Grand Slam Tennis

About

Grand Slam Tennis is a Wii sports game letting you face off in singles or split-screen matches against a mix of active pros and retired icons. The roster includes big names like Federer, Nadal, Serena Williams and legends such as Pete Sampras or Martina Navratilova. You can play through career modes or challenge friends locally. The control scheme prioritizes motion-based swings with basic button inputs for serves and volleys. The game stands out for its Create-A-Player tool which lets you design custom avatars with tailored gear and appearances. You can save up to nine builds and use them across all modes. Pat Cash provides commentary even when he’s a playable character in matches. While the 2009 release date means the player list feels dated now, the split-screen mode and character creation still work well for casual matches.
