PIAC on July 06, 2003, 10:29:14 PM: well... given its a tennis game... its going to be pretty damn good (hopefully) given the developement time unless nintendo is delaying it for some other reason? to conincide with mario golf? no... that seems... pointless

i dunno but i want it!
Title: Where is Mario Tennis?
Post by: DRJ on July 07, 2003, 06:27:26 AM: The N64 game was fantastic. I cant wait for this one. I'm not sure about the mario golf game, but mario tennis is a definate purchase for me. Release it now #$@$@
