A mascot filled tennis game isn’t something that immediately fills me with excitement. But seeing more and more Sega characters from some of my all time favorites is certainly making me pay attention to Sega Superstar Tennis. Beat from Jet Set Radio is pictured above. He will face other “Superstars” like NiGHTS (NiGHTS), AiAi (Super Monkey Ball), Ulala (Space Channel 5), Amigo (Samba de Amigo), Eggman and of course Sonic. What doesn’t Sonic do these days? That’s shy of half the 15+ roster Sega is planning. What other original characters can they include? How about Ryu Hazuiki Ryo Hazuki, G from House of the Dead, Mieu and Alex Kidd? Hmm… even though Alex Kidd was once Sega’s darling he’s a dark horse, Vyse from Skies of Arcadia has a better chance than him.
