Many people who owned a Dreamcast probably took a chance on a game that was released early on in the system's life which most gamers would generally scoff at. That game was Virtua Tennis. Virtua Tennis was one of those games that just did everything right. It had simple gameplay to pick up, that was hard to put down. It was insanely fun for a single player and even more fun when you stacked on the friends. The game seemingly was released out of nowhere and there were even shortages of the game as it attained an almost underground cult status.

Still probably the best series of tennis games ever made, the Virtua Tennis games haven’t been made for consoles for a very long time. Instead, it seems that the folks at Sega have been satisfied with keeping the Virtua Tennis games to handhelds. The GBA got one and even the N-Gage got one, and both did a damn good job of repackaging the series’ solid gameplay with only 2D graphics to work with.

It's the finer points of gameplay that really make Virtua Tennis outstanding.... Yes, there are only two buttons, and the fact of the matter is that you're usually only going to use one. But this is one of the finest games when it comes to recreating the nuance of the sport, as Virtua Tennis takes a refined sense of strategy and timing to master.
