Tennis Machine is a mini-game in Mario Power Tennis for the Game Boy Advance. Unlike the other mini-games, Tennis Machine is not beneficial to Max or Tina's Power Shot. Instead, it helps their skill in other categories, such as volleying, topspin, and serving. The objective is to set a new record for that certain level. The player must hit the tennis ball shot from the tennis machine into a certain spot on the court. Gray areas earn the player zero points, orange areas earn the player one point, and flashing green and yellow areas earn the player five points. The locations of the areas change with every hit of the ball. In each level, the machine shoots a certain amount of tennis balls. The machine shoots ten balls on the Beginner difficulty, twenty balls on the Standard difficulty, thirty balls on the Expert difficulty, and forty balls on the Master difficulty. There is also something called a Perfect Score, which is the maximum amount of points the player can earn for a level.
