Ulala packing tricks in Sega Superstars Tennis
Sega just served up more footage of Sega Superstars Tennis, and all the ingredients are in place for one of the most quintessentially Sega experiences in years: cartoon monkeys called Amigo, blue skies, Ulala, and Sonic's horrible voice. Playing tennis to a rousing rendition of Samba de Janeiro, even in videogame form, feels a bit weird, but we strongly suspect we won't care!
Past the break: footage of Ulala playing on home territory. The resolution of the video isn't the best, but we're sure she plays a shot through her legs, a la Martina Navratilova!

Wow..
Ulala seems to have gotten rather good at skating, don't'cha think!?

LOL @ Sonic: "I got it!"

I can't get over the bad movement animations of all the characters. You look backwards, at least a little bit, when you run backwards. It might be nit picking, but that kills the game for me.

What might possibly kill it for me is the same thing that killed Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games: the lack of lip-synching. I honestly think I would've enjoyed that game if the character's mouths moved when they talked. It's a minute detail, but if this game lacks it, it's going to lack the necessary personality that I seem to always find in Mario sports games.

It's not Ulala, it's Gum from Jet Grind Radio/Jet Set Radio Future. Which of course explains why she's so good at skating. =P

Yep, the game menu even points that out.
It's a SC5 stage, but the neither player is from said game.

I found it an odd oversight, aside from the menu evidence. Ulala's crazy pink hair is a dead giveaway
Man, I wish that rumor about Space Channel 5 coming back was true...

The announcer sounds like John Lovitz.
