Sega Deals: Sega Superstars Tennis $20 at Gamestop

It’s not everyday a relatively newly released game sees such a dramatic price drop, but that’s exactly what’s happened to Sega Superstars Tennis. Gamestop is currently offering all console versions for $20 and the DS version for only $15 through May 1.

Other sites are saying poor sales have forced Gamestop into this price drop to clear inventory, but other retailers have yet to match Gamestop’s drastic move. Amazon currently has the game for $50 for next-generation consoles, and $40 and $22 for the PS2 and DS versions, respectively.

According to VG Chartz, the game has mustered about 51o,000 combined sales, which, if accurate, is a fair amount but certainly well below Sega’s estimated sales forecast.

    Besy Buy in Canada has this game at a regular price of $30. Guess the game sold like crap. I bought a copy and think it’s pretty decent. It doesn’t match a Mario Tennis game, but still pretty good. Some of the cut scenes and music are cheesey and lame, but the actual tennis playing itself is pretty good. It’s too bad the game didn’t sell better.
