Rackets & Rivals is a tennis game that was only released in PAL territories.
+ Music has high arching melodies and progressive bass / snare sounds that resemble Batman: The Video Game (1989, NES).
- It's extraordinarily difficult to hit the ball due to the mandatory animation wind up that gives you no time to react.
- Demands that your player is lined up with pixel precision, so angled shots take a backseat to actually making contact.
- Using the Semi-Auto option means your player is always in the right position, but it depreciates and cheapens the gameplay.
- CPU intelligence is very inconsistent, and they'll often start making uncharacteristic mistakes to let you back into the set.
- Matches are frequently interrupted by either player randomly taking issue with the umpiring calls, which halts the action.
