'''Mario's Tennis''' is a sports game for the [[Virtual Boy]]. It is notable as being the first primarily ''[[Portal: Mario Brothers|Mario]]''-themed sports game and for being one of Virtual Boy's launch titles that was packaged with the system.

=Gameplay=

This game implements [[Mario]] and seven other playable characters in a tennis environment, with the 3D effects helping to flesh out the tennis court. Players can perform Single or Doubles matches in Regular or Tournament modes with three difficulties. It has single player and two-player capability, although it was impossible to actually access two-player mode due to the cancellation of the Virtual Boy link cable.

=Legacy=

==Sequels==

The next ''Mario''-themed tennis game was ''[[Mario Tennis]]'' for the Nintendo 64, although ''[[Mario Golf]]'' would be the next ''Mario'' sports title.
