Review: Mario Tennis Fever (Switch 2) – Slim For Singles, But An Addictive Core Gives It Online Legs

Nadal it’s cracked up to be?

Having never been any sort of tennis fan for my entire childhood — Wimbledon always seemed a bit posh to me — I fell completely and utterly in love with the sport in my teenage years through the medium of video games.

Yes. Video games. They’re a whole thing! And just as has been the case with American football, basketball, and ice hockey, my initial interest in tennis was stoked by a game; in this case, the incredible Super Tennis on SNES.
