Virtua Tennis Exists for Wii?

jesusraz | May 31, 2008 | News | Wii

Ever since the tennis side of Wii Sports was revealed people were clamouring for a more in-depth tennis simulation on Nintendo's Wii console, with Virtua Tennis seemingly being a prime candidate for the system. However, nothing was forthcoming. Yet now it seems Virtua Tennis 3 WAS being made for Wii, according to an interview with SUMO Digital in the latest issue of the UK's Official Nintendo Magazine.

"April 2007: We do some prototyping on a potential Wii version of Virtua Tennis 3 and whilst we're doing that we make all the characters have big heads. SEGA pay us a visit and on seeing this suggest we pop in Sonic instead of a big-headed Federer. As such, potential character defamation cases are avoided and the seeds of SEGA Superstar Tennis are born."
