 Snesdrunk Hey everyone and welcome to snesdrunk plays super tennis As you can see I decided to demonstrate this game by advancing all the way to the final of the first tournament of the game It is on a clay court. It's the Rio Open and I am John the mighty John against Kelly Kelly Kelly's a guy by the way. No offense to any dudes named Kelly, but Here we go three sets This is just kind of a not a tutorial so to speak but just kind of a Demonstration of this game like how to play it and the reason the step one to Being decent at this game is picking the right player and if you're new at this game I would pick John ten times out of ten and the reason is because he is a power player You know the game had incorporates all these different shots messed up messed up the timing there the game incorporates all these different kind of shots with topspin backspin overhand But all you need to do with John is press the B button stay on the baseline That that the baseline would be the bottom line there where and don't ever rush the net or anything like that And you can just blow the ball right by I'm just like I did just there I'll get a more into the detail of how to do that as I as we go here. We get this shinsi change court thing But yeah returning in this game is tough Really that what you need to do step one is get to the ball That should be priority one when you're playing this game get to where the ball is position yourself to where the ball is headed And step two would be to press the press the whatever shot you're going to play press the B button In John's case you want to hit the B button every time because that's your power shot and step three is to hold the hell out of a Direction Whether it be left or right and it's really kind of a feel thing like that like that's hard to do at first But once you get there you press the B button like You want to be you want to be control your swing at control the direction of where the ball is going to go as you're swinging So to speak so it really is like split second Missed that one it is like split second Differential and that's that's why this game is so is based on feel so much So it really takes a lot to get used to but that's why I recommend starting with John more of a power player So you see you can just he'll run to the computer will run to the net most of the time and you can just blow it right by him Now for serving All you do is you wait for the ball to come down until it's almost right back in your hand And while that you toss the ball into the air Press the directional pad towards the middle of the court twice Damn, that's that one up Like right here, it's easier for me to do it on this side for some reason Well, he got to that one, but if you hit the directional pad twice You will um, it'll hit like right down the middle right on the line again, it takes a lot of practice takes some Some feeling out to do I still mess up the timing a lot as you can see so this game is pretty tough, but yeah, it's Ah There we go Yeah, stay back press the B button I'll like it stuff So let's see if I can no couldn't ace another one by him, but I did win the point Got a buy I'm on the sideline there. I don't even know if I'm getting this tennis terminology, right to be honest with you I'm not exactly mr. Tennis Now quickly for this point. I think I'll show off like some of the Other kinds of shots you can hit I just want to get ahead first Like if you press the a button messed up Mess that one up there. He hit it didn't hit where I thought he was gonna hit it See it like sounds kind of different. Wow. What an idiot. Why did he hit that? That was heading out But yeah, if you hit the a button instead It's kind of like a floaty shot that sends the player all the way back to the net Yeah, and if you hit the y button that hits like a high shot that will attempt to hit Over his head if he comes up to the net like that technically That's what you're supposed to do quote-unquote if the player comes to the net as you hit it You hit it over his head I never do that I'd rather just power it right by him so we're up for nothing Again the same thing applies to serves like if you press a on a serve. I don't think there's a y serve But if you press a on a serve, it'll be like a loopy kind of Like that. It's it's a safer serve if you miss your first one and you want to make sure you don't double-fault You don't hit two out two serves out in a row It's a safer serve. It'll it's it's a better chance. It'll go it'll go in and be playable But I would rather do the power game. That's my that's my thing See if I can finish off this Set without giving up a point here Should steal the game's game grumps joke here where they say something to each other as they cross like asshole All right, John The hardest part of this game is returning. I think returning serves especially against another power There are similar power players like John that serve the hell out of the ball and it's hard to keep up That's the especially serving from the top. It's another aspect of this game. That's a bit tricky is that Oh Just miss that one entirely Is that you serve? From both sides of the court. Oh miss that one You serve from the bottom and from the top and you also return from the bottom and the top and that really there's different Like it's much much easier for me on the bottom for some reason to serve and return On the bottom as you can see I might lose this point here And Yeah But it does like I said, there's this game is a hundred percent feel to it Like there's that split second between when you press the B button and when you press the directional pad If you don't if you just hit the B button and you don't press the directional pad the ball just goes straight to the middle of Your opponent's side. It'll default to the middle. So you always want to hit a direction like that Alright is to win the set right here. Oh and another thing. I forgot to mention. I'll point it out next time. There we go Well, I'll point it out next time. I'm defending a serve Serving from the top here two sets. All I got to do is win the set and I win the