Gameplay

The two tennis players in the video game are shown in pink and blue. Almost all rules from a real tennis game also apply in this video game. Except usually "out of bounds". Any ball that hits the outer line of the game field is counted as a ball in playing field. For technical reasons, hanging on to the low resolution of the playing field, the tennis ball is represented as a rectangle rather than a circle.

Activision Tennis was later republished in gaming consoles in the form of game controllers.

In 1983 with Real Sports Tennis a similar game.
