'''World Court''' is a {{c|tennis}} arcade game, that was released by [[Namco]] in [[1988]], only in Japan; it runs on Namco's System 1 hardware, and was inspired by the [[1987]] [[Famicom]] game [[Family Tennis]].


'''World Court''' is a {{c|tennis}} [[arcade]] game that was released by [[Namco]] in [[1988]] only in Japan. It runs on Namco System 1 hardware, and was inspired by the [[1987]] [[Famicom]] game [[Family Tennis]]. A sequel named [[Super World Court]] was released in [[1992]].  
At the start of the game, players must select either "singles" (Player 1 v Player 2) or "doubles" (Player Team v CPU Team); they must then select one of twenty different players (ten male, eight female and two robot) before selecting one of three different courts (New York hard, London lawn and Paris clay). Players must then select whether they want their match to be one or three sets long.

The game was later ported to the [[PC Engine]] in the same year, released under the title {{nihongo|'''Pro Tennis World Court'''|プロテニスワールドコート|Puro Tenisu Wārudo Kōto}}. It was later released outside of Japan for the [[TurboGrafx-16]] under the title '''World Court Tennis'''. In this version, up to four players can compete together using the system's multi-tap accessory. In addition, a "Quest" mode was added which mimicked the popular [[Dragon Warrior]] series.


There are two different modes in this game - a single player can square off with the CPU or two players can compete against each other. There are also three different courts to choose from - New York (hard), London (lawn), and Paris (clay). Matches can either be one or three sets long, depending on the option that the player selects.  
A perfect port of the arcade game was developed for the [[Sharp X68000]] Japanese home computer by S.P.S. and published in 1990. A sequel called [[Super World Court]] was released in [[1992]] and included the console's ability to allow four player simultaneous play.
