Bowser in the meantime, throws Bob-ombs at them. However, Mario and Luigi deflect the incoming Bob-ombs back at them with their tennis rackets. Other characters, such as Diddy Kong and Koopa Troopa, are briefly seen helping the Mario Bros. As a last resort, Bowser launches a from his blimp at them, and Mario knocks it back with his racket, which fires back and hits Wario's Bob-omb launcher. Waluigi is about to retrieve the launcher, but Wario falls and crushes him. The launcher, flipped from the explosion, accidentally fires a Bob-omb at Bowser's blimp, destroying it and revealing Bowser's stock of Bob-ombs below his blimp, shocking Peach, Mario, and Luigi. Bowser's blimp starts to descend out of control and falls toward Wario and Waluigi. Wario and Waluigi attempt to escape, but Bowser crashes to them with the Bob-ombs onboard, causing them to blow up on impact creating a large explosion. Afterwards, the trio falls unconscious after the blast, and their plan to attack Mario and his friends has completely failed, despite the damage they have done to the stadium.

Slices are slower with a lower trajectory than topspin shots and the ball's trail is colored blue when a slice shot has been taken. It can fly over the opponents' heads. It is performed to deter players who like to go far away from the net. When the ball is lobbed, a smash point appears and the player can perform a smash shot instead of a flat shot. Flat shots' trails are colored green while smash shots' trails are colored purple. The power shot depends on the character. The players also must be in a certain distance or they will perform a defensive power shot instead. Note that any offensive power shots that occur before this still has an effect on the player who will use the power shot. This power shot also depends on the characters, but not as much as offensive power shots.

To do so, the player must hit an with the ball and receive a random item, very much like in the series, except that the item received isn't dependent if the player is losing or not. If the player gets hit by one, they will stumble and lose time, possibly going as far as help the opponent gain a point. The effect is similar to that of a green shell if contact has been initiated. It also grows the player back into normal size quicker if they had been shrunk by Lightning. If it hits the ground, the banana remains there. Slipping on a banana peel also has the same effect as shells. It also grows the player back to normal size quicker, if the player was shrunk by Lightning. The opponent's speed, stature, and power will also decrease. The content and number of the item boxes depends on the court being played on. The player earns the points in the rings by winning the point in the game, which depends on how many rings the player has shot. The losing player will give half of their points to the winning player in charge amount. The amount of ring points needed to win the game ranges from 100, 200, and 500. Tournament Mario pits against opponents in the. The player pits against simultaneous matches against computer opponents to win the trophy in a cup. The higher the cup level, the harder the computers will get. Once a character has completed Star Cup, the character receives a star ranking, strengthening hitting the ball. This rank also allows the character to participate in the Star Tournament, where the opponents also have the star ranking and are generally more difficult. The player can also participate in a Gimmick Tournament, which, as the name implies, enables the player to participate in Gimmick matches in courts against the computer. Although a Doubles Tournament is available, only one player can participate, forcing the player to be paired with an AI-controlled partner of their choice. Additionally, completing the World Open in Doubles does not grant the character a star ranking, so players must complete the Singles tournaments first to participate in Doubles Star Tournament. World Open These tournaments are held in the Peach Dome court. However, as the tournament suggests, CPU opponents are all star characters. Players have the option to play special games as an alternative to going in tournament or exhibition mode.

All courts have specific special games that are unique from one another. In order to progress and achieve harder levels, the player must complete the designs within the time limit. Designs include Mario, Luigi, Diddy Kong, Bowser and Bowser Jr. The game ends when a Klaptrap pops a balloon. Water balls place angry Chain Chomps back into their normal positions, and put normal Chain Chomps to sleep. The player can wake the Chain Chomp up by smacking a Bob-omb into it. Players can also tamper with other players' progress. However, the player also must avoid rebounding their ball into the gray zone that changes constantly throughout the game. Messing up ends the game. Mecha Bowser can attack the player by breathing fire and shooting. The game ends when either the player or Mecha Bowser is defeated. They have to earn a certain amount of points before the time runs out in order to proceed to more difficult levels. The player gets more points if they hit the ghost that is just about to come out of the painting. They can do this by hitting balls to the other side of the court, while hitting the FLUDD icons, in order to spray goop away from the site. They can only move left and right, but they can hit tennis balls to hit the POW block for more coins or the destruction of the fireballs. The player with the most coins wins the game. Other modes The Exhibition records. Players can save a game during the middle of a match or before a tournament is started. However, any midgame points gained will reset to 0-0.

For the Wii version of Mario Power Tennis via the lineup , the game makes use of the Wii's motion controls instead of the Nintendo GameCube controller which this specified version cannot be played using the latter.

