Play GrandSlam - The Tennis Tournament '92 (Japan) Online

GrandSlam – The Tennis Tournament '92 is one of those Sega Genesis sports games that somehow slipped under the radar, which is a shame because it’s way more fun than it has any right to be. The second you start a match, you’re thrown into these fast, almost arcadey rallies where timing a perfect topspin shot actually feels like a little victory. No fancy licenses or real player names here—just bright, chunky sprites and this weirdly satisfying *thwack* sound when you nail a serve.

I’ll admit, the AI can be brutal if you crank up the difficulty, but that’s part of the charm. Doubles mode gets chaotic in the best way, especially with a friend—expect a lot of yelling when someone misses an easy volley. It’s not trying to be a simulator, and that’s why it works. You’ll probably burn through a few matches before realizing you’ve been glued to the screen for an hour.

If you’ve got a soft spot for early '90s sports games that don’t overcomplicate things, this one’s a total winner.
