CVG writes: "Virtua Tennis 2009 for Wii will hit shop shelves on June 19, Sega has confirmed - a week after the launch of the Wii MotionPlus accessory, which is out tomorrow.

The game features two motion control options - one that uses just the standard Wii Remote tech as you swing to hit the ball in time with an on-screen gauge, and an enhanced control option that uses the MotionPlus add-on to replicate your exact swing motion in the game.

The PC version's still down for June. The PS3 and 360 versions are out now..."

According to information just released by an admin from the Sega of America forums, Virtua Tennis 2009 will be delayed one month and now will be shipping in early June. Although there has been no official word on the delay (and the official website still shows May 2009), the admin mentions Sega is probably polishing off the Wii version.

The Wii version being completed pushes back the PS3, Xbox360, and PC versions as well. Hopefully the delay allows for more content to be added and better online experience (for PS3/360).

N4G Note: Interestingly, the Wii version will now compete with Tiger Woods 2010 during that release timeframe, and both are sports titles featuring Wii MotionPlus.

SEGA has been left a little red in the face, which pales literally to some of the red faces in Scotland over *their* Andy Murray getting pinned as English.

According to Tam Coyle, a Tartan Army spokesman, this error "is a new low." SEGA is working to fix 'the issue' in Virtua Tennis 2009 to prevent a flood of angry accents getting louder.

Sega has announced what is perhaps one of the biggest third party Wii games to date this week. TechRadar can also confirm that the new Wii version of the mighty Virtua Tennis WILL also make use of the new Wii MotionPlus controller tech.

While Sega and Nintendo's UK spokespeople remained schtum on the matter, TechRadar's un-named source confirmed that Nintendo's much-improved motion control tech will be used in the third-party tennis game from Sega, making it one of the first third-party games to make use of the new tech.

TechRadar will be amongst the first to preview Nintendo's Wii MotionPlus tech, which will be making its debut in May this year on Nintendo's very own Wii Sports Resort, in addition to Sega's Virtua Tennis and – no doubt – a welter of other Wii titles soon to be announced.

Over 40 vibrant court environments will be playable within single player, multiplayer and online modes giving Virtua Tennis 2009 an impressive online and offline depth for a Wii title."
