Virtua Tennis 2009 is the first 3rd party title for Wii to feature Wii MotionPlus support.<\/p>\n
Wednesday 15th April 2009 \u2013 SEGA Europe Ltd. today announced that Virtua Tennis\u2122 2009 will support the new Wii MotionPlus\u2122 feature. This means that for the first time Nintendo Wii\u2122 owners will be able to experience the thrill of playing with the Wii Remote\u2122 as you would with a real-tennis racket.<\/p>\n
The Wii MotionPlus feature allows players greater control than ever before, with the Wii responding more accurately to the swings and shots of each individual player. With Wii MotionPlus and Virtua Tennis 2009 the shots you play in your living room are mimicked by your on screen character, so that satisfying cross court winner, or drop shot followed by the roar of the crowd feels so much more rewarding. As well as direction, Wii MotionPlus will allow a slice to be played with a simple twist of the wrist, while an upward motion allows players to lob the ball over your opponents head.<\/p>\n
Virtua Tennis 2009 is due for release on the Xbox 360\u00ae video game and entertainment system, the PlayStation\u00ae3 computer entertainment system, the Nintendo Wii system and the PC in May 2009.\u00a0 Further information relating to the content of the game will be available over the coming months from the official website of the game \u2013 www.virtuatennis2009.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n For all press assets on Virtua Tennis 2009 and other SEGA games, please visit www.sega-press.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Virtua Tennis 2009 is the first 3rd party title for Wii to feature Wii MotionPlus support.
