I'm a middle aged guy who doesn't play video games, so I didn't want to bash this game with a 2 stars rating because it's possible I'm just a video-game rookie. I bought the Wii for my son, and the Virtua tennis for me. The game was too tough for me to play. I played the Sports and the Sports Resorts and quickly became pro on many of the games. But Virtua tennis was too hard for me. For starters, you have to move around the court with the nunchuck joystick (left hand) while swinging with your right hand. The moving around was very difficult for me. It is difficult to judge where the ball will land, and you have to put your player there FAST because the guy on the other side is hitting the ball HARD!! If you make any wrong move at all, it's too late to adjust! I played the VERY EASY setting and didn't understand why they didn't include a mode where the computer moves my character for me, and I just swing, just like the Sports and the Sports Resort. Maybe if I can just get started and like this game, I might keep playing it. But I lost 3 sets on the EASY setting and scored 0 points! In the VERY EASY setting, I managed to score a point. Why don't they put some non-pro players that I can play against just to get more familiar with the controls??? I went through the training and also played the aliens game to get practice for the movement, spent maybe 2-3 hours but just could not get a handle on this game. TOO HARD. Glad I paid only $15 for this game on Black Friday shopping spree. Get more detail about Virtua Tennis 2009.
