©NCSX▪ Step into the shoes of a girl who has the hots for the Prince of Tennis boys. Interaction provides a chance to get to know the guys better and if you're alluring enough, maybe one of the tennis-crazed teens will take two seconds to compliment you on your Sakura Kasugano outfit instead of running off to practice. To hone your game plan, it's possible to practice your own tennis skills with mini-games where you slap a ball against a wall before facing one of the boys. The voice actors from the animation provide full conversational speech in the game to complement the written dialogue. The alternate SKU# for this product is VW300-J1. View the back cover and screenshots on the main NCSX site. NCS Game Notes
* The intro to the game shows the guys of POT in groups of three and then in respective high school teams before the title screen appears. * At the outset of the game, players choose an outfit that is associated with a group of tennis players. The Sakura Kusagano regulation issue outfit is associated with the main cast of POT boys from Seigaku high school. They will serve as the immediate circle that you'll interact with. * The game starts with the braying of an insect in the background as the camera descends from the clouds to the town. The date is August 20 and the heroine goes to school and is greeted by Tezuka Kunimitsu, the guy with glasses and the feathery brown hair. Dialogue at the bottom of the screen is accompanied by spoken words from each character. The other boys such as Kawamura Takashi, Ryoma Echizan, Ooishi Shuuichirou, Inui Sadaharu, and others all introduce themselves one by one. * To view everyone's dialogue in script form at any time, press the TRIANGLE button and the entire text of the dialogue up to that point will be shown. Scroll through it to see what each boy said. * To toggle to automatic progression so you don't have to continually press the button to move the interaction sequences along, hit the L2 trigger. To toggle back to user-input progression, hit the R2 trigger. * The game moves along in days with the girl heroine's bedroom serving as base of operations. Once the first part of the interaction is done and August 22 arrives, you'll be in the bedroom. To save your progress, select the first option from the menu to the right of the screen and you'll be prompted to select which memory card to save to. * Encounters with boys will allow for various actions or conversation snippets which are selected by highlighting then and pressing the "O" button.
