SEGA to Preview Virtua Tennis for Android at CES 2012
While CES is mostly known as an event to showcase the latest tech hardware, software makers do make an appearance from time to time. This year SEGA is using their ties to the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play to showcase Virtua Tennis Challenge, and Android version of the popular tennis title. SEGA says the game has been designed with touchscreen controls specifically in mind, but it has been designed to map flawlessly with the slide-out gamepad of the Xperia Play. Though graphics probably won’t look as great as the PS3 version (pictured above), Virtua Tennis has been optimized for devices using Qualcomm’s Snapdragon platform, which should offer a respectable presentation on mobile devices. Here is SEGA’s full statement.
