For anyone who has never played video game golf, after selecting a club and beginning your swing, a power bar will appear. It's great fun, but you won't be running across the fairway in this game's version of speed golf.Īs standard, you get a number of different clubs to select woods, irons, wedges, depending on the terrain you're hitting off of. Pretty self-evident thanks to that dynamite title, but it's worth highlighting because if you're expecting more of the dazzling spectacle of the mascot's more recent sporting output - games which take some real artistic licence with the rules of the nominal real-world sport - Camelot's first shot in this particular series is a much straighter affair. So, Mario Golf on N64 was almost the first Mario sports game, certainly the first on a home console you played on a TV, and it is what you'd expect: Golf, with Mario.
