A massive Yoshi hunt will soon take place in Australia and New Zealand to coincide with today’s launch of Mario Tennis Open! The hunt, entitled The Yoshi Chase, will involve tracking down a number of different-coloured Yoshis, playable in Mario Tennis Open, through corresponding QR codes released over the coming weeks.

The Black Yoshi and White Yoshi will be the first to be released but there are many more in the pipeline so keep your eyes peeled.

The Black Yoshi will be distributed through EB Game stores and the White Yoshi through JB Hifi stores across Australia and New Zealand to coincide with the first weekend of Mario Tennis Open release. Get yourself into stores to hunt down these great exclusive characters!

Mario Tennis Open is packed full of Mario-themed arcade tennis action. Choose from singles or doubles matches, single player and multiplayer modes and a variety of special games such as Super Mario Tennis, Ring Shot and Galaxy Rally. With easy-to-pick-up-and-play gameplay and a range of modes to suit your mood, you will be serving up a storm before you know it.
