I'm amazed that the DS still hasn't gotten a good tennis game after being on the market for what, three years. ;_;

Well you're wrong about that, there has been one there among the first games released to the DS and it's one of the most awesome tennis games I've played. The game I'm talking about is "Prince of Tennis 2005: Crystal Drive", and it was only released in Japan in the winter of 2004. It's got a very realistic feel to it and it won't really give the balls to you like I feel many tennis games do nowadays, meaning you have to be in a good position when you swing your racket, and you can't just mash buttons until you hit the ball. The system is very sensitive (you can actually get a lot of outs and faults/lets in this game if you're not careful, which I find is a very rare occurrence in most tennis games) and you really have full control over your character, a huge amount of shots is available. On top of this, the characters have the cool specials that the Prince of Tennis series is known for and it really doesn't ruin the gameplay as it's very well balanced.
If you are a big tennis game nut this game is a must have. Even though it's in Japanese you don't really need to understand Japanese to be able to play it.
Anyways, to get to the real topic, I have no hope for this new Sega tennis game. I think it looks like crap and probably will play as such.
