The show returns with its participants in a rush to quickly discuss the death of Michael Jackson; E3's reboots of Monkey Island, Metroid, and Castlevania; and the 25th anniversary of Tetris. This episode is so brief that one might call it... the very soul of wit.

Man, why couldn't this exist back when I was in high school?! I would have flunked, but it would be fun!

A portion of a ThatGamingSite review...

Poor graphics and the lack of a soundtrack don't hold back one of the best games of tennis you'll get on Wii and probably any system around at the moment.

I remember seeing this sucker back on store shelves in the day, but something about it kept me away from turning its pages. Looks like I made a wise decision!
