PLAYING THEGAME
GAME 1
After you turn on the unit,
the message “WORLD CUP
TENNIS, YOUR RANK IS
SIXTEEN” will be scroll ing
onscreen. Your rank position
will depend on the match
result and the levels you select
to play. There are 6 games in

control the player’s position on
the right service court. Then
press the
SERVE/HIT button to
serve the ball. You should hit the
ball over the net into the opposite service court, or within any
line bounding this court. Just as
in real tennis, you will make
your next serve from the left

GAME 2
In game 2, the player can
select One-Round or ThreeRound matches. In a One-Round
match, the game rules are the
same as Game 1. In Three-
Round
game, the match consists of
three sets. If one side wins two
out of three sets, the match is
over. Before each set starts, the
message “SET 1,” “SET 2,” or
“SET 3” will appear onscreen.
GAME 3
The game rules are the same
as Game 1. In this game, the
player with the right keypad will
serve first in the first game of
each set and the computer serves
the ball in the second game. The
player with the left controller
serves in the third game; the
computer serves in the fourth
game, and so on.
SCORING
There are 6 games in a match.
The player who wins 6 games
first wins a “SET.”
(A player must win a set by
two games. So if a set is tied 5
games to 5, the set continues
until a player wins two games
more than his opponent.)
If a player wins his first point,
The legendary King Arthur brandished a magic sword,
Excalibur, from which we take our company name. With this
unique weapon in his hands, he could not be vanquished.
Although Excalibur Electronics can’t claim the
magical secrets of Merlin, King Arthur’s court
wizard, sometimes our patented technology
may make it seem as if we could.
We make you think.
his score is 15; on winning his
second point, his score is 30; on
winning his third point, his score
is 40; on winning his fourth
point he has won the game. The
score of each point will be
scrolling onscreen. A player
must win a game by two points.
If each player has scored three
points (40-40) the score is then
called “deuce.” If a player thenscores 2 points consecutively, he
wins the game. (The message
“DEUCE-A” (advantage) will
appear on-screen when any player scores the next point after
deuce.
