Hey. I have the game. Every arcade tennis game I have ever played including prior Mario Tennis games have had this feature. I have also had the ability to set game length/time in football, soccer, hockey, baseball, and racing games that are both arcade and sim oriented. Why should I have any reason to expect this one shouldn't?
This is not the consumers fault in any way. This is a basic, reasonable expectation for pretty much any sports game to have, regardless of whether it's slanted towards arcade or slim. Other Mario Tennis games have had this feature. It is absolutely absurd to think this is an unreasonable expectation.

I never said that was unreasonable expectation, infact I said the lack of options was a mistake that needs fixing in my very first post on this thread. However it is still just that, an expectation, not fact or truth. That one doesn't get confirmation of their expectations being met before buying is only the consumers fault. |
Lets say you buy a new car. You're driving around in it, and it starts raining. You turn on your wipers, and they start whizzing back and forth across the windshield at full speed. You go to adjust the speed only to discover there is no adjustment to be seen. You think your car might have had the wrong wiper stock installed, or it must be in some other location you can't seem to find, so you look in the owners manual. No mention of the wiper's intermittent settings or where it's located. So you google your car,'s horn only to discover there actually are no intermittent wipers installed. See the manufacturer thought it would decide for its drivers how fast their wipers should be moving at all times, so it quietly removed the ability to change the wiper's speed from the car's design. This leaves you confused! Intermittent wipers were standard equipment in every other car you bought from this manufacturer. Every other car in this car's category has intermittent wipers. There was nothing in the pamphlets, car reviews, or websites that mentioned that these new cars do not have intermittent wipers. You just thought it was a given. A standard feature. But, you didn't ask the salesman if it had a intermittent wipers, so the manufacturer tells you to go kick rocks. It's your fault for not asking the right questions.
Yeah, that makes sense.
It's reasonable to expect a tennis game to just have the ability to adjust game and set lengths. Quit blaming the consumer for Nintendo's poor choice not to live up to reasonable expectations.
