Old..
It seems that the Nintendo Wii is 7 years too late with their motion sensing controller for a tennis game. Someone has beat them to the punch..the Sega Dreamcast. Thats right! No, there was no special controller that was never released or a modified controller. Its actually the Sega Dreamcast fishing rod. Yes, the fishing rod! The fishing rod works well with Virtua Tennis and acts as a tennis racket. Similar to that of the Wiimote and Wii Sports. It will take a bit to get use to but it works just like the Wiimote. Unlike Wii Sports where the characters are automatically controlled, you actually have to controller the players in Virtua Tennis with the analog stick and at the same time, swing the racket...errr fishing rod.
Below is a video of it in action.

awesome, i need to try that that looks more fun then wii sports tennis
as if ive still got one of those things -sega bass fishing- the shame !!
wow, 7 years earlier and still way better.
Having to smash then use the joystick to move the player had some challenge and way cooler than wii-tennis. Not wireless .. not too bad.
