While today's Nintendo Direct Mini was a bit low on actual new game announcements, one such announcement stood out, the return of Mario Tennis. Originally seen on Nintendo 64 in the year 2000, Mario Tennis has since graced every Nintendo system except Wii (which had its own brand of tennis) and Switch will be no different as Mario Tennis Aces serves up its particular brand of tennis on the console this spring.
The release will mark the first story mode in the franchise since Mario Tennis Power Tour on Game Boy Advance.
