Mario’s last sports outing on the Nintendo Switch was 2018’s Mario Tennis Aces, which our review called ” an extremely fun arcade tennis experience, colorful and dazzling to look at and smartly balanced in its back-and-forth play.” Mario’s sports lineage is of course a long one, with members of the Mushroom Kingdom having played golf, tennis, soccer, and much more in various spinoff titles throughout the decades.
