                                        Sport on the Court

We practise at the Royal Tennis Academy,
It’s usually the best place to be,
Together we’re known as Max and Tina,
As we get strong, our enemies get meaner,
Intense matches were at the tennis court,
Sometimes, it can be a tough sport,
If we try harder, we’ll be at the top of any class,
And beat adversaries such as Sass,
Captain of the school is Elroy,
He’s an ace player and obviously a boy,
Every student wants to be the best,
At moments like this, there’s no time to rest,
Winning a trophy was our ambition,
It wasn’t easy being prepared for the Island Open competition,
But in the end, it was worth it,
The journey was long and difficult, we admit,
Power Shots, skill, luck and endurance were the key to victory,
Stadiums were always awesome to see,
The venues were far away from home,
One of the amazing places we’ve played at is Peach Dome,
In matches, it’s now or never,
Memories of emerging victorious will last forever,
Everybody is giving their all,
Keeping their eyes on the ball,
We’ve achieved our dream,
Because we’re a champion team,
Tennis can be a competitive game,
Daily phrase is no pain, no gain.

I've been playing Mario Power Tennis on my Game Boy Advance like crazy but not literally so this is my attempt at a poem about Max and Tina's (in the :flagus:'s case, Clay and Ace from Mario Tennis: Power Tour) quest of being champions at the Island Open tournaments and finally meeting the masked players who were in fact, Mario and friends. This is written in their point of view and unlike the previous poems, this isn't inspired from a song but from a game instead. If you're a fan of Mario Power Tennis, then you may love reading this! ;)

Summary: Mario Power Tennis (GBA) poem written in Max and Tina's point of view about their quest to super stardom & success. It isn't easy shooting for the stars when there are foes in the way and they reflect on what they've been through as a champion team.

Thanks! ;) I bet you haven't played the game, right? Try finding it in your nearest shops to see if they sell it or search for the game online. In your country, it's called “Mario Tennis: Power Tour” whilst in my country it's known as “Mario Power Tennis”. It has a great role playing adventure and a witty script as in some parts are hilarious. :XD:

If Mario can do outer space with Super Mario Galaxy, so can Girls Aloud with their single, "Untouchable"! :w00t:

Thanks you. I'll try to pick it up at a store someday. It sounds like a fun game =).

It sure is but I'm not sure if you'll be able to find it 'cause it came out a few years ago. I just can't remember when it was released. You like tennis and RPG, don't you?

Yeah, it's been out for quite a while now, but I'm sure I can find it at Gamestop or somewhere. And yeah, tennis and RPG games are awesome!

Then that means you're gonna love the game I'm talking about, Mario Tennis: Power Tour or in my case, Mario Power Tennis, for the Game Boy Advance. I think this game is the sequel to Mario Tennis for the Game Boy Colour, which I've missed out on. :(

Thanks! ;) If you don't understand the poem, you need to play Mario Power Tennis (known in the :flaguk: and :flageu:) or in your case, Mario Tennis: Power Tour for the Game Boy Advance. I think it's the sequel to Mario Tennis for the Game Boy Colour.
