Mario Tennis: Mushroom Cup

Mario Tennis: Mushroom Cup is the second in the Mario Tennis series. It features a roster of 24 playable characters, 8 of which are unlocked from the start, and 8 courts, each with different gimmicks. Playing a lot earns exp points, which can upgrade your 3 stats: Speed, Strength, and Stamina. Each character also has slight stat variations to fit any playing style. There is also a new Racket system, where you can design your own racket and tweak the tightness and speed.

==Racket System==
Your racket can have a design drawn or chosen on the stem and round part, and the string color can be customized. The tighter you make it, the harder it hits while sacrificing control, while speed makes it faster while also losing control.
== Special Balls/Rackets ==
Some characters use something irregular as a ball or racket. These are purely aesthetic and can be turned off.
