This.

Seriously, setting up games is way more troublesome than it needs to be.
Unless you do military style planning on here beforehand, playing online with friends just ain't happening.

For example, when I see the orange LED light up on my 3DS, I sometimes check the friend list, and if I see someone else is now playing the game, I go and set up a room. But the chances of that person joining are so slim, it's pretty much a waste of time.

All this (and most online Nintendo games) needs is for a little pop-up message to appear on the upper screen, saying "so-and-so is waiting for players" or something like that. Then anyone currently playing the game (as long as their wireless is switched on) could see the message and try to join.

Anyway, I shall no doubt be playing online tonight, mainly after 9 to pass the time until you know what.
So hopefully be able to get some more N-E games going then. So far I've only played against Aneres11, welsh_gamer, Calv and Dazzybee. And still not played a doubles match!

Agreed! A pop up would be extremely handy.

Add gaming invites. Get rid of GAME NOTES and swap it with INSTANT MESSAGE and we're all away. Nintendo, sort your lives out!!!

Just to let you guys know (because I've not properly been around in forever), I too have this game and can play online. I don't think the game is particularly good but I'm happy to make up the numbers and be easy fodder for y'all! FC is now in my profile!

I'm late to the party, but I'm still hoping some of you are playing Mario Tennis Open online once in a while.

@welsh_gamer, please add me to the list if you please.

I do check this thread regularly and I'd like to play against you @dazzybee and others too. I haven't played the game much though (not because it's bad - because it's not - no, it's because of the other great games I've been playing lately). So not too sure how big of a challenge I'd be at this stage. I'll be on later this afternoon at around 2pm if anyone wants to play?
