This is a video of me playing the Island Open Double Finals against Factory's Costello Brothers ; a 6-0, 6-0, 6-1 win after a 13'30" match. (match begins after about 1'00)
Okay, this is not the best match in the world. I just wanted to show how I play. (and you will answer that I play badly, I admit it ^^)
Some of you will reproach me the fact that I always play the net ; I do that because I don't really trust my doubles partner, so I prefer to play the net in order to finish a rally earlier. This is not without risk though, since if I don't play well enough, I may be lobed for example ; and if I don't react quickly enough, the Coz brothers get the point. And both happened. Plus, A.Coz passed 2 services aces. I wasn't well positioned for returning the serve, I must admit it. Because of his position, I xas expecting him to serve down the line, and he did a cross-court serve. Twice. Both brothers passed a return ace and A.Coz's lob worked 2 or three times.
I repeat it, I'm not pretending I'm the best player ever or anything like that ; even if I love this game, I'm far from being the best...
I've used the Iron racket and shoes, but it is just to earn more EXP points. I won't use this to justify my mistakes, it is a risk I've decided to take so... ;)
Thanks for uploading video of this classic game!

@azalm09 I stopped playing the game for quite a long time, but I still had great memories of it ; one day, I found it in one of my desk's drawers and started a game again... And as you say, it's still just amazingly addicting ! Much better than the GBA version of the game ! And I even started another game on an emulator because I didn't have my Game Boy with me and couldn't wait to play :-D

@Niedenss2 I don't know your opinion, but to me, the game was -and still is- legendary. I got many, many memories of that game and I couldn't wait to play it at a friend's, since he was the one to own the game (it was pretty hard to get it in France at the time) !
