Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash

You know something is wrong when Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival has way more content than this game.
 
who even cares for this game except for parents who dont know what else to buy for chistmas and people on this forum anymore?

Reviews have come out and they are pretty negative. I've seen a couple reviews and I am shocked by the state of the final game.

This sounds like a lazy cash grab attempt. This amount of content in the game for $40 is unacceptable. No variety of courts, next to no modes (even tournament is gone) and next to none single player support. Also the really dickish choice to not add online with friends is baffling. It shows the developers of this game do not care with what they are making. If they cared, they would want it to live up to past games and surpass them. MP10 had more to offer than this and I wasn't happy with that. This was clearly made this within less than a year and rushed to holiday release.

It goes for $50 last time I remember. But not even $40 can justify its price tag.

Not sure if it's the developers not caring or they just heavily rushed this game to meet the deadlines. I mean, the graphics and character-specific animations are there, so maybe they kind of cared?

Unlike Ultra Smash, people expected amiibo Festival to be shitty from the start
 
I literally read the IGN review and a 4.8/10? This lowers my expectations a little, but I'm still going to get the game. Hopefully. i get my moneys worth

But in the end, Amiibo Festival looks to be quite ok.
 
Ultra Smash is the worst Mario Tennis evah! It's even worse than Open.

And again, Power Tennis was the last really good Mario Tennis game. Any one agreeing with this statement of mine?

Ultra Smash is an incomplete tennis game and is much less boring than Wii Sports Club's tennis but even worse.

It doesn't have the fun factor of Power Tennis. It doesn't have any redeeming factors in it.

That's an understatement for everyone else. :P

No, amiibo Festival is even worse off. They even compared it unfavorably to Mario Freaking Party 10.

It's probably the worst Mario-themed Mario Tennis, but I still think those strange handhelds where Mario is an unlockable character and Wario is omitted in Power Tour is even more of a turn-off, but I guess those games are good in their own right since a sizeable amount of people beg for the RPG mode to be in Mario-themed Mario Tennis games.

They're probably just phoning it in from here on out so they can get the Wii U over and done with.
 
I was looking forward to buying Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash this Friday, but on the looks of several negative reviews, I think I'll wait until Christmas and see if it's popular at the time. :dk:

I don't think Ultra Smash is worth it. I think you're better off with Power Tennis.
