S1E01: Tennis Games -or- What's All That Racket?
Manage episode 389219480 series 3537209
Mike and Jaymo serve up hot takes on Tennis (NES, 1984), Super Tennis (SNES, 1991), Smash Tennis (SNES), and Mario Tennis (N64, 2000) in their epic quest to research and review every retro game in the Nintendo Switch Online catalog!
Mike starts off with a crash course of tennis basics, Jaymo argues that a tennis game is the first speaking role for Mario, the story mode that Smash Tennis set up but then hid is explored, and they match up Mario Tennis' modes to determine if items are better or worse for tennis gameplay.
