I like it a lot, but I'd probably pay $20 total for it.  I'm a big fan of all the Mario themed games so I'm kinda biased toward them.  For the Gamecube though, Metroid Prime I & II are awesome along with F-Zero and RE4.  I'd check your local Gamestop, they're Gamecube used and new selection is huge so you're bound to find something fun for a low price.  Thank goodness all their games are backwards compatible for the Wii, long live Cube games!

It is a great game specially when you play with three friends, but after a while it gets boring because the Single-Player tournaments are way too easy.

I didn't like it. Courts had too much 'stuff' going on and interfered with the game of tennis too much. Power shots, a few distractions...okay fine, but moving courts and junk getting in the way is too bothersome. I don't want to play a game where LUCK accounts for more than skill.

yes but if luck counts more than skill, its a fair game for anyone.

You played in one of those baseball leagues where everyone got a trophy didn't you?

i owrn this game myself and absolutely love it! its a 4-player that will have you and your friends stressing over points, overheads, and powershots. Its just fun. But don't pay over $20 for it.

Incredibly dissapointing. If you do get it, disable the special moves immediatley. They take all the fun out of the game.
