GameSpot writes: "Certainly there's plenty to like about Grand Slam Tennis--the easy-to-learn controls, the fast pace of play, and exclusive access to Wimbledon. What remains to be seen is if the game will truly appeal to the Wii Sports crowd, while still being able to satisfy tennis junkies yearning for a more in-depth tennis experience on the Wii. Look for more on Grand Slam Tennis in the coming weeks".
Andy Robertson writes "Grand Slam Tennis 2 brings tennis to PlayStation Move but ends up being jack of all controllers and master of none. Great fun for families but for grownups more promise of things to come than a fully fleshed out motion experience. I suspect Grand Slam Tennis on Wii U will be the de facto version."

The biggest test for this approach is how well the more hardcore audience on the PlayStation 3 (and Xbox 360) will take to Grand Slam Tennis 2. It maybe that motion controls are less important here. Perhaps testament to this is the inclusion of some (also quite interesting) Skate style “flick-it” racket controls where the right stick is used to control your swing.
After playing on the Wii, I'll never play a tennis game with sticks again. That is OLD! Has to be motion controlled for moi.
