Play Four Players' Tennis (Europe) Online

Four Players' Tennis is one of those NES games that somehow slipped under the radar, but man, does it deliver when you've got friends over. You pick your court—grass, clay, or hard—and suddenly it's 1989 again, with four people crammed around a CRT yelling about missed backhands. The ball physics are weirdly satisfying, bouncing just unpredictably enough to keep everyone on their toes.

What I love is how quickly the chaos escalates. One minute you're casually volleying, the next someone's spiking the ball into the net like it owes them money. The doubles mode is where it really shines—teamwork dissolves fast when your partner keeps stealing your shots. It’s not polished like modern tennis sims, but that’s kind of the point. The pixelated players have this stiff charm, and the sound effects? Pure nostalgia crackle.

If you dig old-school multiplayer or just want an excuse to trash-talk your siblings, this one’s a solid pick. Just maybe keep a spare controller handy for when things get heated.
