I wish the animations looked a little smoother.

What really matters is how this game is going to feel. And no video is going to be able to show us that.

I hope there are online tournaments or other online modes. Not just exhibition.

Is Virtua Tennis really coming out around the same time? We have practically no info on that one.



 

Looks good! It's bundeled with WM+ right? I hope so. I would definitely choose this over WSR.



Can someone post a link, because that video isn't working for me, I click play and nothing happens.

There's a rumour that it will be bundled in EU, at least. If the same bundle comes out in NA, I'll probably get both Grand Slam and WSR. One gyroscope-enhanced wiimote just won't be enough.

@ palancas

I'm not sure about EU release dates, but Virtua Tennis is actually coming out a month before Grand Slam in NA (May 19th and June 16th, respectively). Sega's really slacking in their promotion of that title, while EA's doing a great job of selling Grand Slam.

Up until this moment, I didn't think you could hit a grand slam in tennis!

Added link.



 

I did a thread about Virtua Tennis with a link to a complete write-up.

In a nutshell Virtua Tennis is FAR more robust than GST with Complete online functionality to rival the HD systems, better graphics, etc., etc. BUT there's no Wii Motion Plus confirmed yet nor shown to previewers. It's likely they are trying to shoehorn it in but then it might seem second rate to GST.

If Virtua comes without WM+ or with poor WM+ it'll make it a hard decision which to get but I think I'm leaning more towards Grand Slam, especially if it offers even basic online.
