Wow, the difference between these screenshots and the Madden one below is just staggering.

at least grand slam tennis is a new game. For someone whose been playing madden for years upon years, that screen shot of Roethlisberger looks like the same damn game it has been for 3 years now.

If this tennis game is fun, i'll buy it. But Madden's got an uphill road to climb with me.

Even Wii games shouldn't look this bad...but I gather they are working more on the motionplus controls then the graphics.

I love nice graphics too, but this game could look like Wii Sports Tennis and I wouldn't care. If the addition of motion plus actually makes this game play as amazingly as everyone is saying, count me in!

Except that the Wii Sports graphics are deliberately stylized, this just looks like shit.

Would you rather cartoony shit, or attempted realism shit?

Difference of opinion, i guess. I think this makes it more "realistic" than "realism," since if they had gone for a more realist art style, it would have wound up looking worse. Better for poly counts, perhaps, but worse in terms of color and lighting, etc. With this in play, it just looks so much smoother.

I still can't believe it's taken this long to get another tennis game on this system.

There have been others, just none of particular note.

It certainly muddies the question of Wii Sports Resort's release date to no end. It also opens up the possibility of this game's sales to go off into the stratosphere.

I hope they do this in the states, too. It would allow me to officially not care about Wii Sports Resort, which I would just as soon not own.

Assuming Grand Slam Tennis plays like it's been advertised, I'd play it in a heartbeat over Top Spin w/ dual analog control.

If I want to gawk at hot women playing tennis in a realistic environment, I'll watch the **** tennis channel.

There is no way Nintendo will pass up first dibs on software sales from a MotionPlus bundle. I'm gonna guess that (if this bundle is actually true) Wii Sports Resort is to be released before this, not even simultaneously.

i think this is good idea, maybe Nintendo should think about letting third parties bundle some of their peripheral with some of the hardcore games so that more people will buy them.. for instance if a really good game like boom blox or no more heroes (and other "hardcore" games)were bundled with a discounted wii remote or other interesting peripheral at less the cost of buying it seperate it would heighten hardcore game sales and in turn heighten interest in developers developing these games for the system

Amazon.de does not list the combo anymore, just the game.
More speculation as to whether Wii Sports Resort will be released in june welcome...
