Funny considering I said the same thing about Apple fanatics (that Apple could crap in a box and sell it to them).  I suppose the million or so people didn't read about the game online or in a magazine to realize the controls were bad (I am just going to assume they are since a few here have stated).  I am just curious how they messed up the motion controls for NPC Mario Power Tennis considering the game was already made and they only had to focus on the controls.
