About Mario Tennis Fever:
Hit the court for explosive action in the latest Mario Tennis game!
Join Mario and friends for some Mushroom Kingdom style-tennis! Use topspins, slices, lobs, and other familiar shots—along with other fancy footwork and new defensive maneuvers—to outpace your opponents on the court. Keep a rally going, build up your Fever Gauge, and unleash powerful Fever Shots that can be augmented with special effects by equipping Fever Rackets.
