SEGA Superstars was released a few months ago for the Nintendo Wii and supported Mii characters. It was obviously a less than serious attempt at a proper tennis game so for those of you wanting something more realistic, you’ll be more than happy to discover that 2K is developing Top Spin 3 for the Nintendo Wii.

This game has already been released for other major consoles as well as the PC and has proven very successful thanks to its realism. You’ll meet real stars like Rafael Nadal or Roger Federer, and gameplay is another reason you’ll play Top Spin 3 for hours. There’s no word yet if or how the game will support sensitive controllers, but it’s really hard to imagine a tennis game on the Nintendo Wii without that essential support. Hoping that 2K thinks so too.

So if you are serious about playing a serious tennis simulation, then Top Spin is definitely the game to go for rather than SEGA Superstars. Nintendo Wii Fanboy reports that there might be another reason as well.

If Top Spin offers online play, that in itself might also be a draw for 2K’s tennis over Sega’s game, which lacks that vital feature.

Info on release date hasn’t been announced yet but I guess it’ll be out in Spring.
