In this highly realistic tennis game...

Its always a plus, in my book at least, when the dev has a solid sense of humor...thanks for the work and I hope it helps a youngster get into game programming.

Thanks, I spared no expense!

It's a very deep sense of humor, too, as actual 8-bit sports games were unironically marketed as "highly realistic" or similar. In fairness, those copywriters were probably referring to the simulation code, and not necessarily the graphics, being realistic for the standards ofnthe day.
