9. Winning By Shattering Your Opponent's Racket - Mario Tennis Aces

Mortal Kombat has Fatalities, Titanfall has Executions and Dragon Ball has Dramatic Finishes. Now even Mario Tennis has a way to end opponents in style:

The Racket K.O.

Done by maxing out your special meter to charge up a Special Shot (basically a signature animation-blast), they're supposed to be reserved for bagging points by planting a hit in whatever part of the court your foe has left unattended.

However, what's far more fun is aiming your spruced up shot directly at the other player.

Doing so three times will see them attempt to block the shot, only for their racket to shatter in slow motion, as the sheer force of the blast nets you a K.O. victory.

Sublime.
