"Nobody has dared to step up and release a tennis game yet on the Wii, given the unchecked popularity of Wii Sports' inaugural tennis game. But finally Sega and Virtua Tennis 3 developer Sumo Digital will break the tennis seal on the Wii in March with Sega Superstars Tennis, a brightly colored and whimsical tennis game with a slew of familiar Sega characters thrown in. The game isn't just for the Wii--unsurprisingly, it's also coming out on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, and Nintendo DS--and we got to try close-to-final versions of the game on the 360 and Wii at Sega's San Francisco headquarters."
For Sega and Sonic the Hedgehog aficionados, Sega Superstars Tennis is a solid blend of simple sports action and glossy fan service.
SEGA Superstars Tennis will be released for the Mac on October 17th, Feral Interactive has today announced. Developed by Sumo Digital Ltd., published by SEGA for consoles and inspired by two decades of SEGA history, SEGA Superstars Tennis sees 16 fan-favourite characters serving up extreme arcade tennis.
Following news that Sega is planning on bringing 20 Dreamcast games to XBLA, and the possibility of Saturn games to follow, NowGamer went straight to Sega and asked them how they mastered the art of fan service.
