Wow. And who said Sega had run out of fresh ideas? ¬_¬

If this is going to be released early next year and we've only just heard of it then hands up who's getting the 'rushed job' vibe again?
Also, it would be nice to see NiGHTS in it just because it might make it more worth buying.
And no online for the Wii version? Why the hell not? Sega, you idiots! >^_^

Oh this is just great. The one thing I praised Sonic about was that he didn't have a hundred Sports game titles like Mario. But now look.....ugh! First golf and now this. Little good can come of this, and I truly wonder what is going through Sega's heads right now.

Like Digi said though, if it has NiGHTS in it I might buy it. Course that will be when its $20....

I don't see the purpose in having unlockable Sega games when we already have Megacollection, Gems, and the Wii. I am curious to see if anything new is actually going to be on there...

Looks like theyre just slapping some new skins/models/levels onto the Virtua Tennis engine. Which can't be a bad thing, surely, seeing as how tight and highly regarded that game is.

Am I the only one looking at this and getting a little nostalgic ? The screens of that Sonic stage is exactly how the god awful Sonic 06 should have looked. That's Greenhill updated right. Motobugs, monitors and everything. Sure, it's cosmetic, but it's good cosmetic : P.

NiGHTS will be there, you know he will. And I'm looking forward to seeing what he's like.

A NiGHTS appearance is a pretty sure thing, I'd say.

The character I'd really like to see in it, though, is Alex Kidd.

Thought: NiGHTS should probably hover over the court; it'd be not good if he was running back and forth like everyone else. Using the drill dash to move side to side could make him a very valuable player. Also, he could do like, fancy serves n stuff..

Well if the purple dream demon appeared in the first Superstars game, then I can't see why not he'd show up in this game. NiGHTS, like Sonic and Amigo, was one of Sega's legends.

Heck our favourite nightmaren even showed up in Sonic Riders, and that was totally unexpected.

Am I the only one looking at this and getting a little nostalgic ? The screens of that Sonic stage is exactly how the god awful Sonic 06 should have looked. That's Greenhill updated right. Motobugs, monitors and everything. Sure, it's cosmetic, but it's good cosmetic : P.


Sonic Next really sucked big time, even Sonic Heroes was better PLUS it had the nostalgic chequerboard cliffs and special stages too!! Elise kissing Sonic is enough to make you spew as well. Especially if you're a SonAmy supporter like me. But Superstars Tennis, that Green Hill Zone style remake looks AWESOME!!!

Oh c'mon, peeps! Of COURSE NiGHTS is gonna be in it! I mean, he's a SEGA superstar, right? =3 Right. We've got Amigo, the Monkies, Sonic...without our fave 'Maren, it wouldn't be cool! Who knows. Maybe we'll get to see some Reala action?

At least it isn't an Eye Toy title like i thought. Can't get that thing to work >_>.

If NiGHTS ain't in it, I'm not buying. Rarely buy anything that has 'SEGA' on the title, anyway, now a-days.

At first I thought this game was a stupid idea, but now I'm becoming kinda excited for it, this game actually looks pretty good. The GHZ court is amazing. I wish they would use this style of graphics in a real Sonic title.

I'm already picking up this game because of Ulala(I'm a super massive Space Channel 5 fan) and NiGHTS will be there too, I'm sure of it.

I'm looking foward to this game, though the thought of Sega characters playing tennis is a little weird! O.O;

But yeah I would buy it!!!! *chuckles* And I definantly want to see NiGHTS playing Tennis!!! ^_^

Seems like a get rich quick scheme by using an already used idea with Sega characters. Guess it depends on how it's done.

Aaaaand our purple friend made the cut. Slipped out in a recent IGN interview found here: http://wii.ign.com/a...2/842664p1.html

IGN: Which character is the office favorite so far?

Woodley: That's pretty tough as I really like a lot of the characters. The development team has done a tremendous job of making each character play very unique especially giving each of the selectable characters their "signature style" that hardcore SEGA fans will really appreciate. NiGHTS is really fun to play as he floats across the court. I like Ulala as well as her Superstar power is a lot of fun to use. Of course, Sonic is really enjoyable as well - there's something cool about seeing him roll into a ball as he's moving along the baseline.


Just figured I'd point that out, now I'm locked into buying it. :D

I wonder what his court will be...?

Check this and this out.

On a side note, I'm interested in this concept. I personally hope it gets good reviews and sales, because, quite frankly, I want people to know that Sega isn't JUST about Sonic. They DO have NiGHTS, Monkey Ball, Jet Grind/Set Radio, Virtua Fighter, Virtua Tennis, Crazy Taxi, Space Channel 5, etc., you know.

I also love various pretty shiny things. I myself write and draw various fan things from time to time. And yes, I also love sleeping, dreaming and being lazy.
That's one more reason for me to save some money for the Wii (hey, that almost rhymes!))

Looking at NiGHTS tennis court makes me want to put dreamer kids as referee... the must be some referee on courts, must there be not?

Come to think of it I guess Julissa would be recording grunts n such for this game too. First look at NiGHTS on the 360.. he's got a gloss coat.. his pink parts have a frikkin' pearl finish.. so do the rings.. wanna see more

Pff there's more shots of Beat in the Aqua Garden than the freakin' stage character himself

I'm training to be a pro wrestler and am a huge fan. I like my music too, guitar bands of all shapes and sizes. As long as it's a good tune you can sing to I'm happy.
I'll probably get this, it being a high profile Sega game and all but I don't know for which system. The Wii might be more fun to play but I want to see the environments and characters in the best detail possible which is pushing me in the direction of the 360.

There is more to say but i end it like this for now.
YEAH NiGHTS plays tennis too. I like tennis and that kewl how they made one for SEGA. It would always be mario that has all the sports games. can Reala play tennis too. I dont know if Reala is in the game but if he was then that would be kewl and Reala would partner up with NiGHTS
