Top Spin 2 DS looks nice

Not the biggest DS fan, but it is not bad, not bad at all.

That's... that's not bad! I was expecting a cheap low-grade 2D cash-in. (note: 2D is awesome, but you know what I mean)
 
If it's got a smooth framerate then it's the best-looking 3D on the DS... Well, sports game at least.
 
looks decent, may give it a try, but i've yet to play a tennis game better than final match on the pc engine, which had 8/16 bit graphics.

What about American Sk8land? That game looks great.

Will buy if Wifi
 
Wow, that looks awesome for the DS :). Looks like the dual screen won't get much use, but at least all the HUD clutter isn't in the way of gameplay. As for touch screen support, i'm sure they could come up with some fun training/mini games that utilize it.
 
Looks great!

Tennis on portables appeals to me so much more than consoles because in multiplayer you don't have to put up with the crappy 'behind the net' view. At least in Virtua Tennis on PSP (which i haven't played.. yet ). So i hope this has that feature!
 
I've never played a Top Shot Tennis game, but is the camera constantly closeer to the player? Does it have a more "classic" view, like Virtua Tennis:

Any "wacky" mnigames like VT too? It looks pretty good so far [though I'd definitely go for a more rich colour palette setting, looks a bit dull], any details on 4 player? Any chance of single cart play?
 
woa, that actually looks pretty darn good.

No WFC logo on the boxart though :(

no online, no buy
 
Holy shit.

Looks better than the Xbox 360 version!!!!















Ok fine, Im kidding, but it still looks really good for the DS. Almost up to Virtua Tennis (DC) level. +1 sale.
 
Take 2 (2K Games) -- TBA

That was listed under the future WiFi release list (which is at Ninty's online press room or wikipedia, if memory serves...) So, possibly, this could be that title (out of a group of titles, who knows really?) Anyway, I'd recommend being skeptical, but open to the possibility that it could happen, either now or down the line.

Lay off the crack bud. It's awesome for DS, but not even the PSP version of VT is quite as good as DC VT.
