“Aces” introduces an energy gauge, which can be filled by engaging in long rallies, hitting powered-up shots and performing difficult tricks. But “Aces” mixes things up a little with some new gameplay mechanics, which work well, and an RPG-like adventure mode, which doesn’t quite live up to its potential. With seven tennis games already under its belt, one might forgive Nintendo for struggling to bring much new to the table outside of some roster tweaks and the allure of the Switch’s portability. Like previous iterations of the series “Aces” sees Mario take to the tennis court to play against some of his best friends, and even a few of his biggest foes. ![]() Mario Tennis Aces, the first original Mario sports game released for the Switch, is the eighth tennis title published by Nintendo and the seventh starring its flagship character. His adventures on the racetrack are well documented in the best-selling “Mario Kart” series, but he has also tried his hand at soccer, golf and even curling. While video game superstar Mario is best known for stomping around the Mushroom Kingdom and rescuing its oft-imperilled princess, he has also garnered a reputation as something of a sportsman.
