In this game, each character has a special ability they can use during a match, using the "X" button. For example, Mario has a large hammer with which he can spike the ball at opponents. However, you can also play a normal match without using special moves/abilities. Look Here for more information on such.
Awesome Screen shots can be found here (although the website itself seems to be in French)
Courts:
*There are special courts where obstacles take part in the game, for example:
A) DK Jungle Court: Clap Traps (lil' crocadile sorta things) climb all over the net & if you knock one off with the ball, it falls onto the opponents side & can grab hold of their legs to slow them down
B) Luigi's Mansion Court is full of ghosts that distract you & can also effect the game by tossing banana peels onto the court & doing other likely mischievious acts.
C) Peach's Stadium: Seems like a typical court with great graphics & a lively crowd, but nothing special about the court itself which makes for great standard gameplay.
D) Classic Court: A court with 2D graphics in the background & 2D enemies that likely slow you down upon hitting them (such as koopas from original Super Mario Bros.) A "Pow" block (like in SMB2) lies above the net and i betcha that is used to rid of all enemies walking among the court.
So...Who's SUPER EXCITED about MARIO TENNIS!
