The Game

Passing Shot, the Sega coin-op sports sensation comes to the home computer...!

Passing Shot allows you to participate in championship tennis at world class standard, visiting locations all over the globe, in singles or doubles, over clay and grass courts.

Playing Instructions

Press Fire to start. If you wish to play doubles, then Fire must be pressed on both sets of controls. Input your initials by moving the marker across the letterpad then select the difficulty level - higher levels start you further into the world stages and put you up against tougher opposition.

Passing Shot lets you play the deciding set in a three set match. If you play doubles then the two players are on the same side, against computer-controlled doubles pairs. The tramlines are included in-bounds when playing doubles.

The view of the court in Passing Shot is represented from spectator level for service, then switches to top-down perspective for rallies - this allows the best view and control over the action.

Strokes

There are four types of stroke in Passing Shot - Flat, Slice, Topspin and Lob.

Serve the ball by selecting your shot as the ball flashes. The display will then alter to the top-down view. The joystick will control the movement of your player, but when the joystick fire button is pressed, the different directions control the shot type.

Passing Shot follows the normal rules of tennis, and incorporates all the usual features - double-faults, body touches, direct returns, aces, service aces, etc. You are required to reach six games to win the set, as per the rules of tennis. If you manage to win the match, the next round will take place at another location in the world.