match That's just luck hit the top of the net and bounce in just barely There we go. All right Yeah, it's a bit Tricky serving from the top too. It just has a different feel to it than the bottom for whatever reason I can't really explain. It's one of those things. That's hard to explain. It's just when you play the game You know it, you know what I'm talking about. It just has a different feel to it That's one of the appeals of this game I think is that the that way the match is never really boring it stays consistently entertaining Son of a bitch So when returning a serve The first thing I do is just tap the d-pad downward to get my Serving it right past me press the d-pad and give yourself a little that'll give yourself an extra split second. It's terrible You should probably concentrate. Yeah, tap the d-pad before he serves There we go Wow, that was embarrassing. I just got We're tied at one. This might take longer than I thought. Sorry folks Yeah, serving from the bottom for me for whatever reason is easier It just like I said, you just lift the ball right when the ball I'm sorry as the balls in the air you tap the directional pad in that case It's to the right twice just one two and then you Damn and then you Like right here one two bam Didn't quite get it that time but one two bam There we go, and you wait for the ball to almost come right back down into your hand So it's pretty tough. It takes a lot to get used to I mean, I've played a million matches that I've beaten this game so And that's 10 billion matches another thing worth mentioning is that clay We're playing on this brown surface here, and that's clay. Ah, man and that is a Little bit slower of a surface. So the ball takes kind of a higher bounce You know, it's clay as opposed to grass and hardcore grass is much much faster That it doesn't bounce the ball doesn't bounce off the grass nearly as high The so it's it's a much it's much more predicated on speed on movement Clay is is power basically like you have to when the ball bounces up to you You have to smack the shit out of it to draw it past them past your opponent See that time I didn't get the directional pad in time I messed up my timing there and so as a result the ball went straight back to your the opponent like right in the middle out So if that happens you're you'll never get it past him. It's all about getting that feel correctly Have I mentioned that enough times feel I think I should say the word feel 27 more times There we go on to let's go the other side this time it does help to go to Switch up the sides on your serve every once in a while See that time the ball just bounced right to me so that gave me plenty of time to set up press the B button and then Lean on the left directional pad to hit it way to the left as I'm swinging And it's all timing not only is it timing with pressing the B button to hit the ball But it's timing with the directional pad too. So it's like a two-fold One-two split second like literally split second timing and it takes a lot of practice, but that's how you do it I'm hoping to finish off Kelly here. Yeah, this is the Rio open. This is the first tournament in the game Get there. There we go. Get there. There we go the first tournament in the game and I think after this you go to like Australia on your world tour or whatever and you That's when you play like what the game's equivalent of the Australian open is I Think in this game. It's called the Melbourne open All right, just one more point serving for the match here So and that's considered a major what I didn't get to that in time That's considered a major tournament. So right after this you're thrown into the fire This is your first tournament and then you're thrown into a hard court Major final. Wow. I'm not getting any breaks here. I'm down There we go. I Think this game has a total of about like 12 tournaments. I want to say something along those lines Didn't get there. Man, I'm gonna lose this point There we go And of course as I mentioned in my review, I'll link it here. Oh, I lost. I lost that point. Wow now It's only five to I'm still one point away from winning As I mentioned in the review I did of this game the Hairstyles and the clothing and pretty much everything about this game is very very early 90s Not only is it early 90s, but it's early 90s tennis which had its own ridiculousness Just Google image search Andre Agassi and you'll see what I mean He wore some of the most ridiculous clothes and then he wrote in his book that I Think after like 92 or something like that he eventually wore a wig that was kept on with like several dozen hairpins Yeah, tennis was a whacked out From a visual standpoint, I guess you could say back then I guess it's still kind of is oh Am I gonna lose this point to Jesus? I'm sorry Come on gotta concentrate now. Yeah, like I said on serves back up a little bit gives yourself an extra split second to set and to Hit the B button hit that return Returning is the hardest part of this game. It's it's the hardest part to get down Correctly to get the timing right once you do. I mean, that's that's like three in a row now You kind of get in a zone. All right, this is for the championship for the Rio Open and Got it rats Now we get a chintzy victory screen I am the champion of this particular tournament. Okay, so there you go if you have any questions just leave one in the comments I really like this game. I think it's the best I know I get a lot of I get everybody was talking about smash tennis was up there, too As one of the best For super Nintendo for super Famicom rather that's good, too, but I prefer Super tennis. I just like the timing Involved and all that sort of stuff. I don't know Yeah, so there you go I win And now I am number one in the rankings. You can see the scores of my other matches there So that's pretty much it. Yeah, the whole goal of the game is to finish your season number one in the rankings So again, if you have any questions leave one in the comments. I want to thank you for watching and have a great rest of your day Oh god, not the horrific passwords. No, no
