I dont know about you, but i'm not waiting till next year for this. So is anyone else going to import this? It comes out 8th November in America, according to NGC, so i'll try and pick up a copy from somewhere. My only thought is ebay so far, are there any really good/cheap places? If they're all stupidly expensive I should be able to get a kind eBayer to sell me a copy. Just like I did with Animal Crossing. Lets hope its compatible with my freeloader. I cant remember which version mine is.

I think it's good. Not as good as the N64 version, but still worth getting.

Absolutely brilliant, been playing it today. The powershots dont spoil it at all, infact they make it more fun. Review to come, if i'm not hungover on Monday after tomorrows events.

Gonna order this from DVDboxoff today, if i can find evidence that it works with Freeloader. Perhaps I'm being a little cautious, but I dont want to be caught out. So any ideas where I could find out? Cheers

Well I dunno, I think the special moves is a nice idea. The defence one is like a last resort option and could probably save you the set/match while the attack one will end what could of been a really long match. At least you can turn it off and if you do, it'll be just like Mario Tennis on the N64, if you play on the classic courses.

I could see the special moves breaking up the flow of the game regardless of the movie clips.
