For the first time on Game Boy™ Advance, you can choose to be:

• The unflappable Droopy Dog, whose legendary composure often leads to The vivacious McWolf, the unscrupulous public enemy number one;
• The superb blonde glamour girl, Bubbles Vavoom, prepared to unleash all her charm to win first place in the tournament;
• The formidable Butch, this semi-goofy dog is endowed with prodigious strength;
• Screwy Squirrel, the puzzling and completely off-the-wall squirrel;
• Dripple, Droopy’s son, is every bit as nonchalant as his father and an outstanding tennis player...

These six opponents will stop at nothing to win the tournament, since the colossal prize will allow the winner to achieve his or her most far-fetched dream! Droopy dreams of renovating his house; McWolf wants to buy a luxury car to win the heart of the ravishing Bubbles Vavoom; as for Butch, victory would open the door to a career in lyrical opera!
The serves, backhands, lobs, smashes, volleys… Let the games begin for these crazy cartoon characters!

Children and adults alike will delight in competing against their opponents, either according to the classic rules of tennis or in cartoon mode! To distract, taunt and even attack a rival, each player has fun traps and bonuses including hilarious special attack moves: time bombs, multiple balls, a giant net, hammer-rackets, steam rollers, springs, meteorite balls, cages and even pink hearts for Bubbles Vavoom!

Droopy one of the greatest Dog cartoons the world has ever known, is best recognized for his slapstick gags and hilarious adventures. This character is still being imitated today, over forty years after he was created. Droopy had been part of MGM’s theatrical cartoon line-up since 1943. After decades in show business, the beloved dog came to television as part of 1979's The Tom and Jerry Show. Additionally, 1990's Tom and Jerry Kids hosted a regular Droopy segment.
