Gain More Experience
Sent in by Jeff

Before I even begin, I have found out that when you play EXHIBITION 
matches using your character from the MARIO TOUR mode, and when 
you win matches, you still gain experience for that match. Try to 
play as many as you can. 

I have found out a trick to gain more experience points from tennis 
matches. First off, equip yourself with the Iron Shoes and Iron Racket 
if you can. Now when you play a match, score against your opponent by 
performing as many lob shots, drop shots, smash aces, service aces, 
and return aces as you can. It does not matter how many you have in 
each category, as long as you have a lot of one of them. When the match 
ends, you should have a lot of experience points. (For some easy 
experience, play the EXHIBITION mode and face Joy while performing 
this trick. She's EXTREMELY easy to beat as long as you're at a decent level.) 


Prevent yourself from losing games

Just like in Mario Golf, during the middle of a match, and if you're 
losing, press START to bring up the menu, then go to QUIT and SAVE 
your game. All of the stats (sets won, games won, lob shots, smash 
aces, service aces, return aces, drop shots, etc.) will be saved. The 
points will be reset back to 0-0 though. Use this trick to prevent 
yourself from even losing ONE game! (Used with my Gain More 
Experience trick, you can build up a LOT of lob shots, drop shots, 
service aces, return aces, and smash aces to get a LOT of experience!)


Castle Court
Play Luigi's Shooting Star mini-game and win both levels. When you get to
the third level, beat the high score of 60 to unlock the Castle Court in
linked play and exhibition modes.


Star Court
Play Mario's Boo Blast mini-game, complete levels 1 and 2, and beat the high
score to unlock the Star Court.


Play as Students
Defeat the students you face in the Junior, Senior, Varsity, and Traveling
Leagues to unlock them at the character selection screen.


Play as Mario
Successfully complete the game in Singles.


Tropics Court
Play Baby Mario's Target Shot mini-game and win both levels. When you get to
the third level, beat the high score of 60 to unlock the Tropics Court in
linked play and exhibition modes.


Jungle Court
Play Donkey Kong's Banana Bunch mini-game and win both levels. When you get
to the third level, beat the high score of 60 to unlock the Jungle Court in
linked play and exhibition modes.


More mini-games
Unlock the Nintendo 64 characters, then check the mini-game screen. More
entries should be available. To unlock even more mini-games, win the Junior,
Senior, Varsity, and Traveling Leagues in Singles and Doubles.


Game reset
If you lose a game in RPG mode, pause the game immediately before the score
appears. Save the game, quit, then resume the game you were just playing.
The game (not match or set) will be reset.


Play as Peach
Successfully complete the game in Doubles.


Nintendo 64 characters
Use the Transfer Pak with the Nintendo 64 version of Mario Tennis. Select
"Transfer" at the main menu, then select "Game Pak Check". After it checks,
an icon that says "Transfer N64 Characters" will appear. This will allow you
to play as Bowser, Waluigi, Wario, and Yoshi.


Silver and Gold Rackets
Make sure you have the Iron Racket equipped, then go to the training courts.
Go up to the lake and follow it until you see a boy practicing his swing.
Tell him you do not like it and you will show him your swing. He will laugh,
and you will get angry. Next, get ready to swing. In ten seconds, press A as
many times as possible. If you press it 100 times, you will get the Silver
Racket. If you swing it 150 times you will get the Gold Racket. Note: Try
wrapping your hand in your shirt and rub it over A until it ends. You should
be able to get either racket this way.
