Mario Golf (マリオゴルフ64 Mario Gorufu Rokujūyon, Mario Golf 64) is the first installment for the Mario Golf series and was released for the Nintendo 64 in 1999. It was developed by Camelot Software Planning and was published by Nintendo.
Why It Rocks
- The opening of this game is really funny and cute to watch. Even in the Game Boy Color port.
- This game is the perfect start of the Mario sports series of games.
- It has a lot of interesting modes.
- It also marks Baby Mario's first appearance in a Mario Sports game.
- Plum, Charlie, Sonny, Harry and Maple are well thought out and memorable.
- It also has a lot of great modes like Tournament Mode, Get Character, Ring Shot, etc.
- The Mini Golf mode is also fun for those who are beginners at Mario Golf.
- The sunset visuals in this game are beautiful.
- This game also has some great music like in every other Mario game.
- In the Game Boy Color port, the game has RPG elements.
- It has great controls.
- The first game where Jen Taylor voiced as Peach and Toad.
Bad Qualities
- While the Tournament Mode is awesome, it can be unforgiving at times.
- When you play alone, you don't get Mario or Luigi as a starter character. You have to unlock them by playing Get Character.
- Speaking of Get Character, you can't get all the characters in that mode too. For example, two other characters Maple and Metal Mario can only be unlocked by winning 50 and 108 Birdie Badges respectively on Tournament Mode.
- Metal Mario doesn't have a chromey voice, meaning he reuses the same voice as Mario.
- For some reason, Wario's shoes are pink instead of the usual green.
- The difficulty takes an incredible spike when trying to unlock Wario.
- While a good port, but the Game Boy Color has nothing to do with the Mario series.
