With the Wii, Nintendo has scored a tremendous, undeniable hit; it’s the first videogame console that could arguably be said to appeal to the masses (i.e., not just people who have traditionally been labeled “gamers”). You know this, I know this, and EA Sports knows this — so they’re aggressively marketing their upcoming tennis game,EA Sports Grand Slam Tennis(exclusive to the Wii until this fall), toeverybody.
As I’ve said before, the more I see ofGrand Slam Tennis, the more I wish I had a Wii to play it on. It really looks like it’s going to provide an accurate simulation of the sport coupled with a control mechanism that will make you feel like you’re actually on a real tennis court, holding a racket. If you’re so inclined, you’re able to check out some new screenshots and player renders in the gallery below; we’ve also got other gameplay videoshereandhere, and more imageshere.

By the way, Nancy, it looks like you and young Mitchell are all alone in this world — and I’m sorry to see that. If you need a man in your life, just give me a call, you know? I look forward to it.