In the intro of the game where and are checking out the tournament board, the player can see and on the left. It is unknown if they were intended to be playable or if it is a simple cameo. Unused models found within the game's files include a with its filename implying that it was meant to be the linesman and 3D sprites for a , a , and a. Presumably, the latter two models were to be used for the as either spectators or obstacles. In the final game, they use their sprites from the NES version of Mario Bros. During production, the game was called Mario Tennis. It features and on the sidelines and the gimmick court feaures a and a. The theme can be heard in. Also, serve as hazards and stand along the outer edge of the field. Also, some of Mario and Luigi's voice samples, most notably their serves, are reused. However, it goes by its Japanese version name, Thunder Cup, as part of the Gimmick Masters tournament. It features ghosts who slow players down in the Gimmick Court. Luigi's Defensive Power Shot makes him use his , which originated from this game. Also, the icons from the Main Menu are. Several voice clips are reused as well. The 3-second countdown sound effect is used when a round of is about to begin. Various character artwork is reused for tennis. This is the only Mario game so far that has blooper-reels in the credits. If the player wins the Star Cup or Thunder Cup, the player will see a blooper reel of the first half of the Opening Movie. Although Luigi complains about the injury on his nose, he is shown with a black eye. He then apologizes to the cameraman. He runs off, frightened, slamming against the cameraman, as Wario and Waluigi, offscreen, laugh. If the player wins the Planet Cup, a second set of bloopers will continue where the last set left off. Suddenly, his cell phone rings and he picks it up with his left hand, without dropping the barbell in his right hand. It is seen that he was just pretending his effort, as he talks nonchalantly at the phone. Waluigi, displeased, calls the cut by placing his hand on the camera lens. I told you not to call me! I'm making a movie... Waluigi then calls for the Prop Guy. Mario shrugs at the camera, laughing. Snapshot gallery Clicking the image goes to page with a gif of the blooper. Reason: The descriptions need major editing When a character wins a tournament, his or her celebration will be shown. In each one, an event occurs. Peach, also pleased, holds Mario in place and crouches to kiss Mario's cheek. Mario, in love, puts down the trophy and then jumps to do a cheer. He pats him on the back but appears to intentionally step on Luigi's foot out of jealousy. She blows a kiss to the Mario brothers, making them float. Then, Wario and Waluigi try to steal the trophy, but Wario slips on a tennis ball, knocking over the rack the trophy sat on and flinging the trophy into the air. Peach catches the trophy. He is saddened by having nothing to eat at the moment, until Luigi arrives on stage with the trophy. He sees the object as a big and juicy pineapple. Yoshi tries to eat, but ends up swallowing Luigi. He is surprised by his disappearance. He asks for a kiss on the cheek and closes his eyes. Peach then gets a red Birdo to kiss him. When Bowser sees it, he runs away. Suddenly they hear a chuckle, which happens to be him snatching the trophy and making poses afterward. She comes in, skating at high speed, making Luigi spin. She skates into him, making him throw the trophy up. In slow motion, Daisy catches the trophy. Toad arrives with the trophy and DK grabs it, unaware that Toad is still hanging on to it. DK shakes the object several times until Toad falls off. Diddy arrives, jumping and running around Luigi, and then picks up the trophy with his tail. Diddy throws his prize up, jumps on the bongos, and catches the trophy. Diddy then jumps on DK's shoulder and they both strike a pose. He lands on it, and when he gets up, he is shocked to see it flattened, so he picks it up and sadly shows it off. Wario pushes Waluigi, making him fall, losing his grip on the trophy. As he tries to get up, the trophy hits him on the head. Mario and Luigi are frightened, until they saw that Boo was invisible when he got it. Several other Boos appear, two of which carry Mario and Luigi. Koopa Troopa comes in and slips on the peel. Mario and Luigi try to dodge, but Koopa Troopa hits the face of Luigi, who throws the trophy. Koopa Troopa catches it. Wario pulls back the rod, but Toad cuts the string with a large pair of scissors. That causes Wario and Waluigi to fall, making Paratroopa get the prize. Shy Guy arrives, walking happily. After climbing the steps, he falls and drops his mask. Luigi gets very scared seeing his true face, but Shy Guy quickly puts his mask back and takes the trophy. This causes Fly Guy to spin wildly out of control, knocking down Wario and Waluigi, and launching the trophy into the air. Fly Guy catches the trophy and celebrates with Peach. Luigi and Diddy Kong, nervous, watch Wiggler get angry, but it calms when it sees its trophy. Diddy Kong, however, loses his footing, bumps into Luigi, and they both land on Wiggler and knock the trophy away. The Wiggler gets angry and then chases Diddy Kong and Luigi. Petey then begins to jump in place excitedly, shaking the platform. After he takes the trophy, Petey jumps into the air. Mario, Peach, Koopa Troopa, Shy Guy and the Toad brace for impact, but when nothing happens, they look up and see Petey flying, whilst clutching the trophy in his mouth. Notice how Mario is not getting pushed back, as seen in the Offensive Power Shot Immunity glitch. Mario or Luigi rebounding an with their Offensive Power Shot may not push them back or reverse their controls. However, Mario or Luigi still slow down from Offensive Power Shots such as Petey Piranha's. Incorrect Wario Audio Occasionally, when a player-controlled Wario uses his Offensive Power Shot, Wario will begin saying his Defensive Power Shot Audio instead of his Offensive Power Shot Audio. The Incorrect Wario Audio glitch has only been found on the Wii Version. Inappropriate Match Animations If a player or team earns the required amount of rings during a ring match before the opponent or the opponent's team does, but misses the ball or hits it out, it triggers their losing animation as though the player or team lost the match, while the opponent player acts as if the match is won. In the results screen, however, the animation and results are correct, meaning the Inappropriate Match Animations glitch does not prevent a recorded win. Banana glitch This glitch requires good timing. If done correctly, the banana will still be seen on the ball with the server. However, it behaves normally. In all appearances after this game, he is seen wearing his current short sleeved shirt.
