This is a rather slick trailer. Nintendo snagged Rafael Nadal, the 16-time Grand Slam singles title winner and sure-fire Hall-of-Famer, to face Mario in a spot for Mario Tennis Aces, arriving June 22 on Nintendo Switch.
But Rafa is playing on hardcourt, not clay, where he has been so dominant throughout his career (yesterday he dispatched Diego Schwartzman in four sets to reach the semifinals of the French Open). In a sequence showcasing all of the super moves available to the player — the zone shot, the trick shot, the special shot — Nadal prevails thanks to a feature that I didn’t see in the demo: the ability to challenge a ruling.
