Super Tennis is a 1991 tennis video game for the Super NES.

The game itself features three different modes, Singles mode, in which you can compete against a human or chosen computer opponent, doubles mode, in which you and a human team-mate can face the cpu, or you can each pair with a CPU opponent, or even one player can pair with a CPU opponent to face two other computer opponents. Finally, Circuit mode, featuring a wide range of tours you battle through each tournament to earn yourself ranking points and aim to finish number one in the rankings. There are four minor tournaments and four major tournaments, each taking place on a different surface, Hard, Lawn or Clay.

A big advantage to the games gameplay is the differences in each court, and it is possible, just like a real human player that one can become accustomed to the bounce and speed of one type of court, but struggle on another. This enables different tactics to be used to defeat an opponent, to making your game more solid on your weaker surfaces.

Another advantage are the characters to choose from. There are 20 characters to choose, 10 male and 10 female, each with different characteristics and styles of play.
