i found out that ages ago in the base game and nobody seemed interested.
My sister was always interested, so was I.

(also he comes with a Baby Luigi costume so....er....that means I can pretend Baby Luigi is playable???? Why not just make Baby Luigi playable huh? ;~~~~~~;)

im curious too. no link anywhere or something?

Baby Mario originally appeared just as a name in a line of text considering sound, but it appears he now actually has content in an update.
 
When I decided to check the game after a long dormant period, I am surprised at some of the changes! Like for example, the tournament is now set up to be 3 rounds instead of 5, like the CPU one. However, the bad news is that I can't seem to find other people online, so no unlocking Luma early for me unfortunately.

The Adventure mode has some new challenges, though I only finished one.

The Co-op challenges sound like a great idea, but it's marred by the lack of people online so I didn't get to play it (and unlock coloured Yoshis).

Thank you for reading.
 
Well, the only thing to get online tournament characters early is to play the online tournament by the time they come live. Mine's at 10am AWST (I always call it the "Nintendo Midnight", that most games such as Splatoon 2 starts a new day at this schedule), so yours depends on your timezone.

I want to get Pauline early by the time the (March?) online tournament goes live.
 
Here's an interesting find in a Mario Tennis Aces datamine. It hosts a surprise that I don't think anybody would expect without looking at it, so be mindful if you don't want to be spoiled!

Yep, that's right: Link is found in the datamine, and he has two other skins to go along with it: his Dark Link counterpart and the Breath of the Wild counterpart. Presumably he will have a tennis racquet but maybe he will maintain his sword like in the images above.

Now we're talking. Put Link in all Mario games, please.
Put Mario in all Link games, and no, not just Talon or his relatives
 
After creating a thread about it on GameFAQs, someone later chimed in with a confirmation that it's actually fake:

It's a shame really because I would love to play tennis as Link.
