Mario's Tennis[a] is a 1995 sports video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Virtual Boy.

It was released as a launch title for the Virtual Boy, and later was a pack-in game in North America.

[2] Although a two-player function was announced, it was not implemented since the cable required to link two Virtual Boy units was never released.

[4][8] Like all other Virtual Boy games, Mario's Tennis uses a red-and-black color scheme and uses parallax, an optical trick that is used to simulate a 3D effect.

A writer for the magazine commented, "[I]f you're looking for an addictive title to play on your Virtual Boy, this is one of the best choices you can make.

[15] GamesRadar echoed these sentiments, stating "Gameplay was rudimentary, and lacked all the flash and silliness that came to define the Mario Sports series, but as a 3D showpiece it worked fairly well".
