"Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash" is a natural evolution from its solid entry "Mario Tennis Open" according to a preview from Nintendo Life. The title has a perfect frame-rate. It also comes with an impressive improvement in physics and stoke play.
The upcoming title features a strong presentation from its chunky and colourful visuals, which is often the case with first-party Wii U games. It comes with 60 fps, which is pleasant to the eyes. It also features superficial effects that add more joy and excitement to the gameplay.
However, the gamer finds something that is potentially a point against the game. "The volume of content is one of the weakest we've seen in a retail game," the report suggested.
Also, it has no motion controls. "In theory as there's an X 'simple shot' button, motions could have been thrown in; yet they're nowhere to be found. It's conventional controls only on the GamePad, Wii U Pro Controller, a sideways Remote or the Classic Controller / Pro."
"Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash" has the following modes according to Pixelkin, Knockout Challenge, Mega Battle, Classic Tennis and Online Multiplayer. For gamers who are fond of amiibo, you can use it in Knockout Challenge and Online Multiplayer modes as your companion in double tennis.
"Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash" will be arriving in North America and Europe on Wii U on Nov. 20, Always Nintendo reported. For those who wanted to pre-order a digital copy of the game, it is available from Nintendo's online store for only $49.99.
