Solid core gameplay, Lovable graphics and animation, Clean online play, Good fun for local multiplayer
Not enough depth or variety, No character-specific announcements or cut-scenes, Unlocks aren't compelling long-term goals
It looks great and plays very nicely, but Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash lacks the depth, the career modes and the content that make a great Mario sports game, and Nintendo's usual attention to detail isn't quite there. With a bargain basement £10 to £15 price...

Abstract: November: not exactly the most auspicious month in the tennis calendar. Sure, you've got the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, with a potential purse of $2 million plus for an undefeated champion. But I doubt that sum factored high on Nintendo's list of rea...
Great fun with friends, Easy to get to grips with, Gameplay is well-executed
Solo play isn't particularly compelling, No Tournament mode
Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash is a decent enough lark that's lacking in longevity Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash is a decent enough lark that's lacking in longevity. Although Nintendo is clearly hoping online multiplayer will help with this, a proper Tournament m...
Enjoyable rallies and atmosphere, Training alongside amiibo works well, New characters on the roster
Bare bones content, No tournament mode, Random online matchmaking
The core gameplay of Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash is enjoyable, but disappointing side modes, online restrictions and gimmicky power-ups make this return go a little wide of the mark...
Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash provides the bare minimum tennis experience, as shallow gameplay is disguised with gimmicks, particularly when it comes to the single player offerings. The pretty graphics and online functionality are largely its only strong poin...

Abstract: Nintendo typically has a large list of first-party releases to fill up their holiday season, and although Star Fox Zero was delayed to next April, that didn't stop another title from taking its place. Cue Camelot's Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash, the third hom...

Abstract: Mario is a talented man. The moustachioed Italian icon has been a plumber, a carpenter, a boxing ref, a fighter, a go-kart racing superstar, an artist, host of the best parties in the Mushroom Kingdom, and a multi-sport athlete. The sport Mario is most fa...
Abstract: I wasn't the worst tennis player in my high school P.E. Class, but that's only because one of my friends lobbed the ball out of bounds and over the back fence every single time (you know who you are, Jennifer). It's been over twenty years since then - my...

Abstract: Mario's been playing tennis longer than most Wimbledon participants have been able to speak – as such, you'd expect him to be playing in the Olympics by now. Oh wait, he does that with Sonic… Well, I suppose for the portly plumber Mario Tennis Ultra Smash...
