Play against family and friends, battle to win missions and play against big villains whilst bring a new level of style and skill to your tennis game. Perfect for children and adults, Mario Tennis Aces is all about strategy and how you play to win so make sure you discuss tactics.

Playing on the Nintendo Switch will offer a whole new gaming experience. Connect to the TV, pick up your rackets and prepare to win the tennis tournament.
Now on the ingenious Nintendo Switch is the fantastic Mario Tennis Aces. This colourful Nintendo game incorporates 15 recognisable characters that all have their own unique characteristics whilst playing intense tennis tournaments that require both skill, speed and strength. 

Play as a tennis all-star with up to 4 players on the court or connect your Nintendo Switch online to compete in an online tournament. Players can even team with other tennis fanatics who have similar traits to themselves; this data is based on your number of wins and your style of gameplay that can help you win the tournament together. You can even gain special rewards such as unique outfits and new characters just for taking part in online tournaments. 

Using tactical tricked out shots, Nintendo has decided to focus on sports strategy and skills for this unique gaming experience. Play around with a variety of shots, such as top spins, slices and blocks. Zone shots allow you to aim and then shoot in your opponent’s area; this is one of the most powerful shots to use during gameplay, and it can even break your opponent's racket in one shot.  

Strategy is not only essential for attacking, it is a must for blocking too! Perfect your timing and protect yourself and rackets from deadly shots such as the zone shot. You can also use a slow-motion mode to chase down out-of-reach shots or block powerful balls.  

However, these special moves come at a cost. Be aware of your energy gauge; unique moves and powerful shots use up your energy quickly, and once this energy runs out, so do you! But, for those who are looking for casual gaming, a ‘Simple Rules Mode’ can be applied to allow only the most basic of shots. This makes Mario Tennis Aces both an adult and child friendly video game. 

Making this tennis gaming experience as unique and immersive as possible, the Nintendo Switch joy-cons can be used as a tennis racket in ‘Swing Mode’ to allow you to get your body moving and feel as though you are really on the court. For fans of the Nintendo Wii, this brings a nostalgic Nintendo element to this new Nintendo Switch game. 

And if that isn’t enough, Nintendo has also included a beautiful ‘Storymode’ that allows you to adopt the persona of one of your favourite characters and play within an RPG-progressive gaming mode. Immerse yourself in an overworld that allows you to journey through pathways and a variety of missions and battles that bring depth to this fun-loving sports title.  

Get ready to rally with this fantastic tennis tournament-style game on the Nintendo Switch that allows you to play against your friends and family no matter where you are.
