These games include Mario's Tennis for the Virtual Boy, Mario Tennis for the Game Boy Color, Mario Tennis for the Nintendo 64, Mario Tennis: Power Tour for the Game Boy Advance, Mario Power Tennis for the Nintendo GameCube, and New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis for the Wii, Mario Tennis Open for the Nintendo 3DS, as well as Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash for the Wii U. Half of the series have a very large amount of characters, that were only featured in the Mario Tennis series. It is the sister series of the Mario Golf series.

New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis


This game is a port of Mario Power Tennis for the Nintendo GameCube. For the Wii version of Mario Power Tennis (via the New Play Control! lineup), the controls are not like the Nintendo Gamecube version, since the game makes use of the Wii's motion controls. This version includes a tutorial movie to demonstrate how to use the Wii Remote in this game. Players can choose to play with the Wii Remote only, or with the Wii Remote/Nunchuk combination for advanced control of playable character participants.
