Wii Sports Tennis screen - Image 1If you've been itching for some tennis action in the comforts of your living room, then look no further because Top Spin Tennis is coming to the Nintendo Wii. Senior Producer Jean-Yves Patay from game developer PAM promised that the game will have more than Wii Sports' tennis had to offer.

"There'll be no big heads and no players without legs," he told CVG. Aside from that, Top Spin Tennis will also focus on the actual tennis experience than being a tech demo of the Wii's motion sensing capabilities.

Patay stressed out that they're offering "a real tennis game." Unlike his six year old son who can be satisfied with waving a Wiimote around to see his avatar on screen playing tennis, Patay believes that "hardcore" gamers want precise movements. "In Top Spin, you will have to move your character and do different swings," he continued.
