Monkey Tennis (Banana Mania)

Monkey Tennis is a Party Game in Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania.
==Gameplay==
The monkeys play a game of tennis, on one of 3 courts. Monkeys have to return balls in such a way that their opponent/opponents either fail to return the ball, or hit the ball out. Points are scored in the order 15, 30, 40, 50, where scoring 50 points wins the game. A certain number of game wins nets a set, and a certain number of sets wins the match. 
In addition to a standard return, Monkeys can perform 4 basic types of shots, a top spin shot, a slice, a lob and a smash. In order to perform a top spin, slice or lob shot, the monkey must make their way to the path of the ball and prepare their shot before the ball reaches them, as inputting a swing right as the ball arrives always results in a standard return. A red circle appears when a monkey hits the ball, showing where it will bounce, to accommodate this. A smash is performed when the opponent hits a high ball, by standing on the "Smash Mark" and swinging when the ball is overhead. The player can influence where their shot will go by inputting a direction when they input a swing. For example, inputting left will make the shot go to the left, and inputting up will make the ball go to the back of the court. To beat CPUs, the player will need to mix up where they send their returning shots to, to keep the CPU moving. A fast serve can be performed by inputting to swing when the ball is at the peak of the toss.
There are 3 available modes. In Singles, there is one monkey on each side, and the inner tramlines determine the side boundaries of the court. In Doubles, there are 2 monkeys on each side, one in front and one at the back, and the outer tramlines determine the side boundaries of the court. In Tournament mode, a single player plays 4 singles matches in a row against a CPU, needing to best all 4 in a row to win.
