The latest video for Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash shows off the game’s Mega Ball Rally mode. Check it out below.

Update (10/7): Bumped to the top. The dream of more characters might be dead. Nintendo has updated the website, and it now says three characters instead of five.


Original (10/6): Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash’s full site has gone live. Access it here.

On the page, Nintendo mentions that the game “features five new characters alongside returning fan favorites.” Based on what we’ve previously seen, we know of three entirely new roster additions. That should mean there are two others we don’t know about currently.

Finally, we’ve rounded up the various clips from Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash’s site. Find five minutes of footage below (warning: shows some of the secret characters, though I suppose they really aren’t at this point).

The latest look at Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash is an online match featuring amiibo. Check it out below.

Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon isn’t the only new game that can be pre-loaded on the North American eShop. On Wii U, it’s now possible to pre-load Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash.

Nintendo will be bringing out its latest sports title on November 20. It comes with the final price point of $49.99.

Nintendo has once again unleashed a few more screenshots from Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash. The images show off another one of the secret, unlockable characters. Head past the break for the full gallery.

Nearly ten more minutes of footage from Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash has appeared online. Check out the latest video below.

A few Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash gameplay videos are now available for viewing. You can watch a number of matches below.

Some Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash players may find that the game is a bit limited in terms of content. It doesn’t sound like there’s much there in the way of modes, which also extends to online play.

This is a bit bizarre, but Ultra Smash lacks support for lobbies or communities. Essentially, that will take it tough for players to connect with friends online. The only modes available for Internet play include Single and Doubles.

Both of these feature Relaxed and Serious options. For the latter, it’s possible to play ranked battles and grow your standing among other players worldwide. Doubles lets players team up with another person locally or with an amiibo. It’s also worth mentioning that you can’t control the length of the match unlike local multiplayer. However, players can choose for a tiebreaker or a two-game, one-set match.
