Technology Tennis madness

Wow, I just ran into a really hilarious bug(?) at Wii Sports tennis!! I was playing on my own, with and against the computer.

It was me (パト 639pt) and Hiroshi (ひろし 0pt) VS Sera(?) pro (セラープロ 1900pt) and Tetsuaki pro (てつあきプロ 1900pt). Sera served a fast one that I hit pretty clumsily, sending it all the way into the audience. Booo.

It would have ended there, but would you believe that Sera ran and jumped over the fence into the audience... and hit my ball back! I hit it again (this time keeping it on the court), but Sera was still stuck squirming in the audience and couldn't get back to defend! Hahaha!!!

Of course I won the match! :) Now I'm at 711pt or something like that, getting closer to becoming pro (at 1000pt).


Update: I found this interesting list of all of the computer's players (Japanese) in order of skill. Sera is 2nd, Tetsuaki is 3rd. My loser of a teammate Hiroshi (ok, sometimes he tries) is 60th, the worst!

Est-ce que tu joues au tennis? J'ai été cordeuse de tennis à Montréal pendant 7 ans pour www.tenniszon.com
Faudra que j'essaye Wii Sports tennis.
Je vivais pour le tennis à Montréal.
Au Japon, c'est la musique!

Moi j'ai jamais joué au tennis je crois, sauf sur le Wii. :)
Tu devrais certainement essayer Wii Sports, tu serais surement bonne dès le début!

Haha, great news William! So far here we've just been playing Wii Sports.
I tried Elebits last weekend and it seemed fun, but otherwise I have no clue!

If you connect your Wii online, let me know your Wii# so we can share Mii's. :)

i'll let you know if we do that. but what's a mii? everythings in japanese on ours, so basically doing stuff is trial and error.

A Mii is your look-alike character on the Wii, that you create in the 似顔絵チャンネル. :)
Good luck with figuring it out! Once you're setup it should get a bit easier. Don't hesitate to ask if you're blocked somewhere.

That sounds really funny! Yes, we need screen grabs!
Those Power Station™ chargers from JOYTECH are now being advertised on their site at a preorder price of £25, although that includes delivery in the UK. If you want one I can send it to you from here.

Wow thanks a lot for the offer! Though that would probably bring the total to about £30 (or near ¥7000), so I might stick with normal rechargeables instead.
But thanks anyway, I truly appreciate!!

And yes I'll try to capture next time something weird happen, but often it happens just too fast. :) I did have Eliza pro jump in the audience a few days ago. My score at tennis is now about 950pt.
