A Smash Ahead of Its Time
One of the quirkiest, most underrated tennis games of all time.
With the US Open starting to kick off in New York, it’s an appropriate time to bring up one of the sleeper tennis video games that remains a bit of a hidden gem.
When Super Smash Bros. made its debut in 1999, the revolutionary game mixed a unique approach to the fighting genre with an all-star cast of characters that paid homage to Nintendo history. It was a recipe for success that created a new classic franchise, while shining a light on some under-appreciated characters and games from Nintendo lore.
