D3 Publisher transforms court side athletics into an exceptionally fast-paced, anime-infused sports spectacle with Simple 2000 Series Ultimate Vol. 1: Love★Smash! Super Tennis Players. Moving completely away from rigid, hyper-realistic sports simulations, the gameplay loops center around a hyper-energetic, pick-up-and-play tournament engine where timing and spatial placement rule the court. Players choose from a highly eccentric, colorful roster of stylized international characters, each packing unique movement agility parameters, customizable outfits, and devastating, gravity-defying signature trick shots that send balls rocketing past opponent coverage lanes.

Offering remarkably smooth mechanical execution physics and vibrant character portraits, this definitive budget-line pioneer delivers a wonderfully charming, high-velocity sports arena experience.
